Will Democrats Succeed in Packing the Supreme Court? Experts Say No.
The progressives are eager to signal to their voters that they back court packing even though such a measure is very unlikely to actually go anywhere.
After former President Donald Trump and Republicans filled three vacant seats of the Supreme Court with conservative justices during the former president’s White House term, Democrats were furious.
That prompted calls from the Democrats’ far-Left wing to “pack” the nation’s highest court with progressive and liberal justices, as Trump and the GOP tilted the bench’s ideology to have a 6-3 conservative majority after pushing Amy Coney Barrett’s appointment just days before the 2020 presidential election.

Biden Administration’s Explanation for Syria Air Strike Falls Apart
Feb. 27 , 2021 (EIRNS) The Biden Administration’s explanation of a “legal” air strike in “self-defense” in Syria on Feb. 25 against Iranian-backed Iraqi groups alleged to be responsible for rocket attacks on U.S. bases and the Green Zone in Baghdad began to fall apart almost as soon as it was delivered. The explanation of the air strike has been rejected officially by Russia, Iran and Syria, by international legal experts and even by progressive members of President Biden’s own party in the U.S. Congress. It has also caused embarrassment for the government in Baghdad despite the administration’s assertion that targets were hit in Syria precisely to avoid problems for the Iraqi government.
