Yeah it’s pretty disheartening when SCOTUS makes a bat shit ruling and we are all supposed to just abide by it. If they have a heinous ruling they should be thrown out over it.
I don’t see how that would work if they are making decisions on things congress has passed. Congress could then choose to ignore the decision they make leaving the SC pretty useless.
the point is to make elected officials take credit for supreme court rulings and responsibility for them. It could easily be setup as “either the senate or house must confirm a supreme court ruling for it to take effect”. This way every supreme court ruling requires political capital to enforce. If the supreme court deviates too far into the unpopular they will simply be stalled.
This is the supreme court rewriting the 4th, 5th, and 14th amendments against search, seizure and due process.
There should be additional checks and balances on supreme court decisions such as their decisions not taking effect unless approved by congress.

The left hand washes the right hand
Both sides, amirite? /s
No, but the corruption in all layers in government means that checks and balances are more then a little moot.
