This is the sort of thing where Dems on higher education committees should be saying things like they view this as illegal, and expect they will withdraw funds from schools who go along with Trump when they regain power.

My immodest reform proposal: offer a reasonable long-term solution in exchange for not blowing it up.
Noting that between income rules & age, the initial two seats could net swing 4 votes toward democracy.

I suggest 1) offer a reasonable constitutional Amend. on SCOTUS reform: income restrictions*, shadow docket*, terms & seat # allocated by presidency; then immediately 2) pass a law that +2 seats every six months, unless the Amend is ratified, w/ jurisdiction stripped. 3) watch 1 fly to ratification

This is a good piece with a whopper worthy of correction: Franken was pressured to resign because 8 women accused him of harassment, not “cancelled” for “making jokes” (the gross picture while a woman was asleep?). Tina Brown & Doug Jones, remember?

It isn’t even “cause”! It’s “allow” - Republicans have the majority in both chambers and ought to be able to govern. Voters should get to see that. Then Democrats should exact a hefty price.

Pass 2 by congressional majority. Offer 1 as a compromise to diffuse adding 2 seats every six months. This is a recommendation for how to use a bare majoritarian approach to achieve lasting reform. One that has institutional and political advantages to lots of jurisdiction stripping.

*these could just fall under a reassertion of congressional supremacy or go into the statute whether at 2 or independently

Except death penalty appeals (unless these aren’t statutorily eliminated AND the existing one’s are commuted, as ought to happen, though I might include the exception anyway for unforeseen situations)
