Biden Tasks Special Commission With 'Studying' Potential Expansion of Supreme Court President Joseph Biden has put together a 36-member bipartisan commission, comprised mostly of academics, to "study" different potential changes to the Supreme Court including term limits and adding more justices. Actually making changes to the court would likely cause Mitch McConnell to light himself on fire in the Senate chamber. But Biden is taking a politically necessary baby step to appease liberals who remain furious that an orange-faced charlatan who once had a TV show was able to pack the court with three conservative justices during his four years in office.
