A leaked video appears to show Republican officials at a meeting held by an anti-abortion group pushing for women to be prosecuted for having abortions.
So what would the point of Biden trying be exactly? Because it sounds purely performative and the Senate already wastes way too much time on performative bullshit.
He could literally do nothing about the Dobbs decision. It was entirely out of his hands. The executive branch does not control the judicial branch. That’s the whole point of the separation of powers.
When did he try to expand the court? Details please.

Okay. Fair enough. He tried.
And he failed.

he could introduce a constitutional amendment. he could pack the court. he could do something.
A constitutional amendment takes a supermajority of congress and 2/3rds of the states to ratify it. That is literally impossible for Biden to achieve.
We already talked about how he would fail at packing the courts.
I think you don’t really have a good understanding of how the U.S. government works.

You’re right. He didn’t try to do something purely performative that was almost certain to fail in a big waste of time and taxpayer money.
Because that would have been pretty fucking stupid.
