5. Like 500 lawyers at the bottom of the sea, "It's a start."

In a fantasy world, Mr Kavanaugh and Mrs Barrett ought to be impeachable for outright lying at their confirmation hearings, but the two AOC has chosen have the most points of vulnerability.

Now, if the Democrats can only secure the landslide victory they deserve in November, we might could actually do something about it.

I do think Mr Biden ought to appoint a couple of new Justices. However, that is a non-trivial pursuit. The majority in the Senate being what it is, it only takes one or two dissenters who are nominal Democrats to nip that plan in the bud. Of which I'm sure Joe is more than aware.
