Opinion: Want to reform the Supreme Court? These strongmen can show a thing or two
Briefly

Venezuela's descent into rank illiberalism also started with the best of democratic intentions.
In any democracy worthy of the name, throwing oneself before justice would be the honorable course, except it's not the case in Venezuela due to years of authoritarian rule.
Venezuelan courts have been manipulated and purged under Chavismo, leading to the breakdown of constitutional checks and balances, contributing to the country's economic collapse.
While the U.S. may need judicial reforms, caution is advised by looking at Venezuela's example to avoid descending into authoritarianism.
