Democrats introduce bill to enact term limits for Supreme Court justices

When do WE THE PEOPLE get to enact term limits on Congress...That is the biggest fail of our Founding Fathers...We should not have career politicians, this fuckery going on today is what happens....SCOTUS is the only position that should be a life appointment...The rest, term limits...All Of Them!

***Edited becuase I can't seem to spell today :-(

A bill doesn't override the Constitution, but they do whatever they want.

A group of House Democrats introduced a bill on Tuesday to enact term limits for Supreme Court justices, arguing that the move will “restore legitimacy and independence to the nation’s highest court.”

The legislation, titled the Supreme Court Tenure Establishment and Retirement Modernization Act, would authorize the president to nominate Supreme Court justices every two years — in the first and third years after a presidential election. The justices who have been on the court the longest will be moved to senior status first.

If confirmed by the Senate, those individuals would serve a maximum 18 years on the bench. After their tenures are complete, the Supreme Court justices would retire from active service and assume senior status.

Once again, we shall have to remind the lawless Marxist Democrats, that Article III of the United States Constitution expressly grants life tenure to Supreme Court Justices.

If they do not like that they can try passing an amendment to the Constitution itself. Otherwise, Congress is a CO-EQUAL branch of our government, with no authority to impose Constitutional changes on the others.

I presume this is just a show for their low-info voters.

Well, they should start with congress first.

But now they want term limits. Wonder why?

Because Clarence Thomas is too based and the dims are losing all their Supreme Court cases.

He already shit canned Roe vs Wade and is about to shit can the NFA with the Matt Hoover case. The ATF is about to become the WAT (Weed Alcohol Tobacco) agency.

Plus they will most likely lose more major cases down the road.

Well, they should start with congress first.

That's going nowhere.


The supreme court will strike it down.

Why not have a nine year term, with a new appointee each year for nine years? It would be far less political becasue it would be hard to say who will have control or a majority by the time a case makes it to the docket.

I want the names of the fucking retards that are proposing this pile of unconstitutional shit.

Oops it's further down in the article.

The usual bunch of commie fucks:

Rep. Hank Johnson (D-Ga.) introduced the bill along with Reps. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y.), David Cicilline (D-R.I.), Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas), Steve Cohen (D-Tenn.), Karen Bass (D-Calif.) and Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) as co-sponsors.

Wouldn't that require a Constitutional amendment?
