Dems Pack SCOTUS - Ketanji Brown Jackson Sworn In - Justice Breyer Still On The Bench

Dems are pulling a fast one on dimwit Republicans again! They're packing the court.

Biden formally signed the commission papers appointing Jackson to the Supreme Court earlier this month – though Justice Stephen Breyer still remains on the bench.

"President Biden seems to think that Stephen Breyer and Ketanji Brown Jackson are both duly appointed associate justices occupying one seat simultaneously. Obviously that is false. And the Biden Department of Justice’s slapdash memorandum raises more questions than it answers," McConnell told Fox News.

McConnell was referring to a memo released earlier this month from the Justice Department’s Office of Legal Counsel that states: "If the Senate votes to confirm Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson as an associate justice of the Supreme Court, the president may complete her appointments to the Supreme Court by signing her commission before Justice Breyer’s resignation takes effect."

"Whether this is just incompetence or some hair-brained scheme, the same president who set up a court-packing commission is continuing to erode norms and our institutions," McConnell said.

McConnell added that "the president, the attorney general and the chief justice should publicly clarify that the court has eight associate justices and one chief justice, notwithstanding the administration’s claims."
