Vice President Mike Pence is accusing Joe Biden of planning to add members to the U.S. Supreme Court if the Democrats "somehow win this election."

Pence said at Wednesday's vice presidential debate: "I tell you people across this country, if you cherish your Supreme Court, if you cherish the separation of powers, you need to reject the Biden-Harris ticket come November." Kamala Harris counters that the Trump administration has stacked federal courts nationwide with white conservatives.

"This is what they've been doing. You want to talk about packing the court. Let's have that discussion," she says. "Let's go on and talk about the issue of racial justice."
