Biden to push for Supreme Court ethics reform, term limits and amendment to overturn immunity ruling, sources say

All good ideas... that can't go anywhere as long as Republicans control the House and demand 60 votes to do anything in the Senate.

And that is how you stay the nominee.

This is what drives me crazy about Biden; 2 years ago, the Supreme Court overturns Roe, Biden says, "this must not be the final word," but does nothing to reign in the court. 1 year ago, the Supreme Court ends affirmative action, Biden says, "this is not a normal court," but rejects calls expand the court. Now, the Supreme Court has effectively given the President immunity from all crimes, he finally comes up with a set of decent court reforms, 4 months before the election, when his political position is at the weakest it's been for his entire presidency. He's such a blind institutionalist that he allowed an American institution to wage war on America's government and its people for almost his entire term before he got serious about doing anything about it.

He better hop to it, hes only got 7 more months.

He should have been pushing this shit 2 years ago when roe was overturned. The absolute fucking stupidity of Biden and the Democratic party is astounding. They'd rather dangle carrots in your face than give you the carrot and say "there's more to come if you keep us in power".

This is about as credible as horny milfs near me.

I'm sure he'll get this done before November, then it's on to world peace!

Joe Biden is the best presidential candidate for this election.

This is the best summary I could come up with:

President Joe Biden is seriously considering publicly endorsing major reforms at the Supreme Court, a move that would make him the first sitting president in generations to back seismic changes to the way the nation’s highest court operates, according to two sources familiar with the deliberations.

Chief among the changes Biden is planning to publicly back are term limits for the nine justices, who currently serve lifetime appointments.

Additionally, Biden is considering whether he should push for a constitutional amendment that would effectively reverse the historic ruling from the court earlier this month that gave presidents immunity for some actions they take while in office.

But as the Supreme Court came under intense scrutiny in 2023 following a series of blockbuster investigative pieces that turned a spotlight on the ethical alleged lapses of several of the justices, Democrats in Congress pushed for meaningful reforms at the court, though the issue never fully gained steam.

The nine justices eventually released an ethics code in November that did little to assuage concerns from the court’s critics.

The reforms backed by Biden would need congressional approval and the constitutional amendment would require ratification by 38 states in a process that seems nearly impossible to succeed.
