What do you do when you’re a doddering old man who is in his last few months in power, and you’re desperate to leave your mark on the world in those last few months?
Well, if you’re Joe Biden, you start seriously floating an idea that literally everyone thought was insane a mere ten years ago because of the affect that it would have on the political structure and process in Washington.
Yet, that’s exactly what shaky Joe is doing: proposing insane things. And one of the reasons that he proposed the particular insanity that he pushed today is because he is angry about the pro-gun rulings that the Supreme Court has handed down over the last few years.
Tom Ozimek gives us the details:
President Joe Biden said in a July 24 speech from the Oval Office that he plans to call for Supreme Court reform in his final stretch as America’s commander-in-chief.
President Biden made the remarks after explaining his decision not to seek reelection and laying out his plans for his final six months in office.
“Over the next six months, I’ll be focused on doing my job as president,” he said, highlighting key goals such as boosting economic growth, lowering inflation, tightening gun control, and safeguarding the planet from what he described as a “climate crisis.”
“And I’m going to call for Supreme Court reform because this is critical to our democracy, Supreme Court reform.”
That last one is what we’re talking about today (in addition to, of course, his pushes for more gun control). And let’s be honest here, what Biden means by Supreme Court reform is that he is going to try to force the court to become something that he can force to take the more politically left-leaning side on issues. As if we need more anti-Constitutional justices on the Supreme Court beyond the three that are already there.
Make no mistake, these efforts are Biden’s push to leave a legacy of political despotism in his name, and we can’t let him have the wins that he wants in his last few months in office.
