Several Democrat Senators issued a stunning warning to the Supreme Court this week — “heal” or face drastic restructuring.

The Supreme Court currently has a conservative majority of 5-4 so the Democrats are doing everything they can to change the court to shift the power in their favor.

The demand came in an amicus brief filed in court on Monday by Senators Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Richard Blumenthal (D-CT), Mazie Hirono (D-HI), Richard Durbin (D-Il), and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) regarding New York’s current gun laws.

The brief blasted the Supreme Court as partisan toward conservative causes related to “voting rights, partisan gerrymandering, dark money, union power” and civil rights issues.

The Democrats’ lust for power is similar to what we saw with Stalin and Mao and they will do anything to shift power in their favor by “court-packing” by increasing the number of justices on the Supreme Court.

“The Supreme Court is not well. And the people know it,” the brief said. “Perhaps the Court can heal itself before the public demands it be ‘restructured in order to reduce the influence of politics.’”

The Democrats referenced a recent Quinnipiac University poll in which a slight majority, 51% favored a restructuring of the Supreme Court and 55% believed the court was “motivated by politics.”

 

The brief was filed in the case of New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. City of New York, which dealt with legal limitations on where gun owners could transport their licensed, locked, and unloaded firearms, Fox News reported.

The Democrats want the Supreme Court to stay out of this case which was brought by a NRA-backed group.

If this is how aggressive the Democrats are when they are not in a position of power, imagine what they will do if they ever take back the White House and have control over the House and Senate.
