So am I reading that right that the GOP wants to remove the checks and balances of the courts? Is this not a core tenant of our democracy?

They've been bemoaning the fact we have Democracy lately. They're playing up the Republic angle, and believe the People can't make the correct decisions for themselves.

and believe the People can't make the correct decisions for themselves.

Have you seen their supporters? They're right.

They have been doing the "well, actually" thing for quite a while on the democracy aspect, but they have turned it up lately, that's for sure.
