Amend the judiciary act, add five seats to the court, break the filibuster to get it through the senate, and we get a Supreme Court that would have overturned Citizens United, saved Roe, overturned the ridiculous immunity rulings and expidited Trump's trials for insurrection and stealing classified documents. He'd be in jail now instead of the White House.
