The MeidasTouch Podcast · Former Attorney General Holder Discusses Tuesday’s Election · 4 Nov 2025 podcast

The courts have generally held.

If you look at what's happening at the district court level, at the court of appeals level, doesn't matter who the president was who appointed the judge.

The judges have ruled, I think, courageously and correctly.

It's only when you get to the Supreme Court that you see these problems start to arise.

And it's the use of this overuse of the shadow docket.

You know, by taking these cases and deciding them, essentially deciding them without hearing any oral argument, without any adequate briefing, you know, deciding these really important matters in that way challenges the legitimacy of the court and does an untold amount of damage to the fabric, the legal fabric of this nation.

I think, you know, the reality is it pains me to say this.

I think the Supreme Court is a broken institution.

And it's something that has to be, I think, a part of the national conversation in 26 and in 28.

What are we going to do about the Supreme Court?

And I think that we have to think about, again, talking about the acquisition and the use of power.

If there is a democratic trifecta in 2028, and I think the possibility of that is pretty good, Supreme Court reform is something that has to be considered.

Term limits, I think, at a minimum.

potentially expanding the court is something I think that also should be considered.

We cannot leave in place, without a discussion at least, and I think without substantive reforms being put in place, this Supreme Court as it is presently constituted.

Well, Prop 50, I think, is an example of where this nation needs to be in this really challenging moment.

Here's the deal.

There's no cavalry coming.

There are no miracles that are gonna happen.

This is all about what the American people are going to do.
