Isn’t the Supreme Court a higher power and already ruled on this? The Biden Administration is such an abuse of power, they don’t even know what the constitution is.

Does anyone find it stunning that our devoutly Catholic president is not having his justice department filing law suits to protect the most innocent among us, the ones without a voice, the most innocent!

Adding more justices to the court would only be a temporary fix. What needs to be done is getting Kavanaugh and other Trump appointees off of it and replacing them with liberal justices.

Congress could simply preempt it via legislation, but I guess Dems have no interest in that.
