Schumer: 'Nothing is off the table' if GOP moves forward with Ginsburg replacement
By Jordain Carney - 09/19/20 03:14 PM EDT

Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) told Democrats on Saturday that "nothing is off the table" if Republicans move forward this year with filling the Supreme Court vacancy created by Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg's death.

“Let me be clear: if Leader McConnell and Senate Republicans move forward with this, then nothing is off the table for next year. Nothing is off the table," Schumer told the Senate Democratic caucus, according to a source on the call.

The rare Saturday conference call comes as Senate Democrats are trying to strategize ahead of a looming election-year Supreme Court fight sparked by Ginsburg's death, which gives President Trump an opening to put a third justice on the court.

yep. Nothing's been off the table the whole dang time... so the threat is pretty meaningless.

The rats’ “nothing is off the table” attitude is exactly why we need constitutionalists on the court now.

Yo Chuckie,  Give a call to that Punch Drunk Dung Beetle Harry Reid.  Tell him how well he did to advance SC Judges appointed.

Chuckie is making threats and Chuckie is going to go full ballistic with any and every fraudulent maneuver that he can come up with to ensure that Trump doesn't appoint another justice.

Count on it.

The Dems have figured out decades ago that it is easier to enact law by the black robed lifers than to do the job the Constitution requires them to do, ie passing laws.

Americans do not like the laws the Dems pass, so their job is abdicated to the judiciary to enact.

This interferes with the strategy

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

How exactly would this change anything from what it's been the past 3 1/2 years?
If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"? Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Things that were already (apparently) on the table:
1. Shooting up GOP baseball games
2. Allowing supporters to burn cities.
3. Staging coups against democratically elected president.
4. FBI collusion/perjury traps.
5. Leaking classified information.

   After you've Burned and occupied cities, Looted stores, Murdered Police  AND this Pandemic which you overly dramatized, the only thing left on the table that you haven't tried is to nuke a city. 
   Go F yourself chuckie.
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

Which is one of my biggest fears.... that the deep state, in conjunction with foreign enemies, might get that desperate.  Reminiscent of the TV Series Jericho.

  • Dems-greatest existential threat to USA republic!
Schumer is such a putz.  One can usually use him as a barometer.  If he goes left, we know the true course is right.  How he stays as leader of the Dem coalition in the senate is a mystery.  He is an extreme putz.

Chuckie doesn't take a dump without checking with Pelosi to besure it is okay.

See what the Botox Babe does and you'll see Chuckie do his parrot imitation.

Serious question: How can they pack the court if the President doesn't nominate and the Senate does not confirm? The only way that happens is with a Dem President and Senate.

You kind of answered your own question, He is an extreme putz. That is exactly what the Democrat party has become, extreme.

If you believe the polls, they are a few months away from controlling everything except the Supreme Court.  I suppose it would require a strong majority in the senate, but Schumer is dumb enough to push it forward and set off a civil war.
