Expansion is the only feasible solution short of Amending the constitution.

We must demand it, by refusing to support anti-expansion/pro-filibuster candidates (Janet Mills got the message).

You are correct, there will be tremendous resistance by the big donors and oligarchs to changing the status quo of gridlocked politics-as-usual.

Because of the intense , widespread suffering caused by this administration, we have a unique opportunity, a brief window between the elections of 2026 and 2028, to circumvent this entrenched power structure and elect courageous Dems who will do the right thing, kill the filibuster and expand the court.
