Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden says he “taught constitutional law for over 20 years.”
Biden sat down last Wednesday for an interview with Pittsburgh’s WTAE-TV. Anchor Shannon Perrine asked Biden whether he would support packing the Supreme Court if elected president, a question he continually refuses to answer, even during the presidential debate.
“You know, that’s exactly what they want me to talk about so we don’t talk about how they’re violating the Constitution now,” Biden said. “I’m not going to play [President] Trump’s game. Right now, my entire focus is seeing to it that the American people get a chance — the election has already started — to have their say on who the next Supreme Court justice is. And that’s what I’m focused on.”

Perrine asked Biden just how Republicans are “violating” the Constitution.
“The Constitution says that the American people — I taught constitutional law for over 20 years — says the American people get an opportunity to choose who they want on the Supreme Court by who they pick as their senator and their president,” Biden said.
The Constitution actually says: Article II, Section 2, the president, with the “advice and consent of the Senate,” shall pick Supreme Court justices. In fact, until the 17th Amendment was ratified in 1917, Americans didn’t even pick their own senators, state’s legislatures did that.
Since he claims to be a constitutional expert, he must have MISSPOKE knowingly.
Trump was asked about it in the debate:
“I will tell you very simply,” he responded. “We won the election. Elections have consequences. We have the Senate, we have the White House, and we have a phenomenal nominee respected by all. We won the election and therefore we have the right to choose her, and very few people knowingly would say otherwise. And by the way, the Democrats, they wouldn’t even think about not doing it. The only difference is they’d try and do it faster.”
“There’s no way they would give it up. They had Merrick Garland, but the problem is they didn’t have the election so they were stopped. And probably that would happen in reverse, also. Definitely would happen in reverse. So we won the election, and we have the right to do it.”
Biden wouldn’t answer it during the debate which in itself is an admission that he will pack the court. Here’s his exchange with Trump:
Biden: Whatever position I take on that, that’ll become the issue. The issue is the American people should speak. You should go out and vote. You’re voting now. Vote and let your Senators know strongly how you feel.
Trump: Are you going to pack the court?
Biden: Vote now.
Trump: Are you going to pack the court?
Biden: Make sure you, in fact, let people know, your Senators.
Trump: He doesn’t want to answer the question.
Biden: I’m not going to answer the question.
Trump: Why wouldn’t you answer that question? You want to put a lot of new Supreme Court Justices. Radical left.
Biden: Will you shut up, man?
He also didn’t teach the Constitution for 20 years.
Bill O’Reilly, who has been way too kind to these Democrats over the years, no longer holds back. He explains in the clip below what a Biden presidency and packing the court will mean to America.
Obviously, Biden will pack the court, which is the ONLY body of government that protects our rights. Packing it makes it into another legislative body — a Democratic one.
Biden will never stand up to the socialist/communist movement without the Court.
O’Reilly used the Court as an example but there is so much more they want to do — universal basic income, free healthcare, free college, free housing, and on and on.
After WWII, President Truman recognized a national security problem … there were several assorted agencies reporting to the president about urgent foreign issues and so, he created the CIA, one report.
In 1963, Truman put out an OpEd in which he expressed great regret for creating this spy agency. This was shortly after JFK was assassinated, the timing not lost to me.
In fact, Kennedy stated his intent, “to splinter the CIA in a thousand pieces and satter it to the winds.” This was just ONE MONTH before JFK was assassinated.
I’m sure the CIA does some important work however, it remains a “rogue” agency operating under complete secrecy and with little to NO oversight.
Devin Nunes is 100% right, EVERY federal agency, not should but MUST be completely “reimagined.”
Nov. 9, 2016, millions of Americans, in their glee, proclaimed the ease of which President Trump could reverse Obama’s most damaging fiats. At that time, I warned friends, “not so fast.” Barack Obama’s real legacies had NOTHING to do with the Iran Deal, Paris Accord or even the ACA. Obama’s REAL legacies would be a monumental challenge.
His REAL legacies were two fold: Flooding America with illegals and refugees who will NEVER assimilate AND, LOADING EVERY Federal agency, INCLUDING THE MILITARY, with Deep State operatives from middle management on up. Former DOJ attorney, J. Christian Adams, revealed the disgraceful dark agendas AG Holder brought to the Obama DOJ. Adams testified before congress, “we abetted wrongdoing and abandoned law abiding citizens.”
That was clearly evident with the Black Panther case when, 2008 elections, several members of this radical group appeared at polling places in Philadelphia. They were dressed in military style combat fatigues, “jack booted,” brandishing night sticks, hurling threatening, racial slurs at white voters. Their clear intent, intimidation to keep white people from voting. The case COULD NOT HAVE BEEN more cut and dry and, just as Mr. Adams was about to proceed with the case, he was ordered to drop it.
Holder, by FAR one of the most CORRUPT AGs America has EVER had, upon taking office, issued an internal memo at the DOJ instructing their attorneys, civil rights cases were to be brought ONLY for non white citizens. Essentially, the DOJ rejected civil rights for white America.
It’s not that the DS were not already in every federal agency … they were and have been for a long time. However, Obama made damned sure they were FULLY INFESTED and seated in every position of power.
So yes, we ABSOLUTELY MUST have a major house cleaning in EVERY federal agency. START with the CIA AND FBI. Start by removing EVERY Obama appointee … and any Clinton people still there. While they are at it, look VERY closely at every elitist remnant from Bush.
And the DOJ, Holy Hannah, I’m SURE there are many dozens of DS operatives among their lawyers.
Bottom line, there is not a SINGLE FEDERAL AGENCY which has NOT been made into a hierchy of DS infestation. Mr. President, FIRE ALL OF THEM.
Collectivism and Totalitarianism are the goals of Biden/Democratic Party.
Something that MAKES ME CRAZY…..
Joe Biden has been making these same such OUTRAGEOUS comments, COMPLETE figments of his imagination, for DECADES. Why I refer to him as, “The DC Village Idiot.” His DC peers has always explained it all away, excused his crazy comments by saying, “That’s just Joe being Joe.”
So Joe taught constitutional law for 20 years … THAT is HYSTERICAL. Amost as amusing as Joe boasting he the only one of his class to win a full scholarship, graducated at the head of his class with not 1 or 2 but THREE degrees…. NOT.
Joe had a PARTIAL scholarship, graduating at the BOTTOM of his class and BARELY MANAGED his one, SINGLE degree. I say “barely managed,” because Joe Biden has a LONG history of plagiarism. When he was discovered to be guilty of plagiarizing his college papers, the school was preparing to EXPELL him. Joe went on bended knee, BEGGING and PLEADING with them to not give him the boot, to give him another chance.
They did however apparently, Biden didn’t learn his lesson. In fact, of the other 3 times Joe tried to run for president and was soundly rejected by America … ONE of those rejections was BECAUSE Biden was, again, blatantly plagiarizing speeches from other politicians.
Bottom line, JOE BIDEN is an absolute FRAUD and always HAS Been. Excusing his unbelievable bull crap by, “it’s just Joe being Joe, was unacceptable as a senator. As PRESIDENT, it is COMPLETELY OUT OF THE QUESTION.
Seldom does a person remember a losing primary candidate, but Biden was so egregious in his campaign that many didn’t need to be reminded about those days. That’s how memorial the situation was.
Basement Biden has bullsh!tted his way through life forever. I have seen videos of his clear back to the 80’s. A carnival barker he is;)
Were those Constitution classes in the Congress.
