Abigail Spanberger’s unlawful gerrymandering scheme was blocked by the Virginia Supreme Court. The Downballot presents an alarming strategy to render the court’s ruling moot:

Article VI, Section 9, of the Virginia Constitution gives the legislature unlimited authority to set the retirement age for judges.

The current retirement age is 73.

Make it 54 for Supreme Court justices—the age of the youngest justice, Stephen McCullough, who joined the majority opinion—and make it take effect immediately.

Then they can staff a new Supreme Court with Ketanji Brown Jackson types who will rubber-stamp whatever Democrats want.

The gloves are off — and not only in Virginia. As noted at the New York Post,

Nationwide, even moderate Dems are now talking about seizing their next available chance to pack the US Supreme Court, grant statehood to DC and Puerto Rico simply to gain them four safe Senate seats and abolish the Senate filibuster — and so lock in progressive power forever.

There will be a silver lining to leftist Democrats having seized control of Virginia if it alerts the rest of the country regarding the urgency of not allowing this to happen at the national level.
