Holy Bat chip Crazy, Batman! Blinken refutes Dems' SCOTUS packing plan: it's how 'democracies come undone'

Secretary of State Antony Blinken was in Quito, Ecuador this week where he delivered a speech on "Making Democracy Deliver for the Americas." The speech turned out to be critical of the subject of packing the Supreme Court with like-minded additional justices who would support the ideology of the Democrat in power. This, of course, undermines the goals of President Biden and his party proponents at the same time it undermines democracy.

Blinken met with Ecuadorian President Guillermo Lasso [who may have been at the end of his rope] prior to his speech. “Consider a country," he said, "where a leader is elected in a free and fair election and then sets about chipping away slowly but surely, at the pillars of democracy – attacking the free press, undermining the independence of the courts, threatening political opponents. Now, imagine that leader then seeks to use the levers of democracy to pass anti-democratic reforms, eliminating term limits, packing courts, firing legislators.

“That’s the story of more than one democracy in our hemisphere. And it’s one of the ways that democracies can come undone,” Blinken added before heading off to Bogotá, Colombia. 

The speech comes after the death on September 18, 2020 of the notorious Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the far-left Associate Supreme Court Justice who was revered by the left until she opposed kneeling for the National Anthem and thought Colin Kaepernick was an anal sphincter dipped in hot sauce. The Democrats worried that she would be replaced with a non-socialist justice and low and behold, Amy Coney Barrett was confirmed in October last year.

So the Left kept on threatening to pack the court now that they had a shrub going along with their decisions.

“Nothing’s off the table. Everything is on the table,” said then-Senate Minority Leader Chuck "Nostrils" Schumer.

Biden was too cowardly to discuss the idea of packing the Supreme Court during the last part of his basement campaign, but that's only because Americans with more than two brain cells to rub together knew it was undemocratic and wrong to do.

The Founding Fathers of our country knew about the "tyranny of the majority." That's why they implemented check and balances in the government. Let's face it, if the population of a jungle consisted of 2 lions and one sheep, how do you think they'd vote on "what's for dinner?"

A commission, composed of 36 people was appointed by Biden and was to report back to him within 180 days to discuss and decide the fate of the SCOTUS. Last week they ultimately decided that packing the court is a bad idea.

“As a legal matter, we conclude that Congress has broad power to structure the Supreme Court by expanding (or contracting) the number of Justices,” a 28-page draft report from the committee stated. “The prudential question is more difficult, and Commissioners are divided on whether Court expansion would be wise.”

The committee on page 27 of the draft argued that former leftist President Franklin Roosevelt’s 1937 scheme to pack the court with activist jurists who would help his New Deal legislation worked to intimidate the court. FDR wanted to be a dictator, which is why he ran for 4 terms and died in the last one. Had he lived, he would have probably been considered a dictator in our history of the nation.

In 1983, Biden, who was more lucid and just as corrupt, slammed FDR over the un-American court-packing scheme, calling it a "boneheaded idea," and a "terrible mistake."

Blinken seems to agree with more lucid Biden, but he may regret to have disagreed with the shrub.

BREAKING: Assange arrested by British police after Ecuador withdrew his asylum

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange was arrested by British police Thursday moments after Ecuador announced it withdrew his asylum for “repeatedly violating international conventions and protocol.”

He is wanted in Sweden for sexual misconduct and in the United States for exposing highly confidential information through fellow scumbag, Chelsea Manning, a former U.S. Army member who provided Assange with the information, and who thinks he's a woman.

Ecuadoran Foreign Minister Jose Valencia told Teleamazonas this week that living indefinitely in the embassy is harmful for Assange’s "state of mind, his health,” but that the POS has a right to a fair trial and right to a defense.

London's Metropolitan Police said earlier this month that they would arrest Assange if he were freed. They did.

Assange faces possible extradition to the U.S. for publishing thousands of classified military and diplomatic cables through WikiLeaks.

Assange, 47, has been in the embassy since 2012 when British courts ordered him extradited to Sweden to face questioning in a sexual assault case. That matter has since been dropped, but Wikileaks is facing a federal grand jury investigation over its publication of American diplomatic and military secrets during the Iraq War. It was the largest classified information dump in U.S. history and put many lives at risk.

Assange, an Australian native, was arrested on a Westminster Magistrates’ Court warrant which was issued on June 29, 2012, for failing to surrender to court, Metropolitan Police said in a statement.

“The MPS had a duty to execute the warrant, on behalf of Westminster Magistrates' Court, and was invited into the embassy by the Ambassador, following the Ecuadorian government's withdrawal of asylum,” the statement said.

UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt thanked the Ecuadorean government for their cooperation with the Assange arrest.

"Julian Assange is no hero and no one is above the law. He has hidden from the truth for years," Hunt tweeted. "Thank you Ecuador and President @Lenin Moreno for your cooperation with @foreignoffice to ensure Assange faces justice."

“This man is a son, a father, a brother. [So was Stalin.] He has won dozens of journalism awards. [So has CNN.] He's been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize every year since 2010 [because the Nobel Peace Prize committee is so suck-worthy they gave Yassar Arafat, Al Gore and Barack Obama the award, and in the latter case, after only being in office a few months, having accomplished nothing.] Powerful actors, including CIA, are engaged in a sophisticated effort to dehumanise, delegitimize and imprison him,” WikiLeaks tweeted.

Assange is no hero. Chelsea Manning is no hero. The left says they are heroes because the left has a hatred for the country and Western Civilization in general.

This is a developing story.

Leading from Behind Has its Consequences, Barack

It's beginning to sound like Snowden has more information than originally thought. He's still off the radar, but it's believed he's in Moscow right now. There may be tons of documents in his possession that, if he releases, it will clearly damage national security. Doesn't it worry you that someone like Edward Snowden, a 29 year old high school drop out, military drop out, and Woody Allen-esque bespeckled nerd working for a private contractor, can have the clearance to get his hands on such sensitive information? Doesn't it worry you that he spent time in China, a country that isn't user-friendly to us and would like to rape us of our intellectual property?
