#termlimits

Every "#liberaldemocracy" should do some soul searching from time to time. Maybe it's time for Canadian Prime Ministers and Premiers to be given #TermLimits

The 22nd Amendment, ratified in 1951, limits presidents to two terms. It was a direct response to FDR serving four terms and aimed to prevent a president from becoming too powerful or too much like a king.

@GatekeepKen Slimeballs like #menendez are poster boys for #termlimits for everyone down to dog catcher.

What happened to Nancy Pelosi in Luxembourg? It's all over the news but only says "sustained an injury" and nothing else. HIPAA covers her, I guess, but unless it's a national security risk, they might as well tell everyone.

Did something embarrassing happen? Has she suffered a Mitch McConnell? (A glitch in the matrix w/ fall.)

Maybe it's time to retire and take it easy.

@DemocracyMattersALot

The idea of #termlimits for #scotus has merit and has been proposed by a variety of legal experts.

However no one has ever explained to me what will, or should, happen if the #Senate fails or refuses to confirm a #scotus nominee during the two-year window between terms.

Personally, I would prefer #Senator #RonWyden’s Judiciary reorganization proposal.

If Joe Manchin is involved, I'm skeptical.

Californians will vote for a new governor in 2026. That person will replace Gov. Gavin Newsom, who cannot run for another term for this office. Newsom’s current term will end January 2027. #TermLimits

Kamala Harris for Governor of California. https://abc7.com/post/poll-kamala-harris-would-top-candidate-californias-2026-gubernatorial-election-she-runs/15544011/

#Harris also wants to enact #TermLimits & an #ethics code for #SCOTUS, given the revelation that Thomas & Alito accepted luxury gifts w/o disclosing them. That’s unlikely if #Republicans control the #Senate — & maybe even if #Democrats do, thanks to the #filibuster.

There is some hope

“Yes, but: The survey found two issues that unite Americans across party and racial lines.

Nearly three-quarters of Americans (73%) favor requiring Supreme Court justices to retire at a certain age or after a certain number of years on the bench, instead of serving for life.

And a majority of Americans (68%) oppose laws that make it illegal to use or receive FDA-approved drugs such as mifepristone, also known as the abortion pill, through the mail.”

I had to edit this post because I’m dumb and I thought people needed to vote no to get mandatory retirement age.

It would be yes I am in favor of the sheriff retiring at 70 and judges retiring at 75.

PLEASE VOTE YES ON THIS.

Some of these guys fail up their whole entire lives and once they become judges we are stuck with them until they die or retire. Please don’t force them on us until their deaths.

If we can’t get term limits for some of these people the least they can do is retire once they become elderly. I don’t believe him that his mind is still intact.

Plus, don’t forget that every Covid infection ages the brain drastically. And they’re just going to keep racking up the Covid infections as they go.

Well-behaved Justices keep their job. Oh? And bribe and obstruction of justice, lying to Congress... seriously the rogues in SCOTUS by this measure are already disqualified.

A #SCOTUS Seat Is a Lifetime Appointment. Could #TermLimits Create a Fairer Court?

“Almost immediately after the U.S. #SupremeCourt ruled on presidential immunity, former President Donald #Trump lauded the decision, calling it a “big win for our #constitution and #democracy. Proud to be an American!”

President Joe #Biden took a dimmer view. “No one is above the law,” he said in a statement, “not even the president of the United States. With today’s Supreme Court decision on presidential immunity, that fundamentally changed.”

#TermLimits and a Binding #EthicsCode Can Save the #SupremeCourt from Itself

https://brennancenter.substack.com/p/term-limits-and-a-binding-ethics

#SCOTUS now has 6 #conservative justices, appointed by fmr Presidents #Trump, #GeorgeWBush & #GeorgeHWBush, & 3 #liberal ones, appointed by #POTUS #Biden & fmr Pres Barack #Obama. 3 justices, all #conservatives, have served >18 yrs: CJ #JohnRoberts, &Justices #Alito & #ClarenceThomas.

If #TermLimits had allowed the president to choose a justice every 2yrs during the most recent 4 admins, those numbers would be reversed: 6 would have been appointed by #Democratic presidents, & 3 by #Republicans.

#POTUS #Biden proposed major changes to #SCOTUS on Mon, including 18-yr #TermLimits for justices & a binding code of conduct.

Under Biden’s term-limit plan, presidents would appoint a new #SupremeCourt justice every 2 yrs. If that rule had already been in effect over the past 2 decades & each justice had served the full 18-yr term, the court’s ideological split would be flipped.
