Between multiple ethical lapses by taking serious money from third parties with an interest in pending cases, violating disclosure laws, and even acting like a political body - overturning a 50 y.o. precedent and restricting rights simply because the right-wing got a voting majority, they are seriously undermining the nation's confidence in the institution.
Sadly, reform is impossible as long as we have no consensus that democracy or liberty is even good, and one party
tries to undermine both in their attempts to stay in power.
