Joe Biden is leaving the rigging of the election to others and that frees him up to attempt to make changes to the Supreme Court even though it violates the separation of powers. And of course Marxist VP Harris heartedly agrees with the proposal. Part of his goal is to do away with Trump’s immunity and to have term limits for SCOTUS justices. That of course would have dire consequences for Biden unless he plans to use the insanity defense.
A White House fact sheet reads:
“He is calling for a constitutional amendment that makes clear no President is above the law or immune from prosecution for crimes committed while in office. This ‘No One Is Above the Law Amendment’ will state that the Constitution does not confer any immunity from federal criminal indictment, trial, conviction, or sentencing by virtue of previously serving as President.”
This of course is ludicrous and the4 odds of getting such a constitutional amendment passed is as likely as Harris winning the election honestly.

Article V
The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.
Biden also proposed term limits for the Supreme Court justices, suggesting that the president appoint a justice every two years to then spend eighteen years in active service. The president called on Congress to pass a code of conduct for the justices to abide by that would require them to “disclose gifts, refrain from public political activity, and recuse themselves from cases in which they or their spouses have financial or other conflicts of interest.”
“We can and must prevent the abuse of presidential power. We can and must restore the public’s faith in the Supreme Court. We can and must strengthen the guardrails of democracy. In America, no one is above the law. In America, the people rule,” Biden wrote.
Harris states:
Vice President Kamala Harris, and now presumptive Democratic presidential nominee, backed Biden in his proposals for the Supreme Court in a statement Monday.
“And finally, in our democracy, no one should be above the law. So we must also ensure that no former President has immunity for crimes committed while in the White House,” Harris said, alluding to the recent ruling surrounding Trump. The ruling found that presidents have immunity from criminal prosecution for “official acts” taken in office.
The White House fact sheet states that Biden and Harris are “looking forward” to working with Congress in an effort to “restore faith in the Supreme Court.”
“All three of these reforms are supported by a majority of Americans — as well as conservative and liberal constitutional scholars. And I want to thank the bipartisan Presidential Commission on the Supreme Court of the United States for its insightful analysis, which informed some of these proposals,” Biden wrote. “We can and must prevent the abuse of presidential power. We can and must restore the public’s faith in the Supreme Court. We can and must strengthen the guardrails of democracy.”
