YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Imagine the Supreme Court with 81 justices instead of nine. This bold theory explores how packing the bench with dozens of new members could effectively neutralize the institution's immense power overnight. By turning the highest court into an unmanageable bureaucratic maze where decisions are made by random selection rather than ideological bloc, the current structure of judicial authority would fundamentally collapse. It is a radical look at how simple legislative majorities might just be the solution to reining in an unchecked branch of government.
