Several high-profile Senate Democrats warned the Supreme Court in pointed terms this week that it could face a fundamental restructuring if justices do not take steps to "heal" the court in the near future.
The ominous and unusual warning was delivered as part of a brief filed Monday in a case related to a New York City gun law. Sens. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., Mazie Hirono, D-Hawaii, Richard Durbin, D-Ill., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., referenced rulings by the court's conservative majority in claiming it is suffering from some sort of affliction which must be remedied.
"The Supreme Court is not well. And the people know it," the brief said. "Perhaps the Court can heal itself before the public demands it be 'restructured in order to reduce the influence of politics.'"

Once again democrats want to do something they legally can't do. No respect for the founding premises of pu government.
Give me strength. Who in the hell do they think they are. If anyone needs healing and restructuring it's the damn democrats in Congress. Their big mouths are getting in the way of their brains again.
Democrats always want to change the rules so it benefits them. The hell with what the people want.
As long as it was liberal, they were happy. Time to deport Democrats.
Liars cheaters thieves and murders
Once again conservatism is attacked as "something is wrong". The double standard the Democrats have employed is finally coming to a head. Please continue,it will only lead to a republican victory.
They obviously mis spoke , they meant heel , not heal !
More and more I believe that it is time for Trump to declare martial law and restructure the country. Force all liberals into certain states, wall them in, then restore the US without all of the liberal nonsense.
They are threatening to displace the Constitution. It is time to displace them instead. Do this before it is done to us. Otherwise, make your reservation in a Progressive re-education camp.
RINO Republicans better get their heads out of their ASS. Otherwise WE ALL LOOSE!!!!
Democrats have bullying / mental health problem, They do not deserve any pension or benefits from tax payers.
Either turn to socialism or face consequences?
Might this blunt threat be interpreted as attempted obstruction of justice? Akin to jury tampering, since the justices are both judge & jury in the cases they hear? A motion of censure by the Senate seems in order.
The supreme court is in the process of restructuring now. ginsberg's moving on will help
A "restructuring" like when they put that pillow over Antonin Scalia's face.
