Biden's unveiled a radical plan to fight the GOP judges and justices. Just kidding. His plan is "term limits for the justices and an enforceable ethics code" for the supreme court. And... that's it.

Term limits for justices would actually be good but they won't actually do it
Those same judges would say it requires a constitutional amendment anyway, to which the response would just be "oh well".
What audience is this shit for? Leftists understand that this policy and the rent caps he proposed are just empty promises for half measures, and the VBNMW crowd is already gonna vote for him. Nobody is swayed by this shit.
Lots of milquetoast libs consider themselves to be (far) more radical than they actually are. Consider a rando named Ed Burmila and how he defines himself. Emphasis mine.
Ed Burmila is a Chicago-based writer and host of Mass for Shut-ins, a podcast of leftist politics and historical arcana. He is the author of Chaotic Neutral: How the Democrats Lost Their Soul in the Center (Bold Type Books).
Another site says has a PhD in political science. At Bluesky I'm not sure how the libs would describe him. Probably as a "progressive". Recently he posted a screengrab Will Menaker joke. Libs don't know who Will Menaker so it was okay for him to do that. I'd bet money Burmila has only very rarely (maybe never) typed out the words "Chapo" and put that into a post. He wants engagement and likes. He knows libs despise Chapo. They might block or mute him if he used that nasty word.
So - what did he think of the WaPo article? His quote post is...
The best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago, and the second-best time is now.

Supreme court: "No."
Biden: "Ok."
This level of shit is entirely to be expected yet I'm mad as fuck anyway. I'd seriously prefer they have have no plan at all rather than this garbage. Libs will mention this and say "Vote!" and I [redacted].
fuck you "click all the blocks" for the third fucking time eat fucking shit I hope you fucking dieooh did you get the ol' archive.is/ph/etc infinite captcha loop? I used to be stuck in that all the time, I don't know what changed but I stopped getting it
You gained sentience, that's what happened.
Bit idea: Get this passed and then overturned by the supreme Court
A notable lawyer's take
At the risk of being precisely who everyone expects me to be, I don’t think you can put term limits on justices without a constitutional amendment, and I’m 100% confident at least five current justices think you can’t.

Calling it a plan is generous
I hate them
