This. Pull judges directly from the Federal Circuit; run them for 8-10 years; then send them back to the Federal Circuit as a ‘Distinguished’ judge.
Supreme Court Judges should resist political pressure; but they should not be appointed for life.
Info: A ‘Distinguished Judge’ is a former SCOTUS justice who served their complete term and cannot be re-nominated to the Supreme Court ever again. It is a lifetime title granted when they make it to the SCOTUS and complete one term.
Having a supreme court justice for each judicial district seems like a good idea to me, for a total of 13.
And also having term limits would be great.

Especially since it’s harder to corrupt a larger pool…
Or at least more expensive.
Anyone informed of this simple fact ought to want to expand the court. Who did they interview, anyway? Only the clueles?
