For it to be fair, or as fair as such an entity can be, there should be an equal number, say six of each. Six conservative judges and six liberals. Any ruling would require someone from the opposite side agree with the other.
We should get to vote on who holds the seat every four years.
And they should never rule on the executive branch- we should. Punishment and removal, extention of authority, immunties...it should all be put to public vote concerning the executive branch.

One word for you: Apathy.
90 mil didn’t bother to vote - expecting them to actively participate in something like this?

u/thewalruscandyman Sep 03 '26
Eventually, yes. Simply because this apathy is relatively new. Conservatives and Republicans have long pushed that narrative. That it doesn't matter. That both sides are the same. It's all to dissuade people from voting. And it worked. Only because we let it. There was a time when people had to fight for the right to vote, and now that it's looking like we'll be doing that again and it will snap some people out of it.
Do I expect them to participate? You can bet your bottom dollar I do.

This is all due to Mitch McConnell. He’s wanted to have conservatives controlling the Supreme Court for decades, because if you can have your people as the referees, then all the disputes will be settled in your favor.
Remember, he invoked the nuclear option in 2017 to get Gorsuch on the Supreme Court: https://www.npr.org/2017/04/06/522847700/senate-pulls-nuclear-trigger-to-ease-gorsuch-confirmation
This is AFTER he blocked Merrick Garland’s hearing, and McConnell hasn’t been shy about letting people know it was a thinly-veiled excuse to pack the court. After Gorsuch was Kavanaugh and Barrett, and with that the GOP has a 6-3 majority that, barring any change, will last for decades, happily rewriting laws to suit conservatives, stare decisis be damned. In the meantime, Democrats got…a black woman on the Supreme Court under Biden! What a banner day for Democracy! What a wonderful gesture that is currently meaningless, but might pay off in 10-20 years if and when Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito step down, providing that Democrats have control of the Presidency and the Senate. Better get out there and vote, kids!
What Democrats need to do is expand the court and rebalance it. Expand the court to 13 to match the number of districts, then bring up hard-line liberals on the court. If Republicans won’t vote for them, tough. Keep sending in liberal Supreme Court picks, because Republicans would never compromise on their picks, so neither should Democrats. It’s high time for Democrats to stop pretending that Republicans even remotely care about the rules. They proved that when they fell in line behind Trump.

Laws need to be decided. Whether it was nine, two, or 50 (one for each state) there needs to be an ultimate arbiter of laws (separate from other government bodies).
Lifetime appointments are supposed to limit the possibility of influence from outside parties. Once a justice is in, they don’t need to worry about reelection, appeasing the people that appointed them, or fear retribution (like being removed) as a means of influencing decisions.
This specific group of Supreme Court justices is a blight on the progress of the United States towards an inclusive society. That doesn’t mean the function and structure of the Supreme Court is flawed.
As shite as it seems, democracy means sometimes the other side gets its way. How many pro lifers were enraged by Roe vs Wade? They had to endure women having their right to bodily autonomy constitutionally protected. Now, the tables have turned and it’s the people on the side of progress who have to suffer.
The tables will turn again. At some point, progress will win. In the long run, it always does. There will be backlash and whining by those who want to hang onto a past that’s best left in the past. We just have to keep hope alive.

The whole concept behind the judicial branch, and specifically the Supreme Court, was that it would be as apolitical as possible.

Absent getting them to resign or removed for cause, the only other solution would be to add to the number of judges to neutralize the corruption.

the concept of a supreme court is a good one, the appeals process has to terminate somewhere, after all.
but the way we manage ours is bad. Not enough bodies on the court, and not enough protections to keep bad actors within the court from causing harm.
IMO, the court should be expanded to at least 3x its current size, and justices for each case before the court should be randomly selected from among that number. make 'em all throw a D20 to see who takes which cases.

Justices at the Supreme Court should be voted in, not personally appointed by the Supreme Leader king of the land. It severely weakens the separation of power in a country that is severely politicized and polarized.
Justices should also have terms, like any elected official. Having a bad apple serve for life is ridiculous. It severely weakens the institution's ability to be impartial in a extremely politicized and polarized country.
This is common sense. Any country that follows a federal supreme court with unelected justices who serve for life are extremely vulnerable to what's happening in Nazi USA

Lifetime appointments shouldn't exist. A sensible system would rotate justices out, maybe having the most senior justice retire every two years. I’d even support some form of direct vote rather than relying entirely on presidential appointments.
As for the argument that the Court doesn't "control" our lives, that ignores how it actually works. While I disagree with many of their rulings, their job is to interpret the law. If the majority of the country dislikes how a law is being interpreted, the real solution is to hold Congress accountable and demand they pass clear, straightforward legislation instead of using legislation to pass pet projects and creating word salad legislation

Well the United States was founded on the principle that Government should be run by a "Consensus or Reasonable Men" according to Hamilton, Adams and Pickering. If we change "men" to people to avoid feeling misogynistic then that previous statement would apply to the current court system whereby a consensus of "people" would define and control our lives and protect us from our own bad decisions in the quintessential Nanny State. So SCOTUS is doing what it is supposed to do according to our Founding Mothers/Fathers...aka telling us to do and protecting us from the dangers of too much liberty.
To change this we would first have to challenge the concept of "reasonable men (people)" controlling our lives from birth until death and after death in terms of the Death Tax and Cemetary Rules that exclude and prevent First Nations Traditional Burial Rituals.
But I see no one doing this challenge. It would require a presidential candidate to do so and for he/she/they/them/zer to figure out policies that would meaningfully challenge the concept

u/jdavid Sep 03 '26
Every session of congress ( 2-years ) we should add one SCOTUS to the court no matter what.
It's already constitutional, no amendment needed. A simple 51-49 vote is needed in the Senate to make this law, and 50%+1 in the House of Representatives.
Over time this would likely grow the court to many more people than 9. With an average life expectancy of 80, and nomination age dropping to 40, that would mean the average court size would be 20. If lifespan grew to 100, and nomination age dropped to 30, then that would be 35 justices.
I think having between 9-35 justices is just fine.
Here are the advantages.
* it pushes SCOTUS towards the current 2-year opinion majority in the country.
* it will stabilize the courts opinion by having more people on it
* it will encourage politicians to nominate younger justices ( new thinking )
* justices will likely span more generations
* no need to amend the constitution for 'old justices' as they will become very out numbered by young healthy justices, and their vote will be less likely a 'key deciding vote.' I think they will trend more towards retirement when health is an issue, since each justice will have a 1/20th -> 1/35th voting power.
* it will make it harder to tailor an argument to 4+1 justices, a court of 20-35 people will respond to a broader number of arguments, and arguments will need to trend towards more centrist viewpoints to win.
* it will make SCOTUS feel less like a political power grab, since it will become much more difficult to add '3-4 justices' and gain full control of the court in one admin.
* it will normalize EVERY president getting 2 justices
* it will normalize no president getting 3 justices ever again
* if a president won two elections and got 2 justices, 2 of 20, or 2 of 35 justices would not completely swing the court
* it makes it harder for a president to 'influence the court' in a big swing
* it prevents congress from withholding a president/congress from electing a SCOTUS.
* it makes SCOTUS boring and routine
* it means "EVERY PRESIDENT" gets 2 SCOTUS choices.
I would add one rule here, if Congress does not approve a SCOTUS in their session, then a national election can be held for a member of SCOTUS. So if congress tries to withhold a president from placing a SCOTUS, then the Nation can vote on which SCOTUS to add instead of congress, as congress has then abdicated it's duty, and the citizens should take on that duty.
I think this is a non-partisan solution to the current issues at hand. It doesn't provide a huge power swing to any one party and it drives SCOTUS to a more average ruling over more Justice Opinions.
Sure congress could play games still:
* politically push one party for 'older justices' ( this would trend to how it is now )
* politically push for justices with longer expected lifespans
* stall and force a national vote on the Justice delaying a justice to the court by up to 23 months, but this would only result in a 1/20th or less effect on political power, so they may burn more political capital than it's worth by attempting to de-normalize SCOTUS selection.
To me this is the most fair solution, and does not entrench democrats or republicans forever, as other parties could have an opportunity to win a justice seat. I don't think we should entrench political parties even further into our constitution.

They don’t, they interpret cases that are brought to them as they pertain to the Constitution. They hear maybe 100-150 of the 7000-8000 cases presented to them. Considering the total cases filed in the US, the Supreme Court hears a minuscule tiny tiny percentage of them. They just get more press than the rest.
Your Congress and the lower courts have much much much more influence on your life than the Supreme Court. If your representatives very carefully enact good laws, they will never see the inside of a cortroom, let alone lone the Supreme Court.

They don’t have control, they have a mandate to interpret legal standing for cases brought before them. Only congress has the ability to legislate and they are elected by the people. The Supreme Court reads laws and determines if things brought before them have legal standing. Conservatives tend to take an originalist view of the constitution and interpret laws through how they were originally thought to mean. Most liberal justices try to apply their modern interpretation based on standards today (which in my view is closer to legislating than adjudication).
The funny thing is many liberals liked RBG, but even she had an issue with Roe v. Wade because it went too far and relied on shaky constitutional standing (another way of saying it was not the correct interpretation of law). She was very much pro-choice but she realized that the constitution didn’t really offer legal standing to go as far as it did, and rather thought legislation should be passed (which is not the role of the Supreme Court). I know many were unhappy with the reversal of Roe v. Wade but i think the outcome was closer to what RBG felt from a legal standpoint. The court did strike down some of the more extreme cases brought before it in the aftermath of the reversal but the reality is that is should be a state issue unless congress decides to legislate something.
All this is to say I don’t think the argument holds up. And if it were left leaning justices filling the majority I doubt you would feel the same way. That makes it hypocritical to attack them and you know it.
