Obama AG Eric Holder Demands Term Limits for SCOTUS, Falsely Claims Terms Can Be Changed By Statute
But he’s so very wrong…
Democrats love changing the rules, or at least attempting to, when they don’t get their way. They’re like children throwing tantrums. Of course, the nation knows that liberal members of Congress still can’t believe Hillary Clinton lost to Donald Trump in 2016.
That’s what impeachment was all about. Dems were looking to get back at Trump in whatever way possible, no matter the amount of damage to their brand or the nation, as a whole.
Eric Holder served as attorney general for the first six years of Barack Obama’s presidency, leaving a litany of scandals in his wake. He is now calling for term limits for Supreme Court justices.

He also offered, for what appears to be the first time, his endorsement of a proposal to term-limit Supreme Court justices. He also advocated for allowing each president to appoint two justices each per term.
Holder’s tweet:
18 years is enough for an unelected official – Supreme Court justice – wielding such power. Each president gets two picks which will decrease the political pressure in confirmation. Can be done by statute. Ask each candidate their position – including Trump. Reform is necessary https://t.co/SKapGfgliB

Article III, Section I of the United States Constitution is something Holder should look in to. It will let him know that he is completely wrong about changing term limits via statute.

Reactions:
Translation: DNC and IC doesn't like the well-crafted framework and constraints of the rule of law and checks and balances.

The fact that you waited until now to say this…. well… it says a lot about what you really want… you didnt care before…

Of course, our founders predicted this. The reason for the "lifetime appointments" is that it allows for there to be one branch of government that remains the constant while the other two branches change.

Funny, you didn't push this plan when it looked like Dems would hold the White House for a long time.
I wonder why….. 🤔https://t.co/3y5bDmBuGi

Holder recommending a drastic change to SCOTUS tenures:
You can bet your life that if we had a Democratic President in office/about to win re-election, that the disingenuous #Holder wouldn’t be recommending any such change.

The Constitution ignored yet again, sighs. I am democrat yet am sadden by this logic.

Once a cheat, always a cheat. Change the rules to go your way. Glad you’re out and over.

The system is designed to span generations, and dampen the temporal emotional call to action which is the calling card of radicals.
Let's leave it alone.

Sorry–Congress cannot limit SCOTUS terms under the Constitution. See Northern Pipeline Construction Company v. Marathon Pipe Line Company, 458 U.S. 50, 57-62 (1982) (bankruptcy judges cannot exercise Article III powers w/o lifetime tenure & no change in salary).

That’s a no from me. In order to get a seat on the Supreme Court, a person has had to play a single elimination tournament through adulthood without losing. Once they get in that seat, the nation benefits from long tenures from accomplished individuals mastering their final job.

Apple Backs Down, Will Allow Parler Back on App Store
The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
Free speech is a fickle thing, and precious too. If we’re not careful, it can be stripped away but those who hide behind the claim that a “private” company can limit your personal freedoms. Twitter, Facebook, and other social media platforms are almost always the culprits here, bending the algorithmic reach of those with whom they disagree. Enter Parler: A free speech app where only the bare legal minimum of content would be moderated. The platform became incredibly popular with an astonishing swiftness, but soon faced trouble from companies who had previously aligned themselves with Facebook and Twitter’s more controlling stance. Apple, who had previously booted Parler from its App Store, has now relented to the Constitution. Apple has approved Parler’s return to the iOS app store following improvements the social media company made to better detect and moderate hate speech and incitement, according to a letter the iPhone maker sent to Congress on Monday. The decision clears the way for Parler, an app popular with conservatives including some members of the far right, to be downloaded once again on Apple devices. The letter — addressed to Sen. Mike Lee and Rep. Ken Buck and obtained by CNN — explained that since the app was removed from Apple’s platform in January for violations of its policies, Parler “has proposed updates to its app and the app’s content moderation practices.” On April 14, Apple’s app review team told Parler that its proposed changes were sufficient, the letter continued. Now, all Parler needs to do is to flip the switch. The news is seen as a major boost for the First Amendment.
For many North Carolinians, neighborhood living brings with it the peace of mind that the most invasive animals you might have to deal with are squirrels who are trying to rest in your attic, or raccoons hoping to fatten up from your trash can. The Tar Heel state has some bears, sure, but they’re not often the pestering or dangerous type like you might see in the Pacific Northwest or parts of California. But one man this week got up close and personal with a seriously frightening creature this week, after it lunged at his wife from underneath their car. A disturbing video captures the moment a rabid bobcat attacks a North Carolina woman—and the moment her husband grabs it off her and throws it through the air. Kristi and Happy Wade of Burgaw were walking to their SUV to take their cat to the vet the morning of April 9 when the growling animal ran across the street and attacked, WIS-TVreports. After throwing it several feet, Happy Wade eventually shot it after it ran into the couple’s garage and then continued to charge, ABC 11 reports. A neighbor who had been jogging by at the time stopped to help and called 911. Video of the incident is simply unbelievable. https://twitter.com/nojumper/status/1383145940807163904?s=20 The bobcat was injured by Wade and later euthanized by local law enforcement. An autopsy revealed that the animal was indeed rabid, and the family has been undergoing treatment for their numerous bite wounds.
