Democratic politicians wail about the rising tide of fascism just to turn around and demand a fascist takeover of the judicial branch because it won’t rule how they want.Democrats are particularly upset with two cases. The first was the Supreme Court striking down race-based congressional districts, which Democrats used to segregate black voters into Democratic districts in solid red states such as Alabama or Mississippi. The other was the Virginia Supreme Court striking down Virginia’s ballot proposition to support a Democratic power grab in the gerrymandering process.
The result is hysteria among the Democratic Party. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said the following: “We are going to have to explore massive judicial reform, state by state, and at the federal level, and everything should be on the table as far as I’m concerned.”

What does that mean? In Virginia, Democrats are floating the idea of lowering the mandatory retirement age for its state Supreme Court from 73 to 54, in order to remove the four justices who struck down their obscene gerrymandering operation that violated the state’s constitution. Democrats could then replace those four justices with four stooges who would vote however the party demanded, and then raise the retirement age back up to keep them on the court for decades.
