The rightward tilt in the court has Democrats talking about changes for the US Supreme Court…..
That is unlikely….
(But Trump HAS shown something’s thought unimagable CAN be Changed, eh?)
But the message IS clear…….
The two Right swinging ring leaders ARE in the sights of a incoming Democratic Wave in Congress….
Politics and the High Court?
“One bill proposes increasing the number of Supreme Court justices from nine to 13. Another would cut their lifetime terms to 18 years. Others would create an enforceable ethics code and place standards on how the court rules from its relatively opaque ‘shadow docket,’” the Washington Post reports.
”The latest wave of proposals to overhaul the Supreme Court have reached something of a fever pitch over the past few months, as Democrats grow increasingly frustrated with the court’s rightward turn. While the court blocked several of President Donald Trump’s key initiatives this past term, it also delivered significant conservative victories that pared back the 1965 Voting Rights Act, loosened campaign finance rules and increased presidential power.”
