“What is happening now is not normal”

President Biden will on Monday publish an op-ed calling, as expected, for major reforms to the Supreme Court following some pretty fucked up shit in both the far right majority’s rulings and ethical conduct, according to excerpts shared with Politico ahead of printing in an unspecified paper.

“What is happening now is not normal, and it undermines the public’s confidence in the court’s decisions, including those impacting personal freedoms… We now stand in a breach,” Biden writes in the piece, which comes with a speech set for Monday at the LBJ Presidential Library in Texas.

“The nation was founded on a simple yet profound principle: No one is above the law. Not the president of the United States. Not a justice of the Supreme Court of the United States,” the piece continues. In it Biden outlines his proposals for an enforceable code of ethics but the mechanisms and penalties for enforcement remain vague. What’s less vague is the likely outcome: That nothing will happen in Congress this year given that it would be pointless for Senate Democrats to abolish the filibuster to pass reforms only for Jesus Dork House Speaker Mike Johnson to ignore it.

That’s different than saying this is a waste of time and energy. It isn’t. Making accountability for an unaccountable court a middle term reach goal for the next Democratic trifecta in Washington is a worthwhile policy statement for the party and a no-brainer as a campaign strategy.
