Rep. Joseph Morelle of New York, the top Democrat on the House Administration Committee, sent a letter to colleagues informing them of his intent to file the resolution, which would kickstart what’s traditionally a cumbersome amendment process.
“This amendment will do what SCOTUS failed to do — prioritize our democracy,” Morelle said in a statement to AP.
This is the only way to change that. I don’t have much hope that it’ll pass, though.
But SCOTUS can choose how to interpret this amendment however they choose.
And a President can fire them. Or more. Because they said he could.
What’s he waiting for then?
He’s too virtuous. He hasn’t processed that anything he does is legal.
So he leads be example. Or something.
Maybe someone should explain it to him before 4 PM?
After 11, but before 4, and not between 12:30 and 14:00 because that’s naptime
Obi Wan is our only hope 😔, and I think he has registered it yet.
Under the new authority they’ve granted him, he can also “fire” them, if you get my meaning.
you mean set their homes ablaze while they sleep because of an alleged terrorist Hamas cell in the basement?
As fucked up as the Gaza genocide is, it may surprise you to know that it’s not related to literally everything in the sphere of politics.
Out of a canon?
Pass? The Republican controlled House won’t even bring it up for a vote!
It’s the only legislative way to change that.
There is a way that Biden could change that completely unilaterally, but he’s not going to do it.
Impeachment. Impeachment is easier, more direct, and since the justices can theoretically interpret the amendment any way they wish far more likely to be effective.
Yeah they’ve already wiped their asses with the spirit of the Constitution. There are currently in rules for the but not for me mode. It’s still a good gesture.
