    So the only way this works out is Biden 66ing the extremist judges and the remaining vote that it was an official act.

    Yep, that’s what I said: the court literally just gave Biden the power to do that.

          The devil is in the details. If he just goes all willy nilly and not at the right people he wastes his opportunity. You can’t assassinate Trump as official because they wouldn’t deem it so. It matters because it means the only choice he is left with is to official order the extremists on the SC.
