Supreme Court Reform Debate Intensifies After Conservative Rulings
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries called for 'dramatic' Supreme Court reform, directly tying the Court's conservative rulings to a loss of credibility. This political signal could foreshadow legislative battles over Court structure, including potential term limits or expansion. Public approval of the Court continues to sink, with Trump's attacks and ethics scandals (Alito's $2.9M oil holdings) fueling the decline. Justice Kagan has argued the Court is not a rubber stamp for Trump, but institutional credibility remains under threat.
