As we watch another heavy hitting block of Supreme Court decisions drop this summer, the debate over judicial independence is burning hotter than ever. With progressive groups screaming for reform and conservatives defending the bench, we want to know: how much faith do you actually have left in the high court?
Vote to join the conversation.
Mixed feelings is where most people I know are. They like some rulings and hate the process.
Court expansion feels like a short-term partisan fix that would escalate forever.
Agreed. Once expansion becomes normal, every majority will do it.
Term limits would lower the stakes of every nomination. Lifetime seats are the core problem.
Eighteen-year terms would solve a lot without blowing up the institution.
I do not think the court is illegitimate, but pretending politics is not part of this is ridiculous.
