#Politics #SCOTUS From #CNN ... The vote was 8-1, with Thomas the lone dissent.
"The Supreme Court upheld a federal law Friday that bars guns for domestic abusers, rejecting an argument pressed by gun rights groups that the prohibition violated the Second Amendment.

@cmskiera I've always thought that judges should be subject to period review -- not re-election or reappointment, but a review by an independent panel of lawyers and other judges.
Term limits wouldn't do the job, because then they're still not accountable.
With #SCOTUS, though, it would require a constitutional amendment, I suspect.
Because of course. Can't wait to read about Thomas's reasoning on this one. Probably because husbands were allowed by law to abuse their wives in the 1700's(?)

Uncle Thomas giving zero shits, @WordsmithFL 🙄
