Is the book about why daddy is in prison for a dimebag?
Are you complaining? Or is this another example of supporting the policy but being outraged at the lack of outrage?
And I wouldn't consider something happening 150 years ago as "precedent". By definition, sure. It counts. But 150 years?
I'd be more concerned with this being the new norm. Now there is recent precedent, so as soon as a party has the ability they can just add however many justices they need to move the majority.
What the Republicans did was crooked. (Garland, Barrett)
What the Democrats are doing is crooked.
Lifetime appointments need to go away.
Should they be elected? Washington has proven they aren't responsible enough to handle it.

Yes it counts. And as I said it doubly counts given George Washingtons participation and the Republican politician common propensity for invoking the founding fathers and originalist arguments as a principal of conservative basis.
Suddenly the founding fathers don't count? Constitutional originalists mean to reinterpret the document and founding father intent this go around?
I know you are but what am I ?!?!

@Hauler and lest you missed My post above. I'm not even arguing in favor of the move.I just simply see it as an extension of party focused politicking that has been pervasive for an extended period of time.
And I don't think even the conversation or the move destroys the institution in some unique way.
You don't think the process is broken?

Lifetime appointments.
Strategic retirements.
Rushed replacements after a death.
Delayed votes because waaaaah.

Of course I do.
That's my point. This is nothing new. Just the same gradient. The only reason I'm even in this thread is because a post that made me laugh acting like this is the end of the judicial branch, Biden is doing something totally new we can't imagine.
My point isn't that things are great. It's that acting like Biden adding justices would be a new harm to the court, versus all the previous congressional fuckery, is dramatic exacerbation.
it's about how Daddy is still in prison while Kamala fights his exoneration and suppresses evidence in order to save her political career and protect her friends.
if it hasn't happened for 150 years and is happening for purely political interests, the word you're searching for is "unprecedented". It will completely erode public confidence in the neutrality of the court. Or are you convinced that surely the Republicans won't do the same thing when they achieve a simple majority in Congress, and eventually a despot won't use this simple lever to keep one party in power indefinitely.

Venezuela: Chávez Allies Pack Supreme Court
The Venezuelan Congress dealt a severe blow to judicial independence by packing the country’s Supreme Court with 12 new justices, Human Rights Watch said today. A majority of the ruling coalition, dominated by President Hugo Chávez’s party, named the justices late yesterday, filling seats...
