I agree. The separation of powers is a myth. And so is this stupid argument that you need to amend the Constitution to set the limits on the Supreme Court.

There is no Constitutional life term for a Justice. And there is no need to amend the Constitution. Congress can simply set a age limit.

“The separation of powers is a myth”

It is the foundation of our republic and was observed until FDR. We are fast headed for tyranny because we the people have let judges make law, allowed Congress to assign lawmaking to unelected bureaucrats who make, execute and adjudicate “law” via Presidential diktats.
