DC: The most liberal court in America could be heading for a split.
A House panel held a hearing on possibly splitting the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals Thursday morning. The 9th Circuit is recently serving as the primary antithesis to President Donald Trump.
Three 9th Circuit judges, including Chief Judge Sidney Thomas, Judge Alex Kozinski, and Judge Carlos Bea gave testimony before House Committee on the Judiciary Subcommittee on Courts, Intellectual Property and the Internet. All three judges, like most of their 9th Circuit colleagues, support the current configuration and oppose splitting the court.
The subcommittee’s chairman, Republican Rep. Darrell Issa, said the court has become too unwieldy to operate efficiently.

How about charging them with not upholding the law?
Split the 9th circuit and new judges for both new circuits.
How about split all of them. Right down the middle.
How about the immigration laws that have been in effect for at least a hundred years and for good cause. How is this yahoo allowed to subvert that within a few days? This is not just over reach – this is treason.
These “judges” are using their own hubris to allow this country to be invaded. They have no standing to override established law, and letting them get away with it is just as criminal as they are.
split ’em? … Hell! impeach them!
Just abolish the 9th and start over. You can never let liberals have both power and authority over the lives of others, they will screw it up EVERY time.
horse-toothed jackass
If they split, do the female judges get to keep the house?
Circuit Courts are a hold over from the mid to late 1800’s. It’s day has come.
Cut off one head and two more make liberal crap law from the bench. I say we take off and nuke ’em from orbit…
And what the hell is wrong with their heads? There’s more ugly right there than in a planned parenthood dumpster.
You can hear the squealing coming from the Judges, the ACLU and various liberal/progs out there now. I’m not sure how they’d split but what’s more important is whether the Judges can be replaced.
quicker to split the court than impeach or replace. Its probably for the best.
Oh Lordy, ‘Congress Condiders’. Do nothing GOP congress ‘considers’? Hell, they might have to WORK.
“The most liberal court in America …”
Only if the word “liberal” means “National Socialist” or “Inter-National Socialist.”
Shut em down. The ONLY court demanded by the Constitution is the Supremes, and they have overstepped their bounds – all the other courts are creatures of Congress.
izlamo delenda est …
Split at least 3 ways, move the 9th out of faggotville, and pay the liberal judicial activists what they’re worth; Minimum wage. For people who cannot even read what the law says, they’re over paid.
