Harris and Dems Playing for Keeps

“I think that we need an expanded playbook in a way that we invite all ideas that we have basically look that we say look this is a moment where there are no bad ideas. A no bad idea brainstorm is what I'd like to call it. And in that no bad ideas brainstorm, we talk about what we need to do and think about doing around the Electoral College. We talk about the idea of Supreme Court reform, which includes expanding the Supreme Court… Let's talk about statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.”

That was former Vice President Kamala Harris, potential Democratic presidential candidate for 2028 — if so, she’d be the Democratic frontrunner say the latest average of polls compiled by RealClearPolling.com — basically saying the quiet part out loud on the Win With Black Women podcast on May 13 with host LaTosha Brown.

That is, Democrats have every intention of packing the Supreme Court, the House with five more seats (about one for D.C. and four for Puerto Rico), the Senate with four more seats (two for each new state) and bring the Supreme Court to as many as 13 or 21 justices.
