There's Nothing Sacred About the Number 'Nine'

Brett Kavanaugh may be confirmed this week and by Monday sit on the U.S. Supreme Court.

If that happens and when the next Congress takes office in January, there will be an immediate investigation by the U.S. House into the FBI's so-called investigation this week into Kavanaugh as Democrats will re-capture the gavel and chair all the House committees and therefore have subpoena power.

It's clear the White House limited the scope of the investigation and while the FBI interview notes may be confidential, any directives the FBI was given by the White House are not.

Democrats might not be able to work up to 67 votes in the Senate for impeachment in the next 6 years.

And if not, President Joe Biden should pack the court. Only 50%+1 in each chamber of Congress would be needed to pass legislation expanding the Supreme Court to 11.

There's nothing sacred about the number "nine."

You're absolutely correct. You and @AlienZipper are low hanging fruit. I'm so ashamed.

It may not be sacred, but it is a special number. Every multiple of 9 adds up to 9 or a multiple of it. 18, 27, 36, 45, 54, 63, 72, 81, 90, 99, etc. There are no exceptions to that mathematical rule. It is the only number that does that.

@beckyromero Absolutely right, he seems to crop up in general day to day discussions here at the Hitler Youth Club...

There is no maybe about it Brett Kavanaugh will be confirmed but he won't be sitting on Monday. The FBI supplemental investigation is complete, the cloture vote will be today or Friday then next week it will go to the floor for a vote.

Another investigation, only if there is a democratic house and it won't go anywhere, everyone is pinned down on I don't remember so they won't be able to prove anyone is lying except maybe Ford, her ex boyfriend has already contradicted her sworn testimony.

But a democratic congress is not a sure thing, the Kavanaugh ambush attack orchestrated for the 11th hour has galvanized republican voters and polls show a greater turnout for republicans this mid term. So the liberal whining and lying may have worked against them.

No way Democrats are going to get a 2/3 super majority for an impeachment vote.

There's nothing sacred about the number 9 but should tables turn it is not likely that will change. The Circuit Judges Act returned the number of justices to nine just after the civil war, it is not likely to change, they got away from fighting over the number for a reason.

@Johnson212 I[quote]mpeachment without a senate conviction is meaningless, just ask Bill Clinton.[/quote]

Which is why I am patient to get to 67 over a 4-6 year period.

@beckyromero Pipe dream

If a real estate developer / TV personality can become president, nothing in politics is a "pipe dream."

When one uses “It’s clear” it’s followed not by something factual but what the writer wants readers to believe is fact.

Oh you means the ones that struggle to make up a false truth?@NankerPhelge
NankerPhelge · 61-69, M
@jackjjackson You know what I mean. The ones who block us when we shove the naked, brutal truth in their dualistic faces the way I love to hammer it home. I have no mercy on trolls.

You’re doing God’s work sir. @NankerPhelge
I don't like going down this slope. It seems awfully slippery.

I find it interesting that you can be so cavalier about anarchy
jackjjackson · 61-69, M
Guess that worked then. @beckyromero
