The approval rating of The Supreme Court has plummeted to historic lows. Between the Court's radical rulings and blatant displays of corruption, the American people have lost faith in this Court. What can Congress do to win it back?

Expand the court to equal the amount of circuits. Term limits. Judges to be elected by popular vote. Only atheists may serve. Anyone who has accepted corporate donations may not serve.

Fire the corrupt justices, put term limits in place, expand the court and let Biden pick the next 3 justices without GOP having any say. That's a good start.

This Congress? Nothing. The only way to remove a Supreme Court Justice is, theoretically, impeachment but the numbers don't exist in either house of this Congress. Expanding the SCOTUS up to 13, one for each Circuit, would be more likely.

#ExpandTheCourt
And also, hold hearings, and issue subpoenas to Thomas and Alito, so the American people can see that Congress is DOING SOMETHING about the corruption, and not just ignoring it.

It's time to consider constitutional updates. The last 10 yrs has been a very revealing stress test on how all of our critical institutions operate. We need more codified into law rather than rules and traditions. And yes, we need SCOTUS oversight. To do this we need the oval office and both houses.

Isn't it the job of the Supreme Court to win back its ratings? Congress should impeach/eject 2/3 of these clowns. And have Biden replace them with sane folks. That will auto improve the ratings.
