Subpoena them one by one and confront them about specific issues. For instance Thomas and all those billionaire friends who keep dropping money in his lap. Congress committees have the power to do this.
Let sunlight into the dirty little acts of corruption and impeach. Hit them instead of just complaining all the damn time. Also, six or seven year term limits. Then every single president will get a chance to appoint a couple and the bench makeup will be more balanced.
Congressional subpoenas mean absolutely nothing after Trump’s term though. They’ll just ignore then and what, you expect Merrick Garland to arrest a Supreme Court Justice for contempt of Congress? If it even gets that far.
Not so, I believe that Steve Bannon is going to the lockup for ignoring his in a week or so. I don’t fancy that the supremes will want to risk that. It just takes will to apply the law. That’s it.
Of course, the Dems will huff and puff and do nothing.

That’s my point, Merrick Garland of all people, Mr I don’t want to appear political so I’ll slow walk trump, isnt going to arrest a Supreme Court Justice mere months before an election if he ever would in the first place.
By which time they will have decided Trump v. Biden 2024 in a repeat of 2000. Or at least that’s what my depression brain is telling me. Logical me says it will definitely take years but they’ll end up impeached or having their seat stolen out form under them around about 2026. At which point they’ll claim they’re retiring and Sinclair news will blast every local news station with stories about how concerning it is to see politicians running judges out of office. But we’ll get through it.
If Gym Jordan doesn’t have to comply with a congressional subpoena, what makes you think Clarence Thomas will?
I’m not sure of the person you refer to (sorry, not American) but surely that’s the problem. Not applying the law equally. Can a common murderer or thief decide that a legal direction doesn’t apply to them?
Jim Jordan (Gym is a nickname from years ago when he allowed students to get molested by a school doctor) is a representative from the state of Ohio who was involved with the January 6th plot to overthrow the government.
When they investigated it, they subpoenaed him and he refused to show up. So far it’s been 3 years and no action has been taken whatsoever.
He helped plot a coup, he’s STILL in power, and he ignored a subpoena from Congress with no consequences whatsoever.
He ranks considerably lower than the Supreme Court does in the grand scheme of things and if they’re not going to force him to comply, they won’t force any of the federal justices to comply.
