US president also to seek constitutional amendment to limit immunity for presidents and various officeholders
Joe Biden will announce plans to reform the US supreme court on Monday, Politico reported, citing two people familiar with the matter, adding that the US president was likely to back term limits for justices and an enforceable code of ethics.
Biden said earlier this week during an Oval Office address that he would call for reform of the court.
He is also expected to seek a constitutional amendment to limit immunity for presidents and some other officeholders, Politico reported, in the aftermath of a July supreme court ruling that presidents have broad immunity from prosecution.
Biden will make the announcement in Texas on Monday and the specific proposals could change, the report added.
Now that he doesn’t have to worry about getting reelected, he doesn’t have to pussyfoot around anymore.
What if we just made the limit 1 term? Then no presidents would be doing actions purely to get reelected?
It’s helpful not totally replace the executive branch every four years if you don’t have to

Can’t wait for him to flip the table on Israel

Arguably, this is still pussyfooting since there’s no fucking way he has anything near the number of votes needed for this.
Not entirely sure that matters here.
I really don’t think there’s that many people towards the middle or left of the political spectrum that are going to be upset about this if he gets the changes through.
Besides, any changes that might bother voters will still have an effect on Kamala’s campaign until the elections over in November.
