The Supreme Court

   

        When you hear the term, "Supreme Court", anyone with common sense is aware that this level of court holds a very high power among the United States Government. Now I am not a history buff, but I do enjoy learning new things about our Government. A little background on The Supreme Court, The Supreme Court was first established in 1789, which has been 233 years since that point of origin. It is also the highest federal court in the country. According to the article, there was an act created and signed by the President, who at that point in time was George Washington. This Act clearly stated this specific court would be made up of six justices. These Justices would serve on the court until they died or retired. As of now, the court is currently made of nine justices. 

 

                 After my investigation to acquire the Insight for the readers, I have learned that in some cases The Supreme Court holds a lot of power and in some very rare cases hold more power over the President of The United States. This to me was very surprising considering how powerful the president actual and how it seems the government is like a scale it continues to sway back and forth, it may never be equal, but sometimes it will come close. There are different rankings in the Supreme Court. Within the court system, the Chief of Justice is the highest judicial officer. As said in the article, the Chief of Justice presides over the Supreme Court and their trials, such as impeachment against the President of The United States.
