With all of the corruption and ethics issues being surfaced as it relates to the Supreme Court, it seems like a consolidated threat might be in order.

I was saddened to read about Robert’s wife.
Just sad. |
Everyone knew Roberts’ wife was doing this - at the time it was actually preferred to her former job which was as an attorney at one of the firms which has a ton of business before the court. I’m liberal AF and all over all of the other SCOTUS corruption threads but I’m not sure this is a BFD. She should be able to work somewhere. |
She is grifting law firms that have business before the court for placement of attorneys. This is egregious. |
That's a lot of money being taken from clients with business before the courts |
Ok but not doing this type of corrupt nonsense. |
If Roberts was a regular federal employee whose wife had a consultancy that took $10 million from law firms who practiced before him, he'd get fired |
I know!! Let’s impeach all but the democrats and fill the entire SC with democrats because that’s the goal here. I don’t think y’all know how transparent and gullible you all are. |
Can we get a rundown of what all the supremes spouses/SO and immediate family members do? |
Point out the ethics lapses and corruption of "left" justices and we can talk. |
DP. OK.

Please. I can actually predict the next ‘scandal’. Same sources, same BS. |
The charges against thomas aren’t BS. Because you’re a wing nut, you get to essentially wish them away, but they’re real. |
Ok, so given Robert's lax ethics enforcement, what do you propose? Personally, I would like to see ethics standards at least as strict as the Federal Court system, and possibly moreso. How rto enforce? Senate Judiciary in tandem with DOJ? I am not sure, but what we have now is a travesty. |
Lets see. The above are disclosures to the tune of a few thousand dollars. Not good obviously. Should have been disclosed. But are reimbursements for expenses incurred to travel to give speeches or talks. In contrast, Thomas received gifts (ie, free luxury travel for vacation, etc) to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dollars. And Gini was overpaid for decades by supporters of Thomas. Q whether Gorusch was overpaid for his CO property. The story on Jane Roberts is surprising. If true, very sad. $10M over 7 years is $1.4M per year as a headhunter. Nice gig. Yes. she was in a real dilemma when her husband joined the court. |
