I’ll bet the split on the decision against term limits would be 7-2 with Sotomayor and that new justice voting in favor of term limits.

That would be like Congress blocking the passage a proposed amendment to repeal the 17th amendment.

With the current focus on returning to constitutional originalism Biden’s attempts to redesign our form of government are going to hit a wall.
Originalism is the legal theory that bases constitutional, judicial, and statutory interpretation of text on the original understanding at the time of its adoption

Sotomayor is allegedly in poor health so her term may end in the near future. As for the “ new justice” perhaps there should be a minimum IQ limit.

I definitely think tightening up some ethics wouldn’t hurt. They are paid well for 9 months of work. I’d say they should be under the same 10 dollar gift max as the rest of the federal government. No trips, no staying at homes, no paintings, ect. Definitely no foreign travel or gifts.
