CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY JULY 18, 2024
THE FOUNDERS UNDERSTOOD THE NECESSITY OF SEPARATION OF POWERS. PRESIDENT BIDEN AND THE DEMOCRATS WANT TO CHANGE THE SUPREME COURT SO THEY CAN EVENTUALLY PACK IT WITH LIBERAL JUDGES AND RETURN TO THE DAYS WHEN JUDGES, NOT ELECTED LEGISLATORS, MADE LAW FROM THE BENCH.
THE WASHINGTON POST REPORTS THAT IN COMING DAYS, BIDEN WILL FINALIZE PLANS TO ENDORSE MAJOR CHANGES IN THE COURT, INCLUDING THE ESTABLISHMENT OF TERM LIMITS FOR JUSTICES AND AN ENFORCEABLE ETHICS CODE. HE IS ALSO REPORTEDLY CONSIDERING A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO ELIMINATE BROAD IMMUNITY FOR PRESIDENTS AND OTHER CONSTITUTIONAL OFFICE HOLDERS.
THIS IS A PLOY TO TURN OUT MORE OF HIS DISAFFECTED BASE AND STOP THE BLEEDING ON CAPITOL HILL BY GROWING NUMBERS OF DEMOCRATS WHO WANT HIM TO QUIT HIS RE-ELECTION BID.
THESE PROPOSALS DON’T HAVE A CHANCE OF PASSING CONGRESS BY THE REQUIRED MARGINS AND IF THE ELECTION GOES THE REPUBLICAN’S WAY, THEY WILL HAVE NO CHANCE AT ALL, BUT IT SHOWS WHAT THE LEFT INTENDS TO DO IF THEY GET BACK THE POWER AND IT’S DANGEROUS.
FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT TRIED PACKING THE COURT TO ACHIEVE HIS POLICY GOALS. HE FAILED. LET’S HOPE BIDEN IN WHAT APPEARS HIS WANING MONTHS IN OFFICE ALSO FAILS. I’M CAL THOMAS.
