Top Democrats in the Senate and Congress are calling for the number of justices sitting on the Supreme Court to be expanded in dramatic reaction to the court’s leaked majority opinion which indicated that Roe v. Wade may be overturned.

“I donโ€™t care how the draft leaked. Thatโ€™s a sideshow. What I care about is that a small number of conservative justices, who lied about their plans to the Senate, intend to deprive millions of women of reproductive care,” Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) tweeted Wednesday.

“Codifying Roe isn’t enough. We must expand the court,” he wrote.

“End the filibuster. Codify #RoeVWade with a national law protecting abortion rights. Expand the Supreme Court,” tweeted Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) on Tuesday, stating her belief that protecting the unborn is a “horrifying injustice.”

Since 1988, Republicans have won the popular vote exactly one time, but have selected 6 of the last 9 SCOTUS Justices. Expand the court or an antidemocratic minority will continue to control our laws & our bodies,” tweeted Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN).

The Democrat calls for SCOTUS expansion come despite concerns from liberal Justice Stephen Breyer, who in April last year warned against “packing” the court because such a move could “erode” public trust and delegitimize the institution.

“It is wrong to think of the Court as another political institution,” Breyer said to Harvard Law School. “And it is doubly wrong to think of its members as junior league politicians.”

“Structural alteration motivated by the perception of political influence can only feed that perception, further eroding that trust,” he said.

According to the leaked draft published by Politico on Monday, Justice Breyer had himself dissented from the majority opinion written by Justice Samuel Alito, that has Democrats calling for the controversial restructuring of the Court.

“The rule of law has weathered many threats, but it remains sturdy. I hope and expect that the Court will retain its authority, an authority that my stories have shown was hard-won. But that authority, like theย rule of law, depends on trust, a trust that the Court is guided by legal principle, not politics,” Breyer said.

    Neither the corruption within the court nor the poor leadership of Roberts would improve. Y packing the court.

    COURT PACKING is precisely what America needs – provided America’s courts are packed with biblically qualified justices exclusively adjudicating per the Bible’s triune and integral moral law – the Ten Commandments and their respective statutes and judgments.

    Of course, this was made impossible with Article 9’s Christian test ban by which mandatory biblical qualifications for civil leaders were also eliminated, resulting in nothing but nincompoops, scoundrels, incompetents, immoral reprobates, and outright criminals to rule (not lead) America.

    Promote the Constitution and your complicit in the legislation and adjudications coming from all three branches of the biblically seditious Constitution.

    For more, see Chapter 6 “Article 3: Judicial Usurpation” of free online book “Bible Law vs. the United States Constitution: The Christian Perspective” at Bible versus Constitution dot org. Click on the top entry on our Online Books page and scroll down to Chapter 6.

      So REVEREND Weiland, you want the SCOTUS, set up by the Constitution, to rule according to Levitical-Deuteronomical concepts, thus overruling the Bill of Rights and Article 2, Section 9, the RELIGIOUS test ban.

      We know you’d only permit white Protestant Christians to serve on the Court, or any other public office for that matter. As a matter of fact, you’d only permit office holders to be APPOINTED, not elected, by supposed Dominionist “Christians” like yourself.

      However, the Constitution DOES NOT usurp the Bible as the United States of America, which you detest, IS NOT a theocratic dictatorship as you’d have it. Nor is the Unites States only meant for white Caucasian Nordic Aryan Christians as you have claimed.

    Let’s see. Nine justices and the ruling didn’t go our way, so maybe we should add another justice. No, that won’t work either, then we would have a tie, so let’s add two more justices. We need to make sure they are liberal though. Then things would go our way. But wait, what if the new justices felt like doing the right thing? Maybe we should add four more justices. That’s the ticket.
