Unlike other impeachable offices, SCOTUS judges serve for an unlimited term that is subject to an undefined “during good behavior” rule.
A future administration with sufficient votes to reform SCOTUS can and should take this to impose a meaningful code of conduct on judges that can boot them from the bench without needing the senate to go through a political process.
I would rather see them impeach Alito and Thomas for blatant corruption, but neither will ever happen, so
I agree completely, but the next best thing is making them irrelevant

Same as any other office holder. Impeach in the house, convict in the Senate.

Basically the same as presidents and other political officers iirc
Throw them in prison.
Making the system even larger is stupid. Make accountability instead.
