   In 1869 it was decided to have 9 Supreme Court justices because there were 9 Circuit Courts.

   Now there are 13 Circuit Courts. So what exactly are we waiting for?

     The elections.

     #KochNetwork will spend unlimited amounts to thwart a Democrat-controlled Senate to keep the "Court that Koch Bought"

     To get the Supreme Court expanded, the election needs to be won and decidedly.

     Sure hope the Democrats do better vetting this time to avoid a quisling like Sinema and Manchin.

     The Kochs' and Tim Mellon's unbridled financial support for Trump demonstrate that this election is shaping up to an historic class struggle between the billionaires and the people. The result will determine if the US retaines democracy or becomes a full fledged oligarchy similar to Russia.
