Biden was a lame duck way before he won the presidency.

It is just a tease for the looney base. Something to capture the media to keep them from having to be confronted with the truth

I think that's why Biden is proposing a Constitutional amendment...


Which has zero percent chance of passing never mind being ratified by 2/3 of the states.

Let's see, the one person who has been in government over fifty years, who has been determined by a federal prosecutor incompetent to stand trail is wanting to change the laws on another branch of government. Totally amazing. But I am for term limits, especially Congress and competency tests for all employees after a certain age. Will the democrats never learn and leave the courts alone? If Harry Reid had left it alone but he wanted the simple majority and now you got the whining.

Biden didn't propose nothing except threaten Mike Johnson's life today

The legislative branch cannot impose term limits or anything else upon the judicial branch according to the US Constitution. The legislative branch can impose term limits on themselves.

SCOTUS Term Limits are a Great Idea

Congressional Term Limits are a Great Idea.

No! the Marxist Democrats are not trying to destroy our Democracy. Oh no for sure they are not. Just the FBI, DOJ, IRS, and now the Supreme Court. It sure ain't Republicans

There's no way an amendment to apply term limits to USSC judges passes.

If President Biden felt strongly about reforming the federal courts one is compelled to ask why he didn't make similar proposals while serving as Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee? Nothing has changed save the ideological makeup of the Supreme Court.


I do not oppose President Biden's proposals because they were made by President Biden. I oppose them because they are politically motivated. The Founding Fathers gave lifetime appointments to the Federal Judiciary to insulate those Judges and Justices from the other two branches of government.

You shouldn't take this seriously enough to bother posting it.

It's just joe pretending he is doing something.

It would take yrs to pass something like this.

First you have to win the white house the senate and the house.

And you won't be able to cheat enough to do that.

You can bet they are plotting how to do that.

Hey antZtok. YOU might not comprehend this but your boy, demented pedo joe, is well known as one of the lamest ducks ever to occupy the White House.


Why do YOU feel compelled to pay any attention to his desires?

This won't fly as there is a stated separation of powers; judicial, legislative, and executive (checks and balances) per the US Constitution. If this balance is usurped and true dictatorship (one man) or pure democracy (mob rule) is imposed, you better prepare for a bloodbath in everytown, USA. Most of you ain't.

Term limits for all. Stock trading disclosure with an actual punishment . No his memory is too bad to prosecute for classified documents being in his garage, Kamala said she believed Biden's accusers about his bad conduct . Etc

Term limits for all branches on the government makes sense.

If Congress first imposes term limits on themselves then I'll take them serious on this issue.

Historically, Republicans and Democrats have greed on Supreme Court reform... including an end to lifetime appointments.

In response, Biden proposed an amendment to the US Constitution that would no longer make former Presidents immune from criminal prosecution, as well as a plan for staggered 18 year appointments, with a new Justice being appointed every 2 years.

He is also pushing for a new code of ethics that would require Justices to disclose gifts... like the millions in gifts that were recently discovered.


Do you agree or disagree?

These are policies that we've pretty much all agreed on in the past, but does the fact that it's Biden presenting it change your opinion?
