I assure you, I've made a point of never fucking Republicans my entire life!

(Seriously, though, while I can understand some righteously-indignant retribution, we should only stick to what's possible. "Removing the Republican judges every last one" can only be accomplished through impeachment and conviction -- which, as with the impeachment of a President, requires a 2/3 vote of the Senate for each of them. And, even if we run the table in Senate races come November, we still won't have close to 67 Senate seats in the next Congress. And "make some rules" to "purge them all out of government" would require not just "rules," but laws that pass both chambers of Congress, get signed by the President, and pass Constitutional muster. Which would probably be impossible with any Supreme Court, and certainly is with the current one. As much as some of us might want to set up the guillotine in Lafayette Park, we probably better concentrate on what we can achieve with the power we'll hopefully have come 1/20/21.)
