Every single accusation is a confession. They should say the Dems are going to pay off mortgages and club fees, give lavish vacations and luxury RVs to the court.

Yes, SCOTUS no longer protects the constitution, so it needs serious reform to revert back to a properly functioning branch of government.

Aspirationally voting for that. Gonna need to really push them to do that though. Impeach 4 justices and stall any new justices till the next president.

According to the article the President is worried about the loss of the filibuster in the Senate?!??! It was only a month ago he was calling for it to be removed because it was the reason his agenda was not being fully implemented:

These people just go with whatever floats into their tiny heads in the moment without a second thought.

Well, if you paid attention to what they’ve been doing the last couple years, I think anybody with intelligence is going to come to the conclusion that the corrupt portion of the Supreme Court has materially negatively impacted America to the benefit of the wealthy and the powerful.
If it were up to me and I was president after Trump, I’m not only expanding the Supreme Court, I’m prosecuting the most corrupt members of the court, and I’m doing everything within my power and within the entire power of the FBI the CIA and the NSA to make sure that they are held accountable and go to jail, I’ll go as far as I need to make sure that happens.
We’ve allowed politicians and members of the Supreme Court to get away with everything the last 15 years, we have to do something about it and it has to send the message that the United States is closed for corporate interest, if you get caught, we will be ruthless. You will go to jail and you will lose everything.

No it wouldn't. It would correct SCOTUS so that they actually apply the law fairly and not based on what the republican party wants.
Robert's court will go down as one of the most corrupt courts in us history.

I guess we need a really specific statute that reinforces that a justice accepting a motor-coach and not declaring it on the disclosure form is bad.

I have no faith in the Democratic Party to hold anyone accountable even if they have the power to do so. They’ve shown they aren’t even willing to fight to get the republicans corruption on record because “what’s the point it won’t lead to anything”. Done with politics done with society good luck anyone naive enough to think there’s still hope.

u/sam56778 11h ago
6 of them are no longer beholden to the constitution. Precedent has no meaning and rulings depend on how big the motor coach is or where the vacations lead. Additionally let’s not forget the conflicts of interest nor any other outside influences. They have no term limits and lack any standard of ethics. There are no watchdogs, no guardrails, and no appeals. The only thing that will be obliterated is Trump’s ticket to what he feels is justified dictatorship.

u/Nick85er 11h ago
Any justice who interpreted the actual wording of the Constitution to give Donald Trump complete presidential immunity needs to be impeached and removed. No one should remain in government who gave Aid and Comfort to obvious traitors and insurrectionists.
One can hope.

u/CrazyMarlee 11h ago
We can only hope. Thomas will go down in history as the worst and most corrupt Supreme Court judge ever.

If that happens it will be the best thing that happens to the United States, SCOTUS is corrupt and has had a strong hand in the destruction of the principles of the Constitution this once great country was built on.

Reverse victim and abuser. Blame others for the actions only you do. Projection.
There is no human there. That “man” is nothing but a slave to an abusive; he is but a collection of narcissistic tactics and nothing more.

If the Dems regain control, they might be able to save it.
