Kamala Harris Dials Up Democrats’ Radical Assault on Rules of American Democracy

There they go again.

I’ve written often about the mounting radicalism of progressive plans to bulldoze central props of our constitutional order, such as packing the Supreme Court, abolishing the Electoral College and the Senate filibuster, and adding new states (including, unconstitutionally, D.C.) in order to tilt the national government in their direction. There is a grave risk that their desperation on the eve of the 2030 Census could lead them down this road if they have the White House and both houses of Congress in 2029. They are already talking themselves into it, as well as state-level radicalism such as attempting to force the entire Virginia Supreme Court into retirement over one ruling they don’t like — the timing of which they asked for.
