    The only way to remove a SCOTUS Justice is for Congress to impeach and convict them.

    What could be done without that is court packing (increase the number of justices to dilute the influence of each one) or possibly adding term limits (there is an argument to be made that the “lifetime term” they currently have isn’t actually mandated by the Constitution) but that one’s trickier and more controversial.
