Sen Chris Coons (D-DE) invented the newest Democrat Big Lie when he claimed today that the Republicans are the ones “packing the court” with their nomination of Judge Barrett to fill RBG’s seat and bring SCOTUS back to its 150-year level of nine justices. But his real slam is against the Democrat constituencies who he thinks are dense enough to believe him.
Leading leftwing lights go off the rails on Judge Amy Coney Barrett. Bill Maher declared nationally that “she’s a fucking nut” and a Catholic who “speaks in tongues”. Democrat commentator Keith Olbermann advises all that she “should be prosecuted” and “removed from our society”. Given Judge Barrett’s vitae and reputation, these men most clearly expose the evil heart of the Democratic Party and its dim assessment of the American electorate.
“America is sleepwalking into soft totalitarianism.” So argue several survivors from post-war communist East Europe. A revealing interview (here) with author and commentator Rod Dreher gives basis for that argument (and substantiates those found in these pages). “In the Orwellian, Soviet, Stalinist society, the state-controlled people by inflicting pain and terror on them. But in the soft totalitarianism that I see coming here, the state will control people—and not only states, but even more importantly, corporations and institutions like universities will control people by manipulating their access to the economy and to status and to all the markers of middle-class life.” And this is only the first step, which in California is in aggressive advance (here).
[update] WHO now opposes lockdowns. The World Health Organization has come out against lockdowns as a C19 response policy, stating that these are "a terrible, ghastly, global catastrophe". I draw you kind attention to the 11oct20 update to 'Crimes Against Humanity'.
[13oct20 update] Biden doesn’t know, has forgotten, or has yet to be told what his policies would be on everything from packing the court to regulatory reform. All candidates in our history have made it a point to inform voters of their governance desiderata which they consider their strong points. Not so with Bumblebrain, whose forte has been reeling off Big Lies, well documented in these pages since he became the Dems’ nominee.
Another shot in the shorts of our communally held sensibilities. From the party of low-lifes we have the latest contribution. Sen Mazie Hirono (D-HI) asked Judge Amy Coney Barrett if she has ever sexually assaulted someone (here). They truly are a party of evil scumbags.
They know their constituencies are to dumb to know the difference between packing and then there is this -
Biden takes heat after saying confirming Barrett would not be 'constitutional’
Biden is facing pushback to his claim that Republican efforts to confirm Amy Coney Barrett to the Supreme Court are not 'constitutional'

I doubt the socialists will discuss Catholicism during the confirmation hearings. Nearly three-quarters of citizens think that there should be no religious litmus test for judges and justices. I do credit the American people for understanding freedom of religion. I don’t know what the other one- quarter thinking but 3/4s are getting it right. Just a lot of first pounding trying to avoid the inevitable - a court that will leave policymaking to the legislative bodies and refrain from judicial policymaking which is the antithesis of our constitution.

Pubber shenanigans, "...since 2016 the state has been gripped by partisan warfare between Democratic Gov. Roy Cooper and a Republican legislature that has limited his power to defy them. In the past 10 years, Republicans drew maps and passed voting laws that repeatedly have been struck down as unfair, with one map judged to have targeted Black voters “with surgical precision.” North Carolina has become a microcosm of America: Cities and suburbs have grown bluer, White rural areas have grown redder, and, when one party wins, it makes the place inhospitable for the other one."

re: Court packing. Like everything else that is necessary for the Leftinistas to continue with their evilness and deception, words must be hijacked, skewed from the original (and proper) Precise meaning, and redefined into something different. The bastardization of language.
