(WASHINGTON) The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed that the House of Representatives needs more GOP members in order to pass the party’s agenda, so it will pack the lower chamber with more Republicans.
The high court turned away a Democratic request to deny a petition from the opposition party requesting the justices allow them to add as many Republicans as it takes to pass their bills and impeach Joe Biden.
“The court did not make this decision lightly,” the 6-3 ruling said. “But after careful consideration, we have concluded that Democrats are not a serious party and therefore cannot be put into a position actually to govern.
“Had we not taken this action, it’s possible that enough American voters would have been brainwashed into voting for the Democratic Party to control the chamber at some point in the future, thanks to a dishonest propaganda media. And that would be bad for the country and its founding Constitution,” the ruling said.
Naturally, Democrats disagreed with the decision.
“It’s not fair, man, it’s not fair,” House Minority Leader — now House Permanent Minority Leader — Hakeem Jeffries wailed. “When I agreed to become the Democratic leader, it was with the understanding that I could become Speaker someday and violate the rights of Republicans at my leisure. This ruling robs me of that opportunity.”
