According to the Congressional Research Service, while Congress has expanded the federal courts based on caseload in harmony with the Constitution, “some contend that expanding the Court with the intent to shape the Court’s composition and obtain more favorable case outcomes [for the president] may raise constitutional questions.”
Amnesty
The Biden administration released its “wish-list amnesty and cheap labor bill” January 29, while indicating “it would cooperate to push through a series of smaller amnesty bills,” Breitbart’s Neil Munro reported.
“If we can reach an agreement soon, very soon, we will have the base bill reintroduced and then that will be our starting point to build support as well as consider any additions, too,” Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) said to Newsweek.
“If Congress is able to put together a package with a path to citizenship for essential workers, Dreamers, temporary protected status holders, and agricultural workers ‘that’s something the White House would give a good look at,'” an undisclosed source said. . . .
Reparations
The House Judiciary Committee approved a bill Wednesday that would designate a commission to study reparations for black Americans over slavery.
“The bill would create a 15-member ‘Commission to Study and Develop Reparation Proposals for African Americans,’ which would recommend ‘appropriate remedies.'” Breitbart’s Joel B Pollak reported.
The text of the bill argues that slavery resulted in “systemic” discrimination against black Americans… but it is unclear who would pay reparations and to whom. . . .
Federalizing Elections
“If this bill passes, it puts in all these terrible provisions,” Hans von Spakovsky said to Breitbart News Daily. “It’s a federal micromanagement of the election process, and everything that folks on the left want to reduce the integrity [and] the security of the election process is in there.” . . .
D.C. Statehood
The House Oversight Committee advanced Bill H.R. 51 Wednesday by a vote of 25-19 to create D.C. statehood, perhaps receiving a full House vote next week.
Before the bill was passed in committee, Rep. Any Biggs (R-AZ) said the ultimate contention seems to hinge “on the 23rd Amendment, which guarantees the federal Capitol at least three electors in presidential elections.”
The representative’s perspective is supported by legal scholars, who have denied D.C. statehood’s feasibility without a Constitutional amendment to the 23rd Amendment. The Office of Legal Counsel in 2007 stated it was unconstitutional, the Justice Department under former President Reagan and former President Carter said the transformation was unconstitutional, and so did Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia, when he sat on the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals. . . .
Electoral College
The Electoral College seems to be under attack as well. Thursday, a resolution was introduced to abolish the weighting system that maintains equality among the United States’ vast and differing populations when voting in the presidential election.
Many radical Democrats have long attempted to remove one of the most important institutions in the country. On the first day Democrats assumed control of the House of Representatives in January 2019, Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) proposed killing the electoral college.
“In two presidential elections since 2000, including the most recent one in which Hillary Clinton won 2.8 million more votes than her opponent, the winner of the popular vote did not win the election because of the distorting effect of the outdated Electoral College,” Cohen wrote. . . .
“You won’t be surprised to hear that I passionately believe it’s time to abolish the Electoral College,” the failed presidential candidate wrote in an op-ed in the Atlantic in 2018, which she reiterated two years later, “I believe we should abolish the Electoral College and select our president by the winner of the popular vote, same as every other office. But while it still exists, I was proud to cast my vote in New York for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,” she tweeted.

Amen!, I agree Rochelle. Be of good courage! Our eyes are on You Lord, You are our defender. We repent and seek your mercy for the 🇺🇸 USA.
Dear Heavenly Father, our nation is in the grip of evil as never before. We are suffering mental, physical, and spiritual attacks from those who have stolen power and their dark shadowy puppet masters. Lord I continue to pray for our nation and hope these darkening days lead more people to wake up to the evils and injustices that have been and continue to be done, and repent. Lord I believe we have yet to see the worst of what is coming, and I fear that things are now so bad that only some great calamity can set this nation free. Still, I know all things are possible for You, and I suspect you have great surprises for us. I cannot wait to see what You will do. In Jesus precious name I pray, Amen.
These people are so deceived and evil that only our Holy,Soverign, God, knows how to get through to them! Pray! Prayers of the righteous avail much! Their agenda is so one-sided and evil, you have to wonder, why have these people have been allowed to stay in office, year after year. There is NOTHING they support that is remotely good! Please, call, write, text, etc. your Congressmen and women, whether they’re Democrat or Republican! Not to speak, is to speak! We cannot be silent and passive EVER again! Think about your children and grandchildren.
Yes, there are some, who are simply believing a lie, they’re deceived and are not changing…..but there are some who will listen, they want to be re-elected! That’s their only agenda, to get re-elected!
I agree Pauline! Thank You for your call for us to get involved and to pray and seek God’s help for our country and families.Yes we pray for those who are deceived, that God would open their eyes and they would come to know the truth and know Jesus’ love and forgiveness. I thank God for IFA and God Bless You Pauline and all those who who are praying. 💕🙏
