Democrats Will Steal the Supreme Court

The left wants to “fundamentally transform” the Supreme Court and our country in the process. We must not let that happen.

Two interviews Sunday by high-profile Democrats made it clear that the left is plotting to steal control of the Supreme Court if Biden wins in 14 days.

Sen. Chris Coons of Delaware is very close to Joe Biden. He was interviewed by CNN’s Jake Tapper, who questioned the senator on the issue of packing the court by expanding the number of justices on it. Coons replied:

Jake, like Joe Biden, I’m not a fan of expanding the court. We have a few weeks here to see whether there are four Republicans who will step back from this precipice [of confirming Judge Barrett]. … The Republican majority is responsible for racing forward with this extremely unqualified nominee, unqualified because of her extreme judicial philosophy…

We need to focus on that, and then if we happen to … have a President Biden, we have to look at what the right steps are to rebalance our federal judiciary.

Tapper pressed for a more direct response about whether that meant adding additional justices to the Supreme Court that Biden/Schumer/Pelosi/AOC can fill, and Coons said, “Yes.”

Meanwhile, on ABC News, George Stephanopoulos asked Speaker Nancy Pelosi about the “arrows in her quiver” she claimed to have to stop Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s nomination.

Pelosi answered, “Well, we’ll see… What I’m talking about is how we win this election, because we have to offset whatever this court may do.”

It is absolutely clear that if Joe Biden wins the White House, and if Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi control Congress next year, Democrats will steal the Supreme Court by packing it with left-wing activists. Some progressive leaders are urging them to create as many as five new seats.

My friends, there is nothing in the Constitution about the size of the Supreme Court. Over the course of our nation’s history it has been changed four times, last settling at nine justices in 1869, 151 years ago. And it only takes an act of Congress to add or subtract justices.

If Pelosi and Schumer pass legislation expanding the number of justices to whatever they need to have a majority on the high court, there is no way that “President Biden” would veto that legislation. And “President Harris” would eagerly sign it too!

The left wants to “fundamentally transform” the Supreme Court and our country in the process. We must not let that happen.

Lyin’ Biden

As I noted last week, some percentage of voters are leaning toward Joe Biden because they think he can unite the country. There may be some people at your church or in your family who don’t like Trump’s tweets or his style, and think Biden is a nice guy, even if they don’t agree with him on everything.

But he’s not a nice guy!

He lies repeatedly in his stump speeches about things that have been proven to be false. And he’s deliberately smearing the president — and the American people — in the worst possible way.

During his address Sunday in Durham, North Carolina, Biden talked about his son Beau’s service in Iraq and then blasted the president for allegedly calling our veterans “losers” and “suckers.”

Those false charges are from an Atlantic story that has been repudiated by 21 current and former officials, including John Bolton, who is no fan of the president. Yet Biden continues to repeat this outrageous lie.

But Biden’s family has made millions from shady deals with the communist Chinese, who have millions of Muslims in concentration camps and are forcing Christians to replace pictures of Jesus with communist leaders. (See next item.)

Because of Joe Biden’s appeasement, it is likely that our sons and daughters will someday have to confront communist China’s growing military. And Biden has the audacity to question the president’s patriotism!

Biden also repeated the disgusting smear that the president called neo-Nazis and white supremacists “very fine people” after the 2017 Charlottesville demonstrations. I know I have mentioned this before, but it has become part of Biden’s standard stump speech and it is a lie.

Biden is intentionally stoking hatred of the president. And he is stoking racial division, making it much less likely that we will have racial reconciliation.

No, Biden is not a nice guy!

More Emails

Devan Cooney, Hunter Biden’s former business partner, has provided Breitbart’s Peter Schweizer with access to 26,000 emails, separate from the mysterious laptop, providing additional details of the Hunter Biden’s business dealings with foreign regimes.

Cooney is currently in jail for a financial fraud scheme. Devon Archer, another Hunter Biden partner, is awaiting sentencing. Hunter Biden, however, escaped prosecution.

Among the details we have learned from Cooney’s emails is that Hunter Biden set up a 2011 meeting between members of the China Entrepreneurs Club, who were “joined at the hip with the Chinese communist government,” and senior White House officials, including his father. The Chinese communists bragged about their meeting with Joe Biden in social media posts back in China.

Schweizer said that the Cooney emails make it clear that Hunter was “the avenue to the administration.” In other words, the Bidens were using the vice president’s office to funnel money to Hunter’s business interests in much the same way the Clinton’s used the State Department to funnel money to the Clinton Foundation.

If you wanted influence at the State Department, you made a donation to the Clinton Foundation. If you wanted influence in the Obama White House, you did business with Hunter Biden.

Meanwhile, Democrats are desperately trying to quash any talk about Hunter Biden. Rep. Adam Schiff, chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, said over the weekend that information about Hunter Biden’s laptop “comes from the Kremlin.”

Here we go again. The left is back to alleging Russian collusion with the Trump campaign.

Speaking on Fox News yesterday, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe strongly rejected Schiff’s claim, saying:

Some of the people who complain the most about intelligence being politicized are the ones politicizing the intelligence… Unfortunately, it is Adam Schiff, the chairman of the House Intelligence Committee, who said the intelligence community believes the Hunter Biden laptop and emails on it are part of a Russian disinformation campaign.

Let me be clear: the intelligence community doesn’t believe that because there is no intelligence that supports that. And we have shared no intelligence with Chairman Schiff, or any other member of Congress… In this case, Adam Schiff saying that this is part of a Russian disinformation campaign and that the [intelligence community] has assessed that and believes that, is simply not true.

Good News

The economy continues to show strong signs of recovering from the pandemic, in spite of the left’s desire to keep you scared and locked in your home.

One million passengers were screened at the nation’s airports Sunday for the first time since March. And homebuilder sentiment is now at a record high, after breaking a record last month too.

Any reading above 50 is considered positive for economic growth. The September reading was 80 and the October reading is 85! Last year, the October reading was 71.
