The Democratic push to expand the Supreme Court has led to opponents resurfacing Democrats’ “We Need Nine” campaign in support of then-Judge Merrick Garland’s 2016 nomination, which emphasized the need for nine justices on the high court.
Republicans on Thursday reminded Sen. Ed Markey, D-Mass., the lead Senate sponsor on a bill expanding the court from nine to 13 seats, of his 2016 position.
“This you?” asked Sen. Marsha Blackburn, R-Tenn., who posted a 2016 picture of Markey at a podium emblazoned with the hashtag “#WeNeedNine.”

Rep. Ken Buck, R-Colo., also took a shot, saying he “thought we only needed nine?”
