I don't know what to tell you guys. We have to expand the Court. If we don't expand the Court, no liberal policy will be allowed to exist for the rest of our lives. That's why Republicans stole the court, that's why rich people pay for justices.

A news organization's job is not to MAKE news. It's to report news.
Journalism 101: never make yourself the story.
