HBO host John Oliver has re-ups his offer to pay Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas millions of dollars to resign from the high court. Oliver's offer comes as the left raises concerns about what the upcoming November election could mean for the future of the Supreme Court.

Former Obama adviser Dan Pfeiffer has warned that the Supreme Court could be left with a "MAGA majority" should former President Trump win re-election. Pfeiffer predicts that Trump would appoint two more Supreme Court justices if he wins a second term, as Justice Clarence Thomas and Justice Samuel Alito are nearing retirement.

Pfeiffer notes that if Trump wins re-election, he would "most certainly" be able to appoint two Supreme Court justices since Thomas will be 82 and Alito will be 78 by the end of Trump's second term.

"If he gets two appointments, that means he will have appointed five Supreme Court Justices, all of whom will be around or below the age of 60 when he leaves office," Pfeiffer said. "That is a MAGA court majority that will rule for decades."

Pfeiffer adds that even if Democrats manage to win subsequent presidential elections, Trump's "fingerprint" will be "all over" the Supreme Court.

Former President Obama praised President Biden's judicial impact, recognizing his confirmation of women and minorities. Obama noted that judges have the power to "roll back progress or keep us moving forward; to protect our basic liberties or take them away."

The debate over the future of the Supreme Court is likely to intensify as the November election approaches. The outcome of the election could have a significant impact on the composition and direction of the court for decades to come.

In 2021, Bill Gates warned that the Supreme Court was becoming "increasingly partisan" and that "it's not good for the country." He urged Americans to be aware of the importance of the court and to make their voices heard in the upcoming election.

The Supreme Court is the highest court in the United States and has the power to make final decisions on a wide range of issues, including abortion, gun rights, and voting rights. The court is composed of nine justices, who are appointed by the president and confirmed by the Senate.

Justice Clarence Thomas has been a controversial figure throughout his career. He is a conservative justice who has been accused of sexual harassment and misconduct. In recent years, there have been calls for his resignation from the court.

Oliver's offer to pay Thomas millions of dollars to resign is unlikely to be accepted. However, it highlights the growing concern among liberals about the future of the Supreme Court.
