Radical leftist author Fran Lebowitz is calling on lame*-duck President Joe Biden to abuse his executive powers to “dissolve” the United States Supreme Court.
Lebowitz railed against the high court during an interview Saturday.
She blasted the SCOTUS as “Trump’s harem.” while blasting
Lebowitz made the call during a discussion with “Real Time” host Bill Maher regarding the court’s presidential immunity ruling in the case involving President Donald Trump.
“It’s so disgraceful, this court, that it shouldn’t even be allowed to be called the Supreme Court,” Lebowitz said.
“It isn’t. It’s an insult to Motown to call it the Supreme Court.
“It’s not even a court…basically, it’s a harem. It’s Trump’s harem.
“When they passed that law, that ruling, where they said ‘you’re not the president, you’re the king,’ which is what that ruling is, you can do whatever you want, you can never be held responsible, I thought, ‘You know, Biden is still the president. No one seems to notice,’” she said.
“But I think Biden should dissolve the Supreme Court.”
Maher pushed back, saying:
“Dissolve the Supreme Court? Come on.”
“‘I’m the president, I’m the king now, like you said, and go home,’” Lebowitz replied.
“Okay. Good to see you’re centrist,” Maher retorted sarcastically before changing the topic.
WATCH:
The Supreme Court issued a pivotal ruling in the presidential immunity case against President Trump in July.
The high court declared that a former president has substantial immunity from prosecution for official acts committed while in office, but not for unofficial acts.
The ruling means that the trial judge in the lower court case against the 45th POTUS will now have to hold hearings on whether the charges against Trump were based on official acts by the then-president or unofficial ones.
Trump celebrated the ruling as “brilliantly written and wise” at the time, calling it a “big win for our Constitution and for democracy.”
President Biden labeled it a “dangerous precedent” while calling for new “reforms” to the Supreme Court.
Those so-called “reforms” include term limits, a new code of conduct, and the draft of a new constitutional amendment that limits presidential immunity.
Lebowitz, an author and speaker best known for her appearances on “The Late Show with David Letterman,” has a history of making extreme statements against Trump.
In 2019, she suggested on “Real Time” that impeachment wasn’t enough to discipline Trump.
“Certainly, he deserves to be impeached,” Lebowitz said.
“I mean, impeachment is just the beginning of what he deserves.
“Not even scratching the surface of what he deserves.
“Whenever I think about this and what he really deserves, I think, ‘We should turn him over to the Saudis, you know, his buddies. The same Saudis who got rid of that reporter, you know. Maybe they can do the same for him.’”
Her remark was in reference to the 2018 murder of Washington Post writer Jamal Khashoggi.
Khashoggi is believed to have been tortured and dismembered with a bone saw, purportedly under the orders of the Saudi government.
She later apologized for the comments after facing widespread backlash.
“I saw your face when I said it,” Lebowitz told Maher.
“I didn’t even realize that I said it.
“I had twelve cups of coffee. I regret saying it.”
“You know, everyone’s too, too, too, too … ” Maher told the panel.
“I mean, it’s a live show,” Maher said at the time.
“You really don’t want to see the president dismembered by the Saudis.
“I don’t like Donald Trump either. … but no matter who the president is, we don’t want physical harm.”
