There was an option on the table for them to lower the mandatory retirement age of Supreme Court justices, but they will not do it.

They want to "work within the existing legal system": https://bsky.app/profile/therealbrent.bsky.social/post/3mllik3ltck2i

The democrats commitment to the bit is something to behold. This action is staggeringly awful. It's not just worse than useless it's destructive I figure it appeals to maybe ~1% of the voters that might vote dem. If this incredibly dumb hail mary fails - it's fucking hilarious. But if it succeeds it's even funnier. The dems have given GOP SCOTUS a precedent to meddle in state elections!
