Various reforms of #SupremeCourt —court expansion, #termlimits, court balancing, and #ethics reform. All of these accept premise that #SCOTUS should keep its power over #elected branches of #government. These reforms R focused on forcing court 2 use #power more fairly, more justly, w less #corruption. While those R noble goals, underlying premise is flawed. Instead of reforming how Supreme Court uses its #power, what if we took its power away? #democracy #courts #maga thenation.com/podcast/society/…

On this episode of the Contempt of Court podcast, a deep dive into jurisdiction stripping.The Nation
Some good ideas here -
1) Expand #SupremeCourt, impose 18-year #TermLimits, enact enforceable #ethics rules. Strip #SCotUS of #jurisdiction over certain topics.
2) Facilitate the passing of the Nat'l Popular Vote Interstate Compact; ends #ElectoralCollege
3) #Prosecute all #crimes committed by this admin./ fire all who joined #ICE recently
4) National law against any #gerrymandering. Independent panels create #voting districts.

This is a crisis of democracy. What will Dems do about it?
They need a bold and radical political reform agenda, or things will only get worse.Paul Waldman (Public Notice)
