If he’s wearing Depends, he doesn’t need a bathroom break.

Yeah. The new, energetic, Joe. I just hope he doesn’t stroke out before the election. Afterward he can rot, as much as I care, the wretched bastard
Article III section 1 says. “The judges, both of the supreme and inferior courts, shall hold their offices during good behavior…”. They are lifetime appointments. “Terms or Tenure” are irrelevant. “They shall hold their office during good behavior”. They can only be removed by impeachment. Nothing else can affect their office. Congress is powerless to enact any legislation that will affect the holding of their office.
Why is the left in America so obsessed with death? Abortion, Euthanasia, gang violence, assignations, etc. I have my answer. but I want an effin lefty to answer it— HONESTLY, answer the question
Term limits would need an amendment, but the number of judges can be changed by Congress. Judges can be added by an act of Congress. But shrinking the court is a lot more difficult - death, removal or resignation followed by an act establishing the number of justices at the lower number.
However, that would deprive the president of an opportunity to name a justice to fill the court vacancy. If Congress opposed the president, they might try that just to spite him. But they can also not give a candidate a Senate hearing (think Merrick Garland) and get the same result until a new Congress comes in.
Democrats have zero acceptance of the separate of powers enshrined by our Founders in the Constitution. Just one of many reasons why I despise them.
What fresh faggotry is this?
I smell something.....it’s kinda stinky.....familiar odor.
Oh, I remember now.....their might odongo! That’s what I smell. spit.
Hahhaahhhhaaa! Term limits says the guy who has been in DC since 1972, and ethics standards from the clown whose family has grifted money from China, Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan!
This guy is so full of crap it’s no wonder his eyes are no longer blue!
He’s clearly not happy with SCOTUS, perhaps a better tack would be to stop ignoring their rulings and badmouthing them incessantly!
They are a co-equal branch last time I checked.
Pope JPII spoke earnestly about ending the 'culture of death', and while it was meant for the West, he was pointing at US.
They would be. They were confirmed to lifetime appointments.
Also the Constitution calls for lifetime appointments.
Democrats will destroy anything they don’t like. Be aware.
This isn’t “Biden’s work,” but those of his handlers—behind the scenes, unelected, unaccountable, and un-American. This is a last-ditch effort to re-make one of our institutions that is actually working, SCOTUS. Biden doesn’t care, nor will he be able to explain whatever the proposal is.
