If it already wasn't, The Supreme Court Is Now On The Ballot.

Pretty sure sexual assault and harassment goes beyond "crappy" behavior.
Just sayin. :)
So do you believe that being accused of sexual assault and/or harassment is enough? How do you determine whether it was true or not? Biden and Clinton were accused of sexual assault, should that of disqualified them from office?
 
It’s hard to know the precise combination of developments that changed President Biden’s mind about Supreme Court reforms and prompted him to place them more centrally in the framework of the 2024 election.

Was it the ethics scandals of Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito and the Supreme Court’s own ineptitude in dealing with them? Was it the series of controversial decisions across a whole host of issues and areas of civic life in which the court wrested power away from the executive and legislative branches and placed it firmly in the judicial branch? Was it the six-justice conservative majority aggressively uprooting the court’s own precedents in pursuit of its own preferred legal and policy outcomes? Was it the fact that he’s trailing in the polls with his own re-election more at risk that at any previous point in his presidency?

All of the above are in play, of course. A tipping point was reached, and it’s unlikely any one development was the difference-maker.


trump's Court's popularity is in the shitter. Deservedly so. Perhaps this is a move by Joe to capitalize on voter sentiment. No matter the motive, reform is overdue. There must be accountability for crass ethics violations and for the lack of recusals when there are demonstrable conflicts of interest (hello Clarence). I can understand the Founders wanting to somewhat insulate the Court in order to maintain its independence. But they did not contemplate such a corrupt Court nor such polarized times.


So, if the court is a majority democrat and they are enacting the democrat agenda…THEN they would be a fair court…right?

Also, thomas hasn’t done anything wrong, there is no impropriety because none of those people have cases in front of the court.

Failing to report lavish gifts he is required to report isn't doing anything wrong?

Stop being a big cry baby. There's nothing wrong with the court the way it is. Stop looking for shortcuts and stop trying to control everything. This is what Harry Reid got you.. This is what you wanted... so go ahead... make more mistakes and have them shoved up your ass again.
