Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) warned on Sunday that President Joe Biden’s push to “reform” the U.S. Supreme Court is about destroying it because the institution stands in the way of the Democratic Party’s agenda.
Graham made the remarks during an interview on CBS News’s “Face The Nation” when asked about the renewed push from Biden.
When asked if he could back the idea being pushed by Biden and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Graham responded: “No, because he wants to destroy the court. They want to pack the court. They want her to undercut the conservative court.”
“They’ve tried to marginalize the court and destroy the Roberts court,” he said. “The Roberts court has brought constitutional balance back to the court, and the liberals in this country want to pack the court. They want to destroy the court. So their initiatives coming from Biden will be dead on arrival in the Senate. They have no desire to make the court better. They’re just trying to make it more liberal.”
When asked about instituting term limits for Supreme Court justices, which is something that the political Left wants, Graham responded: “No, no, no, no, no, no. They didn’t complain about any of this when the court was pumping out opinions they liked. Only when we brought constitutional balance back from having a conservative court was the court a threat to the country.”
“What’s been a threat to the country is an out-of-control liberal court issuing opinions that basically take over every phase of American life based on nine people’s judgment,” he said. “So this Roberts court has brought constitutional balance back to the country. And one of the issues on the ballot in 2024 is, what kind of court do you want? If you left it up to Elizabeth Warren to pick the court, you’d had the most liberal court in the history of the world, and Kamala Harris will be right there with her.”
