Pelosi says she won't bring bill to expand Supreme Court to the floor
By Joseph Choi - 04/15/21 12:03 PM EDT

Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said Thursday she has "no plans" to bring a Democratic-led bill to expand the Supreme Court to the House floor for a vote, while saying such an idea is "not out of the question."

Pelosi was asked during a press briefing if she supported a bill brought forward by Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.) to expand the Supreme Court by four seats and if she would bring it to the House floor.

"No. I support the president's commission to study such a proposal, but frankly I'm not — right now, we're back, our members, our committees are working. We're putting together the infrastructure bill and the rest," Pelosi said.

Correct.  She'll trot it out when Biteme's "bipartisan commission" returns the predictable conclusion soon.

The Check hasn't cleared yet.  Piglosi needs to wait 10 days for funds access.

In other words, the lines will be stealth-inserted into another bill that will be passed through the Senate by reconciliation scam.

Is Nadler filling his shorts on camera again?
