Joe Biden declared that implementing term limits would be one of his last acts before vanishing from Washington. No, he is not demanding that Congress heed to term limits. Biden himself is a career politician who profited from a lifetime of rubbing elbows with the establishment at the expense of the people. He would not dare to implement laws that would hurt his remaining allies in Washington. The real reason that the establishment want justices to have term limits is because they fear a Trump majority SCOTUS.
The Supreme Court of the United States was created over 233 years ago in 1789 and there have been 116 serving Justices. Justices are appointed for life, with the average Justice serving for around 16 years. Cyclically, a new judge enters the SCOTUS every two to three years.
“The next president is likely to have two new Supreme Court nominees. Two more. He’s already appointed two that have been very negative in terms of rights of individuals,” Biden commented. Trump named three justices during his term – Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanagh and Amy Coney Barrett – cementing the conservative majority on the bench.”
The Democrats are using abortion, Roe v. Wade, as their reasoning behind abolishing the current structure of the highest court. These politicians do not care about human rights. They are angered that the SCOTUS has ruled against the establishment time and time again. The court denied the establishment the opportunity to force Trump off the ballot. Even the liberal Justices unanimously agreed that states do not have the authority to enforce Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment.
The Supreme Court has overturned Chevron U.S.A. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, which permitted government agencies to implement the rule of law, bypassing the federal judicial system. Absolutely every facet of American life is partially controlled by unelected government agencies who need not abide by a uniform rule of law before implementing regulations. Revoking the Chevron doctrine took away tools of the deep state such as forcing the EPA to carry out climate imitative or permitting the FDA to advocate government-approved COVID-19 treatments. Even the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has lost power in controlling America’s financial markets as a result of this ruling.
There is no place for constitutional law in an increasingly tyrannical justice system.
Biden could only implement term limits through an amendment to the Constitution itself or pushing legislation through congress. A proposed constitutional amendment must receive two-thirds of support by state legislations. Thirty-eight of the 50 members must agree to ratification. This option would leave less room for interpretation or continued legal review.
The second method would be implementing legislation through Congress, and it would be of no surprise if a bill is currently being drafted. The House and Senate would need to agree on such term limits without overtly abandoning Article III of the Constitution that outlines the power of the judicial branch.
All politicians should have term limits to prevent careers that lead to corruption and tyranny. The American justice system was based upon the Roman Republic, which collapsed because of pervasive internal corruption by career politicians. A Roman dictator was a magistrate of the Roman Republic, to whom they entrusted the full authority of the state to deal with some emergency or to undertake a specific duty. Every other magistrate was subordinate to his rule. Even the right of the plebeian tribunes, which no one could touch and had the power to charge politicians, could not veto his actions, and any right to appeal was extremely limited. We see a similar aspect in the US Congress because each side will oppose the other to deprive them of any credit. However, at least a dictator could not be bribed.
A Roman dictation could never roam freely and charge people with crimes outside of his appointed purpose. We see special prosecutors like Mueller violate his authority in this manner. Additionally, a Roman dictator was obligated to resign his office once his appointed task had been completed.
If the SCOTUS faces term limits, then all public officials should be held to the same standard. We are watching the likes of Joe Biden preferring to waste away in office than to step down. We witness them profiting through insider trading, and even the “big man” in the highest office was coerced into bringing the entire nation into a war to protect his special interests. The power to indict must be taken away from the Department of Justice and that decision should be also presented to a panel of independent lawyers who make that decision, not a prosecutor. There should also be no prosecutorial immunity. America must be restored to a system that is FOR THE PEOPLE.
