In an op-ed on Monday, Biden made massive claims that he believed the Supreme Court needed term limits, pointing to the recent July 1st ruling that granted presidents extended immunities for actions made while in office.

He also pointed to the overturning of Roe v. Wade, stating that these decisions and other “scandals” have “caused the public to question the court’s fairness and independence.”

As he wrote in The Washington Post:

I served as a U.S. senator for 36 years, including as chairman and ranking member of the Judiciary Committee. I have overseen more Supreme Court nominations as senator, vice president and president than anyone living today. I have great respect for our institutions and the separation of powers.

What is happening now is not normal, and it undermines the public’s confidence in the court’s decisions, including those impacting personal freedoms. We now stand in a breach.

He then laid out his “three bold reforms” that included the “No One Is Above the Law Amendment,” 18-year term limits for Supreme Court justices, and a code of conduct for the highest court.

This nation was founded on a simple yet profound principle: No one is above the law.

Not the President of the United States.
Not a justice on the Supreme Court of the United States.

So today, I’m calling for three bold reforms to restore trust and accountability to the court…

All three of these reforms are supported by a majority of Americans — as well as conservative and liberal constitutional scholars. And I want to thank the bipartisan Presidential Commission on the Supreme Court of the United States for its insightful analysis, which informed some of these proposals.

We can and must prevent the abuse of presidential power. We can and must restore the public’s faith in the Supreme Court. We can and must strengthen the guardrails of democracy.

The groundbreaking reforms would undoubtedly completely redefine the Supreme Court; an institution that has functioned roughly the same since the days of Chief Justice John Marshall.

Numerous different politicians weighed in on the matter, noting both the massive ramifications it would have and the irony that a career politician

Let me get this straight—
the 50-year career politician who tried to die in office rather than relinquish the presidency wants to force term limits on the Supreme Court?

Ever since the Supreme Court started ruling in favor of the Constitution, Biden & Harris have been calling to “reform” SCOTUS.

The Left wants to destroy the rule of law.

The reforms would still need to pass in both the House and the Senate, an unlikely reality given the polarity of the legislation.

One thing is for certain – the Democrats have their sights set on the Supreme Court.
