PELOSI says she does not support the bill to expand the supreme court, and won't bring it to floor

1. My guess is that the votes aren't there,
particularly in the Senate.

3. Maybe wait until the RWNJs on the Court do something outrageous
Was actually surprised they didn’t do what The Former Guy wanted last fall.

4. This is what political wisdom looks like
The bill is counterproductive to Biden's task force looking at the Supremes.
Brava, Speaker Pelosi!!!

5. She knows her history.
FDR floated the same idea (and for the same reason: the conservative Court was mired in the legal consensus of the 19th century) and faced a tremendous backlash which most likely cost Democrats and liberals seats in both Houses.
Better to wait.

9. I'm Torn
That an evil dumb aberration like Drumpf appointed 3, one at the very end of his term.....way later than the Merrick Garland nomination that McTurtle stole.......well it stinks.
We play nice and they kick us to the curb.
It just isn’t right or fair.

13. Waiting until after the midterms is a good idea.
That also gives the president’s commission plenty of time for gathering the needed data/arguments, etc.
