Thumper---Supreme Court reform.

The summer of reversals for President Joe Biden continued in dramatic form on Monday as he announced that he now supports sweeping Supreme Court reform. In an op-ed for the Washington Post, Biden pushed 18-year term limits and a binding ethics code on Supreme Court justices — after a long career spent opposing such measures — as well as a constitutional amendment overturning the court’s recent decision granting presidents immunity from criminal prosecution.
Is it too little too late?
After all, Biden is now a lame-duck president, and he faces a Republican-held House that won’t go anywhere near these proposals. Even when Democrats had full control of Washington in Biden’s first two years as president, the party shied away from Supreme Court reform — thanks in significant part to the ambivalence and intransigence of Biden himself.
