"Mr. President, I think it should be handed over to FBI for full responsibility." Hoover looked at Roosevelt with his deep eagle-like eyes.

"So far...who has the right candidate for the new chief of staff appointment?" Roosevelt changed the subject and threw out a new temptation.

"Mr. President." Hoover stood up and said first: "If no one investigated the death of the Chief of Staff, how should the government convince the people?"

After looking at Hoover deeply, Roosevelt said calmly: "It's not that you give up the investigation, but everything needs evidence. My Director FBI, do you understand?"

"Yes." Hoover glanced at everyone with a cold and disdainful look, and turned around and left without waiting for Roosevelt to speak.

Bang.

The door rang, and everyone turned their eyes to Roosevelt, wanting to see his reaction.

The director's performance was becoming more and more rampant, but everyone was secretive about it. No one knew how much "information he had in his hands."

It is said that even our President has scandals in his hands.

"We need a new Army Chief of Staff, about the investigation... and leave it to FBI." Roosevelt put an end to the matter.

And his true thoughts could not be seen in his gentle smile.

...

...

Club 22, Los Angeles.

"Is there any news about Justice Hugo?" In the office, Li Zitao was having a meeting with the legal affairs officers.

Saliyev and Mahathir sat opposite each other and said with a proud look: "Judge Holmes has agreed. He will personally invite Justice Van derwent and Sutherland to invite them to join Mahathir's law firm."

Mahathir was very excited, yes, very, very excited.

Are there any more crazy things than three Supreme Court justices who serve as senior advisers to Mahathir’s law firm?

Even if they are replaced by presidents and invite three presidents to serve as advisers at the same time, it would not make Mahathir so excited.

After all, any president will be closely protected after leaving office, prohibiting him from having any contact with politics, and they have already chosen their team and position before taking office as president.

Retired justices are different. They have no position, and their term of office is life-long and will only leave unless they die, voluntarily retire and impeachment of Congress.

This also means that they have handled countless cases during their long term and are considering them from the perspective of lawmakers.

As the ‘referees at the top of the American judicial pyramid,’ they will know more clearly what these people are thinking, what they will do, and what perspective to look at a problem.

Justice Holmes became a lawyer in 1866, and began serving as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States in 1902. Until his retirement in 1932, the law ran through his life.

Justice Van derwent served in the Supreme Court for 23 years, and Justice Sutherland served for more than 26 years.

The cases they passed by were based on a base of 100,000, but they couldn't buy them no matter how much they spent.

"It's time to finalize this matter, their workplace can be placed at home, we only need professional guidance and advice, as well as the connections in their hands,

The three judges are not young anymore, and there will be great risks in running back and forth."

Investment must be rewarded. They are all old men in their seventies. Li Zitao doesn't want to hear bad news before they can make use of their remaining energy.

Two justices, Holmes and Hugo, came forward to lobby Van derwent and Sutherland, which secretly caused a lot of discussion.

Changes in the Supreme Court's Justice have always been the top priority in the American judicial circle, and even Washington and Congress will be affected.

After all, the president has only been in office for four years, and a young justice can serve at least 30 to 40 years, affecting the ideological and judicial direction of the United States in all aspects.

The one who pays attention to this matter the most is President Roosevelt, who was slapped in the face by nine old men.

During his tenure, the Supreme Court successively "murred" all the pillar policies of his New Deal, breaking the New Deal into a joke.

Even the British on the other side of the ocean were publicly mocking him in newspapers, which made Roosevelt and his government lose face.

His term will end next year, and Roosevelt is sure to re-join the election, and he is also ready to "go to war" with the Supreme Court.

If it goes well, after he successfully runs for re-election next year, he will immediately declare war on the Supreme Court and submit his "Judicial Reform Plan" to Congress.

In fact, even if Li Zitao asked the two justices to leave the Supreme Court, Roosevelt wanted to carry out his "judicial reform."

The average age of the nine Supreme Justices is 71 years old, an "old man court" that no one can surpass in American history.

The elderly and weak and lack of energy made the Supreme Court's work more and more slow, the work piled up, and the incident of the Supreme Court falling asleep at an important meeting.

In Roosevelt's view, the Supreme Court is now like a bloated old man, and this situation should be changed immediately.

Besides, only 2 out of 9 people support him.

Even if Li Zitao invites Van derwent and Sutherland away, the conservatives will still have 5 votes, and the situation will still be unfavorable to Roosevelt.

To truly reform the United States, the obstacle of the Supreme Court must be resolved first. This is what Roosevelt thinks.

Although neither he nor Congress have the right to fire the justices, the number of justices is not constant.

In 1786, there were only 6 Supreme Court justices, and by 1800, it almost dropped to 5, and eventually the government and Congress abandoned this plan.

Then in the middle, it increased to 7 people, and when the 7th President Andrew Jackson was in power, it increased to 9 people today. During the American Civil War, there was a precedent to increase the number to 10.

The Supreme Court's ignorance made Roosevelt take his mind to the '10th' person. Since it can be increased from 6 to 9 to 10, then from 9 to 18, it sounds like there is no problem.

The news soon came back, and Justice Van derwent and Sutherland agreed to the invitation from Mahathir law firm to serve as senior consultant.

Perhaps there are still people in the nine who are unwilling to give up their power, but the two justices, Van derwent and Sutherland, have had enough of endless work.

The body, which is suffering from illness and the weakening energy, are the reasons why they are willing to retire.

If Roosevelt and Congress hadn't cut their retirement wages several times, they would have enjoyed their lives on the farm now.

"Roosevelt, congratulations." As soon as he received the news, Li Zitao called the White House.

Roosevelt sounded good and said he would find time to visit the castle, but he just took the matter between the Supreme Court and the Supreme Court.

That kind of behavior seemed to be a taboo, which made Li Zitao, who hung up the phone, think about it.
