America, our protector

there's a couple of things I just don't get about America - this is one of them


their Supreme court is supposed to be and should be above political bias ---------------------- but, they are very very open about stacking it with political biases - up to the eyeballs


what a very very odd way to run a nation ---------


DeSantis Floats ‘7-2 Conservative Majority’ on Supreme Court
With his 2024 campaign imminent, Ron DeSantis pointed to how he could tilt the court further to the right.


“You would have a 7-2 conservative majority on the Supreme Court that would last a quarter-century,” Mr. DeSantis said on Monday during an address to the National Religious Broadcasters Convention in Orlando. “So this is big stuff, very important that that gets done right.”

The governor also seemed to criticize Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr., who was appointed by President George W. Bush in 2005 but has sometimes voted with the court’s liberal wing. Mr. DeSantis warned that replacing a justice like Justice Thomas with a jurist in the mold of Chief Justice Roberts would “actually see the court move to the left.” He also indicated that the next president could have an opportunity to replace Justice Sonia Sotomayor, a liberal who has been on the court since 2009.
