Stephen Spaulding @stevespaulding.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Today @hankjohnson.house.gov introduced the TERM Act—a bill to create 18-year term limits for Supreme Court justices. The bottom line is this: no one should hold too much power for too long. 1/ 616143
James Meguerian @gottobeaspirit.bsky.social · 21/05/2025No can do. Unconstitutional. Just like the invalidated term limits bill 010
Dread Meadow @deadlyflowers.bsky.social · 21/05/2025Term limits run smack into Constitutionality issues. Rotating randomly-selected justices for a shorter, fixed term on the SCOTUS bench from the pool of term-unlimited federal judges sidesteps the issue and neutralizes the problem. 000
Stephen Spaulding @stevespaulding.bsky.social · 21/05/2025The Supreme Court plays a critical role in our system of checks and balances. It's an institution that the public needs to trust. Unfortunately, public trust in the Supreme Court has plummeted in recent years. www.annenbergpublicpolicycenter.org/trust-in-us-... 2/annenbergpublicpolicycenter.orgTrust in U.S. Supreme Court Continues to Sink | The Annenberg Public Policy Center of the University of PennsylvaniaAPPC survey reveals that public trust in the U.S. Supreme Court has declined since it eliminated the constitutional right to abortion in 2022. 1277
It Ain't Me. @notimeforbs.bsky.social · 21/05/2025We need additional safeguards as well. Extremism is bad enough but undeniable corruption like that of Thomas has NO PLACE on any court, much less SCOTUS. 000
