When Joe wins in November, can you name one of the first things you would like to see him do?

I feel the MOST important thing i'd like to see him start is (if we control congress) ADD judges to the Supreme Court.

Let's have a group appointment of six of the most liberal, progressive, far to the left, out there judges that can be found, all under 40 years of age. I don't care if they have to be taken off a county superior court bench.

Then:
Codify Roe.
Lock up Trump for his traitorous act against our democracy.
Set the IRS on the Heritage Foundation.

I’ll take any of these in any order, as long as job #1 is expanding the court.

And Garland takes his retirement bc with humble thanks expressed all around, while Biden appoints a savvy firebrand as AG.

Wishful thinking scenario: Amy Klobuchar replaces Garland as AG and Al Franken replaces Klobuchar in the Senate.

I know, I know, but I can dream, can’t I?
