They really do keep finding ways to alienate more and more Democrats from the party AND making sure independents never take them seriously every again. .

Does that really happen though? Since the MSM is their propaganda arm, half the country thinks the dems are honorable.

Entirely unsurprising. Democrats think only their partisan clowns like Boasberg should be able to 'enforce the law.'

Ex Post Facto? I guess if it would be a constitutional amendment to the state constitution that might not apply but if it were just a law, then it is vulnerable.

It is a dumb and obviously spiteful idea.

And btw, this is probably the same brain trust who tried to do this in the first place, but it's not going to happen until 2028.

The Democrats' call to lower retirement age to 53 to remove all 7 Virginia Supreme Court justices, including 4 members of their own party, to reinstate their gerrymandered congressional map that would feature 10 Democrats and 1 Republican. The Democrats always scream "threat to democracy" whenever something doesn't go their way and try to change the US or state constitution to regain power and control.

Keep in mind this is only because 1 of the 4 Democrat-appointed justices went with the 3 GOP-legislature-appointed justices on this case.

Virginia to this day actually still manages to have a solid constitution, which the people agreed as recently as 2020 to make it as difficult as possible for their legislators to change. It limits passage of constitutional amendments to those passed in two consecutive general sessions, not special sessions.

I believe Virginians are largely disgusted by the work of their state legislators this year, despite the Dem propaganda otherwise. The nice thing is, I anticipate the legislators will wind up reacting as most don't want to lose in the next election cycle.

This is the extremes democrats will go for power.


Have you ever heard democrats talk about adding DC and PR as states for eternal control of the senate?

Have you heard them openly talk about expanding and packing the supreme court so they can legislate from the bench?

Have you heard them talk about a "path to amnesty" for the ~20 million illegal aliens in our country right before they intentionally opened the border to let in +20 million more in four short years?

How about ending the electoral college?

Have you seen them fight tooth and nail against common sense basic anti-fraud controls like an ID that proves the person voting is the person who is registered to vote?

Have you seen them calling any and all anti-socialist political opposition literally Hitler, fascists, extremists, domestic terrorists, racists, nazis, etc. to incite their mentally ill base to riot against or attempt to assassinate judges or politicians they don't like?

Have you seen them use a scamdemic to subvert election law to turn an election into a mass mailed harvesting campaign?

Have you seen their leaders openly call for "reeducation" and "deprogramming" for everyone who didn't vote for their socialist party?

Have you seen them use their control over social media tech platform monopolies to censor wrongthink and inconvenient bad news about themselves as well as ban political opposition off the face of the internet and continue pushing for censorship czars and "disinformation" boards globally?

Have you seen them use their control over mainstream media and the security state to propagate phony Russian claims, phony disinformation letters, propagate and enflame division and national riots over a felon ODing?

The socialists will not stop with any of their Marxist tactics. They hate this country and everything about it. Virginia's state assembly lowering the retirement age to force out all of the state supreme court justices is just a microcosm of the national socialist party.

What bothers me about these ideas is that almost half the people in this country fully support all this.

Almost half the voters in this country see no problem with this behavior as long as their chosen party obtains power and complete control of the country.

Link to where people actually use the word "honorable"?

Voting one way doesn't mean you think everyone on that side is honorable. Hell, there's conservatives on here who know and have said Trump isn't (fill in the blank with a positive trait) but still voted for him. Same with "the other side".
BUT, it's those in and around the middle that get turned off. Hence why Biden won a term he should never had because of how that slice of the country got turned off. And that same slice is looking at what these idiots on the left are doing and getting turned off and won't be there for them on election day.

Believe me, no one pretends to think the hardcore voters will be so upset at what someone(s) on their side does, but the ones whose votes actually decide elections (the center people) do get upset and don't vote lock step.

If the right pushes this stuff in the right areas it'll hurt the left on election day, like it has in the past.

Unless it happens this week I do not think they will have time. Plus if they did this I bet the US SC (if taken there) would shoot it down

And remember all this cheating is for only 1 cycle 2026. because they will definitely have new map in place by 2028. Pretty crazy they would be willing to go this far to get pushed through for one election cycle

Well do will they have to have a state election to get it passed by 2028? Because Virginians might vote the new map down if another election is held.

Spamburgler probably loses her next election because of all this. Unless she cheats, which is a real possibility

half the population is brainwashed to think doing all of those things are the righteous and just things to do "to protect our democracy" without a single thought given to what "democracy" really means, whether "our democracy" is really at any risk whatsoever, or how anti-democratic the ploys they are supporting are.

I have found that, whenever a democrat politician or anyone on MSM says "our democracy", replace it with "our Marxist regime", and all of a sudden everything they say and do makes a lot more sense. Too many useful idiots will never figure it out though. It's how we will ultimately vote ourselves into Venezuela 2.0.

Wouldn't this be federally illegal anyway? 53 is not a reasonable mandatory retirement age, especially for judges, and instituting a mandatory retirement for only one office in an obvious political hack job doesn't pass EEO muster.

Democrats have a fervent belief in voter dilution ('cracking' and packing) of red voters.

It's just racist to call that out.

No it was something proposed in an opinion article yesterday by some wackadoodle lawyer out of some other state and it got picked up and repeated by a bunch of other stupid people, Jeffries among them. It's not a serious proposal.


That's not how this works. Just like you, they'll say "Retirement at 54 is not serious" then they'll turn around and try to pass 56 years as the 'reasonable, serious compromise'.

This idea was propagated in an opinion piece written by one person, out of state. It's not something under consideration.
