I couldn't agree more. McConnell demonstrated he has no interest in constitutional norms when he abrogated the constitutional responsibility to "Advise and Consent" for decades, most especially with the Garland and Barrett behaviors. And the result is crap like this:
D.C. Circuit overturns FDA ban on shock device for disabled students (Reuters). This is a result that is purely ideological, not constitutional, and is
absurd on its face, yet it is becoming the norm for Republican appointees.
The "block and flood" strategy abuses any notion of compliance with framer's intent and is much worse than any effort of "packing". Thomas and Alito have no business being on
any court, much less the Supreme Court, yet that's what happens when the Constitution is abused for purely partisan advantage.
