WASHINGTON — Mike Davis, Founder and President of the Article III Project, issued the following statement after the Biden-Harris administration released a plan to overhaul the Supreme Court.
"Our mentally incompetent President is making unconstitutional demands for more senior (conservative) Supreme Court justices to step aside, ignoring our Constitution's lifetime tenure that ensures judicial independence.
"Our corrupt President is making unconstitutional demands for an illegal 'ethics' regime to use bogus pretexts, like patriotic flag-flying by a conservative justice's wife, to selectively disqualify Supreme Court justices in his way.
"And our President--who politicized and weaponized his Justice Department to destroy his political opponent--now wants to destroy the Supreme Court who stopped him. And his Vice President aided and abetted him every step of the way.
"Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are beholden to the radical leftwing elements of their party. Their alleged 'reforms' are just one step toward the ultimate goal of packing the Supreme Court to guarantee decisions favorable to Democrats.
"The Biden-Harris proposed radical assault on judicial independence is the gravest threat imaginable to our Republic. Biden and Harris are now plotting to destroy another branch of government simply because it is in their way.
"Biden is a broken man, winding down his failed presidency. Harris is now the de facto President, after her bloodless coup against Biden. Both are the 'dictator' and 'danger to democracy' they project onto their political opponents. Biden should thank his lucky stars the Supreme Court that he is now attempting to destroy will rescue him from the Trump 47 Justice Department. Both Biden and Harris are a disgrace, and January 20 cannot come soon enough," said Davis.
The Article III Project (A3P) was founded by veteran GOP operative and attorney Mike Davis, who, after helping win the Senate confirmation battles of Neil Gorsuch and Brett Kavanaugh, developed the reputation as a “take-no-prisoners conservative eager to challenge the left with hardball tactics,” as reported in The New York Times.
A3P defends constitutionalist judges, punches back on radical assaults on judicial independence (like court-packing) and opposes judicial and other nominees who are outside of the mainstream. Davis previously served as Chief Counsel for Nominations to Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) on the United States Senate Committee on the Judiciary and led the Senate confirmation of Justice Brett Kavanaugh and a record number of circuit court judges.
