Hillary Clinton hasn't won a single election since 2006.
Now she's telling Democrats exactly how to demolish the one branch of government they can't control.
She just told Democrats exactly where to swing the wrecking ball.
Democrats Court Packing Plan Calls for 13 Justices and No Constitutional Amendment
Hillary Clinton's opening move when the Democrats regain power would be four new seats on the Supreme Court, announced without apology on High Stakes, her new podcast with tech journalist Kara Swisher.
"I think instead, we should seriously look at expanding the court while the Democrats are in power," Clinton said.
"We now have 13 circuits. We should have 13 justices."
Those four new justices – nominated by a Democrat president, confirmed by a Democrat Senate – would land on a court with a 6-3 conservative majority and immediately start tearing down every constitutional ruling conservatives have spent a generation building.
The Constitution sets no limit on the number of justices – Congress does that by statute, which means a Democrat majority passes a bill after eliminating the filibuster, a Democrat president signs it, and there are no constitutional amendments required, no supermajorities to clear, no guardrails anywhere in the process.
Clinton rejected term limits in the same conversation, calling them "artificial."
Her position: no reform that distributes power fairly, only expansion that hands the Left total control of the one branch they cannot currently own.
Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Amy Coney Barrett have both sided against the Trump administration on major cases, and the Left still isn't satisfied.
They want four new justices who will be nothing but rubber stamps for the Democrat agenda.
Court Packing Has Support From Harris, Carville and Democrat Senate Candidates Nationwide
This isn't a radical idea pushed by the Squad.
James Carville – the man who put Bill Clinton in the White House – said on his podcast this spring that "on day one, they should make Puerto Rico, D.C. a state, and they should expand the Supreme Court to 13. F— it, eat our dust."
Then he told his candidates exactly how to handle it: "Don't run on it."
Kamala Harris endorsed 13 justices at the National Urban League in July.
Former Attorney General Eric Holder has publicly called on Democrats to make Supreme Court expansion a priority.
A Federalist investigation found that Democrat Senate candidates in more than a dozen states are already on board – including candidates running swing states that will determine which party controls the Senate next January.
Minnesota's Peggy Flanagan said at a debate: "I believe that we should add additional seats to the Supreme Court."
Maine's Troy Jackson said he's "not against putting more people on the court."
Michigan's Abdul El-Sayed was asked the question directly on camera. His answer: "Yes, but fairly."
Texas's James Talarico told Fox News he will "vote for overhaul to the Supreme Court" and is "open to a discussion about expanding the number of justices."
Georgia's Jon Ossoff – who campaigned against court packing in 2020 – now says he doesn't "rule out" supporting expansion.
The candidates who didn't say yes either declined to answer or went silent entirely.
Carville's instructions, followed precisely: support the plan privately, don't campaign on it publicly, and wait until the votes are there.
Clinton just blew that strategy up.
She said the quiet part out loud.
Democrats Already Tested Their Supreme Court Expansion Plan in Virginia
Democrats didn't theorize about court packing this year – they practiced it.
When the Virginia Supreme Court blocked their illegal redistricting scheme, Democrats immediately moved to pack the state court with new appointees.
That reflex – add seats whenever a court rules against you – isn't coming from the fringes. It's the party's operating system now.
The Senate Judiciary Committee in 1937 called FDR's court-packing plan "needless, futile, and utterly dangerous" – and FDR's own party killed it before it reached the floor.
Today's Democrat Party is more unified and more disciplined about hiding the agenda than FDR's ever was.
Win the trifecta – House, Senate, White House – and the wrecking ball swings soon after the sworn in.
Everything conservatives have won at the Supreme Court – Second Amendment protections, religious liberty, election integrity – gets relitigated before four justices who were never supposed to be there.
Clinton wasn't freelancing on her podcast. She was announcing the party's agenda – and she just told you exactly what they plan to do the moment they get the chance.
