Elections have consequences: You get partisan, extremist judges who take away your freedoms.
How did the Supreme Court get so politicized? Mitch McConnell blocked President Obama's nominee to the Supreme Court, Merrick Garland for over a year. Neil Gorsuch later got that Supreme Court Seat.
McConnell then reversed himself and rushed to place Amy Coney Barrett on the court with just weeks before the next election. Both Gorsuch and Barrett voted to overturn Roe v Wade. End Affirmative action. Allow discrimination against LGBTQ. Deny students debt relief.
Which Republican Senators voted to pack the Supreme Court with right-wing extremist judges? Which of them are up for election in 2024?
