Democratic strategist James Carville stepped in front of Kayleigh McEnany’s Saturday in America and issued a blunt warning that even his party’s own leadership is steering into dangerous waters. Carville discussed the Democratic Party’s shift further left, the renewed push to expand the Supreme Court, and the growing chorus calling to end the filibuster — and he even walked back a prior 2028 prediction while doing it.
Make no mistake: when a seasoned Democrat like Carville publicly frets about the party’s direction, conservatives should take it as confirmation, not consolation. He’s essentially admitting what every sensible American voter already sees — a party more interested in ideological purity tests and power grabs than governing for everyday families.
Carville’s unease about court expansion and scrapping the filibuster should be a wake-up call about the radical instincts at the heart of today’s Democratic leadership. Expanding the Supreme Court or weaponizing Senate rules isn’t reform — it’s raw, naked partisan power that would destroy the institutional trust that holds our republic together.
Conservatives aren’t being alarmists when we say these moves will backfire; they will. Working-class Americans, veterans, and small business owners don’t want a government that changes the rules when the other side loses; they want stability, the rule of law, and judges who interpret the Constitution rather than rewrite it to fit a political fad.
If Democrats persist down this path they won’t just lose elections — they’ll lose the moral high ground they pretend to hold. Voters remember who respects traditions, who defends the Constitution, and who fights for secure borders, affordable energy, and the dignity of work. Those are the truths conservative candidates need to hammer home every day.
Now is the time for patriots to get organized, turn out, and make clear that America belongs to the people, not to transient majorities or political opportunists. We must defend our institutions and insist on reform that restores balance and accountability rather than grabbing power for power’s sake.
James Carville’s warning should be the last thing Democrats ignore before it’s too late — and a reminder to conservatives that common sense, patriotism, and respect for the Constitution remain the most powerful answer to the reckless ambitions of the left.
