Biden Slams Supreme Court's Ethics in Civil Rights Act Anniversary Speech
At the 60th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act in Austin, Texas, President Joe Biden criticized the US Supreme Court, accusing it of ethical crises and extreme decisions that threaten the integrity and independence of the American judiciary. He proposed three bold judicial reforms, including an amendment to ensure no presidential immunity for crimes committed in office.
President Joe Biden has accused the US Supreme Court of being entrenched in a 'crisis of ethics,' criticizing its recent rulings on presidential immunity, and questioning the integrity and independence of the judiciary.
Speaking at the 60th Anniversary of the Civil Rights Act in Austin, Texas, Biden condemned the court's judgment in favor of former President Donald Trump, which grants broad immunity from prosecution for former presidents.
Biden proposed three significant reforms to address these issues, including a 'No One is Above the Law Amendment,' term limits for Supreme Court justices, and a binding code of conduct for the judiciary.
