I constantly see that the current US Supreme Court makes inconstitucional rulings like for example, allowing racial profiling.
For what little I’ve gathered due to separation of powers. The supreme court is just a designated authority. Why hasn’t there been any movement that just aims to de-legitimize the current supreme Court?
Why can’t a judge say “I denounce the Supreme courts authority for their failing to uphold the spirit of the law and now I shall follow this other courts rulings”?
Only one Supreme Court justice has been impeached, and even then they weren’t removed from office. You would need to have a judge do horrific things to get removed from office.
Like make up law, take bribes and shit on the constitution in favor of a goddamn fascist think tank‽
There aren’t any real standards right now obviously. I just personally think the ethical bar for impeachment shouldn’t be in hell though.
I don’t look at it from an ethical bar, but functional. The political conditions where impeachment is likely is rare.
Big difference between what should be and what is across a broad spectrum of things right now.
