With the confirmation of Justice Amy Coney Barrett days before the 2020 presidential election, conservatives solidified a 6-3 majority on the Supreme Court - and the chance to shape American life and policy for a generation. Behind it all was a powerful Republican from Kentucky: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, for whom Barrett’s confirmation was a crowning achievement in a hard-fought, decades-long effort to transform the nation’s highest court. “Supreme Revenge: Battle for the Court” tells the inside story of that effort, and how it was sparked in part by a 30-year-old grievance. With McConnell elected to another six year term and President-elect Joe Biden preparing to take office in January, the film offers both a gripping political narrative and critical context on the state of America’s judiciary at the dawning of the Biden administration.
This is an update of the 2019 FRONTLINE documentary, “Supreme Revenge”, which may be viewed here: • Supreme Revenge (full ...

I am so sad, so disheartened and I seriously believe that if my fellow citizens connected the dots between your gamesmanship (I'm in Washington, I'm in the Senate, Congress, whatever) they would, too, resent how robbed we have been by those who play their games rather than representing us.

Trump of the Republic of the United States of America in accordance with the original Constitution of the United States of 1787 restored on May 1, 2020. Kind regards to all who wish to discover "The Truth Will Set Us Free ". We must first disconnect from the Matrix. Like turning off the television and stop watching lying news, stop believing their narratives, stop believing their fake statistics. Then research and scrutinize until you come to your own conclusions. Don't accept anything as an imposition. Do your research voluntarily and take time to do this. We are in the Third World War under land, sea, land, sea and air. It is not a conventional war, nor a nuclear one. It is a silent war behind the scenes. There are no ideals or types of elements like Democrats and Republicans. What exists are nationalist patriots who defend our duty and inalienable right to be free and independent sovereigns against the tyranny of globalization with its misnamed New World Order, its shadow government, the deep state, its establishment. Let's stop believing in ideals like capitalism, communism, socialism, fascism, monarchies, etc. All of this has us divided. When the only thing that really exists is Corporatocracy disguised as a Democracy label. No political party, no religion, no sectarianism is going to save us. That is why we must unite to be saved. Let's begin to see our true potential within each of us and then we will realize that we ourselves are united before our Universal Creator. It is time for NESARA GESARA, QFS, World Monetary Reset., HR 5404. It is time for a new era of peace Prosperity, harmony, love, respect, communication between all individuals, peoples, governments and nations. In Balance with our Mother Earth, Atabey, Pachamama, Gaia or whatever you want to call her. Where we go One, we all go. White Hat, White Dragon, Chinese Elder, Galactic Alliance and Earth Alliance.

Keep in mind, the Supreme Court is the highest court in the country, but there are dozen of regional courts and 100s of state courts that the President and the Senate appoint judges to, totalling about 850. But, about a 100 of these were supposed to be appointed by Obama in his last year, yet they weren't because Senator McConnell held the seats up in case Trump won in 2016. And within the past 4 years, Trump thanks to McConnell have appointed over 200 of all of them, many of which will still be on their benches after Trump and McConnell die.

That has happened for decades. Democrats did it to both Bushes, specifically holding up (without hearings) Appellate court (which are actually more important in terms of impacting policy) nominations. John Roberts' nomination was held up for over a year during the end of HW's term. My point is not to defend this behavior, but instead to clarify that it is in no ways new. Both sides have increasingly played a game of tit-for-tat on this stuff, to the detriment of the courts and American people (in my humble opinion).

@Jane Doe well for your information the Senate was Republican. if Dems wants to get their nominee through they should win the Senate then unlike what happened to Justice ACB where The President and Senate are both Republicans. And to your claim of unconstitutional things about Sen. Mitch, if that is so then why no one from the Dems led by your Sen. Chuck filed a case against Mitch of culpable violation of the constitution? aren't you aware of that or your just making assumptions based on what you are being fed rather than studying the case yourself. and by the way, you call Moscow Mitch as if the Dems doesn't embrace the Socialist-Communist views. you should study the facts first before you fire, so that you don't sound like an empty can, just pure noise with no substance at all.

If one retires or passes away during this soon to be Biden/harris administration, he will make the process extremely difficult for the liberals to vote in a liberal judge into the Supreme Court. Look back to the last nine months X-President Obama presidency,his nomination of a male Liberal Judge. Senator Mitch Mcconnell Stonewalled the whole process. No hearings,no vote,no nomination! Nothing exceeds like excess! True Judicial Political Power is what Mitch Mcconnell is all about. It is all he craves,desires needs n wants of his mission, is to fill the Supreme Court with Conservative Accociate Judges. Old School Conservativism from the days of Ronald Reagan n his nomination of Judge Robert Bork. N one of the founding lawyers/ judges from the "Federalist Society". Bless all always!

On one hand, I could empathize with McConnell making it his life's work to retaliate against the smear campaigns against Thomas and Kavanaugh (Bork sunk himself but it didn't have to be that way). OTOH, For McConnell to be so blatantly hypocritical as to deny Garland even a _hearing_ for godsake, and then turning around 4 years later and sending Barrett through the express line, it undermined his legitimate complaint about the low-life tactics Dems engaged in to keep judges off the bench they didn't like (You notice those tactics were never employed against a _liberal_ judge). McConnell didn't care one whit about politicizing the Supreme Court, and the end result is that it's given Dems the chance to sully the legitimacy of the Court in general -- supposedly the _least_ political of the three branches. The gloves came off when Bork was borked, and now the knives are out; and the left is now going to make it _their_ life's work to dilute the Court's legitimacy even further by going after sitting justices personally and getting Congress to assert itself against and subordinate a separate branch of government, which threatens the separation of powers. This needs to stop. _Enough!_ Of the three branches the Judiciary is the one I have the most reverence for, precisely because it's apolitical and will defend the Constitution where the other two branches will think nothing of skirting or ignoring it.

@@diegotobaski9801 The biggest problem in this country today is we have given the two parties too much power. They use that power to rig the election every year so one of the two parties win. Here's how it works first their partners the news media uses an old war tactic divide and conquer. They use disinformation, propaganda, and fear mongering, to enforce a us versus them mentality to further their agenda of making Americans argue amongst themselves, distracting them from seeing the real enemies of democracy. They then limit people's choices by only focusing on the two parties and ignoring all independent party's, they don't give them airtime or let them participate in the debates or even acknowledge their existence. This put people in the mindset that they must choose one of the two chosen parties. They enforce the idea that it red vs blue, you must pick a side and the brainwashed people eat what they are selling and regurgitate their talking points. "The definition of insanity is doing the samething but expecting different results." - Albert Einstein The insanity that people expect change from politicians who profit from the status quo is beyond belief. They don't even represent the people anymore they represent the corporations and powerful people that fund their campaigns. When 99% of politicians vote along party lines it indicates that they are looking after their party's interest not the people's. If we stand any chance of changing things in this country we have to start supporting more 3rd parties to offset party politics and bring in more diversity of ideas and restore democracy back to the nation. Both parties have taken control over the country when they appoint Judges that lean Left or Right it gives them even more control over the people and allows them to break the law and get away with it.

@@19holly19 🤣😂 In reality.. It's no laughing matter.. This demented grandpa talking about the glory days when he had hair on his legs was voted for by the majority of this country.. speaks volumes to the power of media.. If you've taken care of elderly people with Parkinson / alzh. this would look familiar. It's weird to be asking on here.. But just like the internet flipped the table with radio and TV.. This needs to be done again.. Podcasts and RU-vid.. Any out of the box ideas? We need one.. The establishment has caught up to us Joe Rogan.. Buried in Spotify.. What's 100mil to bury the biggest podcast Reddit... Done RU-vid... Done FB... Done Google searches... Done Alternatives won't help, we need a medium change. A hail mary.

Victory for who? Corporations never have to pay taxes while you insane anti vax idiots kill off as many elderly and poor people as possible? When the judgement day comes for you, I hope you have a good excuse for the deaths of 600k people. You’re not pro life ..you’re pro killing off the people jesus told you to be kind too.

In this sordid story there ARE no good guys. Pure, smashmouth politics with the one branch of government that should be the most apolitical. Our system has one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel.

i disagree with how they call judges conservative/liberal. just because the way they view the constitution often aligns more with one party than the other does not indicate their personal political views. it adds to people seeing the court as politicized when in reality it really isnt. however the appointment process for judges, mainly supreme court justices, has definetly become politicized that doesnt make the court and its rulings politicized.

It's a vicious cycle of untoward behavior leadimg to darker darkness when we decide to achieve our goals by violating acceptable norms or laws that protects the dignity of other fellow human beings. Disrespect begets disrespect. But because of pride, which come before the fall, no one wants to accept the possibility of being perceived as a looser trying to restablish the respect of the norms and laws that can bring a sense of peace within our society. May God have mercy and help us.

Mitch is the man! The left likes to call him "the turtle". Obviously, they mean that in a derogatory way in reference to his physical appearance. But they seem to forget that turtles like a very long time and outlast many other animals and turtles are tough and able to endure! Get em turtle! I predict "the Turtle" will still be the majority leader when Biden and Nancy Pelosi are long gone!

Chess Piece, no. but Trump knew he needed conserative votes so when the Majority Leader said this would ensure conservative support it wasn't a a hard sell.
