According to the "news" I just saw, Biden says Harris is not the person for the job.

I guess he figured that out by observing her performance in her current job.

As much fun as it is for some folks to imagine a Harris nomination to the SCOTUS, I don't for a moment believe that she would accept the nomination even if it was made.

That is a one very ambitious laughing hyena and she has very big political ambitions no matter how miserably unqualified she is.

She's a post turtle that's currently "riding shotgun" to the #1 seat of power in the country and she's not about to be shelved by being put into a SCOTUS seat and left to gather dust.

It would be great fun to watch her constantly laugh like a maniac trying to get through some serious jurisprudence questioning in a Senate hearing process but it just isn't going to happen.

Yeah, watching that whole Biden administration is like watching Wile E. Coyote blow himself up and fall off the cliff over and over and over again.

He needs to get it done BECAUSE of the midterms.

He and his party don't have any of their Marxist promises to show for his 1st year so far, so they'll see this is a "bone" to throw to the Leftist base in lieu of any actual "red meat".

I think it will instead have the usual unintended consequence of motivating the opposition when he nominates whatever Leftist, black, female, "woke" lunatic he his handlers decide on.

I say that with all good confidence having seen the clown-car of hard Left whack-jobs that have paraded before Senate confirmation hearings thus far.

I think one thing his people are happy about is getting money to stay home and not work. They have also been told that the rich paid the tab and that is only the beginning of correcting wrongs. Didn't have to pay rent is a bragging right for Brandon as well. People seem to think 2 years of not paying rent is good. What they don't understand is the "rich" aren't actually paying the tab. They probably won't learn that till after 2024?

Is Pigmeat Markham still alive?

These topics always make me think of David Bromberg's rendition an old song made popular by Bessie Smith:


The '70s wasn't all Saturday Night Fever.

Regarding Justice Breyer: Rumors are starting to circulate that (whoever is in charge) might have pulled the rug out from under the old boy in order to prevent another RBG standoff. That would make perfect sense, in a DNC syndicate/cartel world.

So, my thoughts on this after reading a bunch of articles.

Here are my thoughts on who should be a Supreme Court Justice, tell me if I'm wrong in any way:

My Belief: A SCJ should be an individual who can look at a law or case presented, and validate whether or not the law is faithfully executed in accordance with the US Constitution and other Constitutionally-binding orders and decisions. The individual should make the decision purely from a logic-based approach by reading the language of the US Constitution and statutes, and preside accordingly.]

Democrats: A SCJ needs to provide representation to individual groups. E.g. there is no black woman, or LGBT on the Supreme Court, so one must be elected for proper representation of that group. Decisions should be rendered to further the progress of these groups in changing times.


Interested in others opinions, if I'm misrepresenting or am wrong about this?
