False. The Supreme Court is our most credible government institution. This could never happen, not even with devolution. It would create too large a rift and destroy any trust in the system.
Most credible, but least powerful in the eyes of the founders. Power was given to the branches partially based on how directly accountable they were to the people. More frequent elections=more frequent accountability.
So, Legislative -> Executive -> Judicial by order of power.
I don't trust the Supreme Court. I bet at least two, maybe three will go down for corruption along the way. Many decisions over the past 20 years involving those justices will have to be revisited, especially near even split decisions. That is separate from Congress, which is 90% bought and paid for.
There's no set time for process. There's traditional but that's not set in stone + they could say no to nominee.
"Once the Judiciary Committee completes its investigation of the nominee, he or she testifies in hearings before the committee. On average, for Supreme Court nominees who have receive hearings from 1975 to the present, the nominee’s first hearing occurred 41 days after his or her nomination was formally submitted to the Senate by the President."
I was just wondering the other day why we hadn't seen any liberal justice announce retirement under Biden. Now I'm wondering if this is part of the plan as you know they wouldn't retire unless Trump was out. So could this be planned. Maybe Sinema and/or Manchin switch parties?
This'll be a good test to see if White Hats are actually in control.
Merrick Garland was last seen foaming at the mouth, wondering what took Justice Breyer so long.
More like Justice Bayer
This will be doomer food before you know it if the DS have some sort of trick up their sleeves.
Merrick Garland has just entered the chat:
I'm shocked this is NOT a sticky....
STICKY REQUEST PLEASE......
Does not matter. Fake President. Fake Congress. It can all be revered with a wave of the wand post devolution.

Fricking GOP had better block brain dead Biteme from appointing a replacement.
So the thing is, under which legal path would they be able to do this?
