  1. Some good ideas here -
    1) Expand #SupremeCourt, impose 18-year #TermLimits, enact enforceable #ethics rules. Strip #SCotUS of #jurisdiction over certain topics.
    2) Facilitate the passing of the Nat'l Popular Vote Interstate Compact; ends #ElectoralCollege
    3) #Prosecute all #crimes committed by this admin./ fire all who joined #ICE recently
    4) National law against any #gerrymandering. Independent panels create #voting districts.

  2. BREAKING: Congressman Johnny Olszewski (D-MD) is introducing a constitutional amendment to establish term limits for Supreme Court Justices.
    The ROBE Act would establish 18-year term limits for justices. #SCROTUS #SCOTUS #TermLimits #RuleOfLaw

  3. @ThomHartmann #TermLimits or #SeniorityRules on Committees. #Congress cannot have *both*. At least one must go to put an end to endemic #corruption in #USpol.

    #Resist loudly and intelligently.

  4. . We need to bring back retirement age. Everyone’s been paying into SSI since we were KIDS! 60 should be the age. That includes OUR GOVERNMENT. Everyone should be able to sit down at 60 PERIOD! And 60 should be the cap for gov officials. #AgeLimits #TermLimits #SSI #Retirement .

  6. A quotation from George Carliln

       In the midst of all my bitching, you might’ve noticed that I never complain about politicians. I leave that to others. And there’s no shortage of volunteers; everyone complains about politicians. Everyone says they suck.
       But where do people think these politicians come from? They don’t fall out of the sky; they don’t pass through a membrane from a separate reality. They come from American homes, American families, American schools, American churches, and American businesses. And they’re elected by American voters. This is what our system produces, folks. This is the best we can do. Let’s face it, we have very little to work with. Garbage in, garbage out.
       Ignorant citizens elect ignorant leaders, it’s as simple as that. And term limits don’t help. All you do is get a brand new bunch of ignorant leaders.

    George Carlin (1937-2008) American comedian
    Book (2001), Napalm & Silly Putty, “Don’t Blame the Leaders”

  7. . We need to go back to standalone bills. I’m sick of Congress sliding random agendas into laws that have nothing to do with what the bill’s about. That’s how corruption hides in the fine print. It should be illegal. #Congress #TermLimits #Senate .

  9. A quotation from Will Rogers

    Well, here in California, people were thinking and voting on whether to keep a governor four years or eight. I think a good, honest governor should get four years, and the others life!

    Will Rogers (1879-1935) American humorist
    Column (1927-11-08), “Daily Telegraph: Will Rogers Has An Idea About Terms for Governors”
    [405]

  10. 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.

  12. @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.

  13. #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.
