Unfortunately, we must live with this court unless Harris wins and Democrats have majorities in Congress and have the gumption to add four new justices and replace Roberts as Chief Justice. I would also like to see Thomas impeached for his totally unethical behavior and courting of wealthy Republicans with cases before the court.

Edited to add: The Constitution allows justices to serve with good behavior. It’s time for Democrats to put some definitions of what good behavior means.
