This is the same annual Congressional softball game between the two political sides BTW that was targeted by that crazy Bernie Sanders activist who shot Steve Scalise and several others. How long before this happens again?

If somebody on the right side tried that it would be deemed terrorism.

Political violence always comes from the left from what I have seen lately so it might not be as hard to figure it out.

Do not care about their political affiliations, they are fighting the good fight. Non violent civil disobedience means that sometimes you take the ride. |

Always? That is just not factual. Oklahoma City? Olympic Park? Abortion Clinic bombings and shootings? Pittsburgh , Poway (CA) Synogogue mass shootings? Halle, Germany , January 6th, etc.etc. Neither "side" is free of radicals and violence. |

Shouldn’t these protests be in front of each of the States Capitols though? Besides showmanship vying for media attention and boondoggles what’s the point of members of the U.S. Congress protesting in front of The Supreme Court of the United States?

I can understand people wanting to protest. But members of the U.S. Congress protesting in front of the U.S. Supreme Court? Shouldn’t we be investigating this as a coupe attempt or an act of open revolt against civil authority or a constituted government? if anything ‘we the people’ should be protesting at the steps of BOTH state and federal legislators. Not the SCOTUS.
“I want to tell you, Gorsuch. I want to tell you, Kavanaugh. You have released the whirlwind, and you will pay the price. You won’t know what hit you if you go forward with these awful decisions,” - Chuck Schumer “We will not surrender our rights without a fight—a fight to victory!” - L. Lightfoot “Seriously, shout out to whoever the hero was within the Supreme Court who said ‘f-ck it! Let’s burn this place down,'” - Ian Millhiser “I know that there’s an outrage right now, I guess, about protests that have been peaceful to date, and we certainly do continue to encourage that, outside judges’ homes, and that’s the president’s position.” - Jen Psaki (To be clear, it is a criminal offense to picket or parade near a residence of a federal judge for the purpose of influencing the outcome of a judicial proceeding. It is not a defense that the behavior is nonviolent.)

Naw I think the current federal standard for revolting is that the guards have to open the doors and start shoeing them in.

Democrats attempting to intimidate the courts even POTUS calling for protests on the property of the judges is one way to do that I guess. I don’t understand, it is our elected State representatives job, NOT the SCOTUS not even the POTUS or AOC. Yet here we are, another dog and pony show with members of the United States Congress willfully distracting everyone from those people whose job it is to lawfully legislate these changes. Sure whatever the cause fight the good fight, nobody ever said it would be easy and there are no guarantees. But jesushkeerist at least have the mind to direct those efforts towards the right people, it’s why they’re there.

This is "probably" (lol) the reason why Trump installed his yes-men and women, and look how well they act. Civil war next?

That’s because you apparently don’t quite understand how justices are appointed to the SCOTUS either. A president can only nominate a person. The final say lies with the Senate and guess what? No matter if they were Republican or Democrat they all voted yea and confirmed the nominations. Yet we have certain congressional democrats playing games at the steps of the Supreme Court for a few minutes of divisive airtime. Wouldn’t it be something if they could act like grown-ups for a change and suggest to people let their voice be heard at steps of the State legislators instead of acting like a bunch of little vindictive hypocrites “fomenting hate” in an attempt to control the court through intimidation telling people to break the law and trespass the private properties of the justices?
