    If they won’t expand the court, they could do what the House and Senate did to Johnson and that’s shrink the court.

    Unfortunately, the only fair way to do it would also remove Brown-Jackson.

    “Five, five is a good number. Remove the four most recently added.”

    You’d get rid of the Trump court, but also Jackson, and it would still be 3-2 right wing court. Thomas, Alito, Roberts, Kagan, Sotomayor.

      They won’t do that either.

      Why would you remove the most recent judges and not the most elderly judges?
