Facts of the Roberts "fishy' adoption of two Irish children. Truthfully, "baby laundering " is more despicable than the greed of Thomas and Gorsich, whose corruption isn't surprising -- his mother was Ann Gorsich.

I agree plus not sure what PP is referring to as international Adoptions were not only legal but relatively common U.S. parents adopted one foreign-born child for every 200 births in 2000. https://www.prb.org › resources › i... International Adoption Rate in U.S. Doubled in the 1990s | PRB |
He broke Irish adoption laws. Breaking the law as a judge is not a good look. I wonder why they couldn't adopt through normal channels? |
This. And, it appears that the Politico story is a BS one by someone who does not understand an LLC. |
Leftists need to run to the other end of the cruise ship now where another cause awaits ![]() |
His wife wanted white , Irish children.! Adoption should be you take what is available irrespective of race. All international adoption should be illegal. |
Let’s just say that this “Ed Whelan” - “Edward Whelan is a Distinguished Senior Fellow of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and holds EPPC's Antonin Scalia Chair in Constitutional Studies.” - is obviously a bad judge of character. Republicans on the subject of Republicans are not to be trusted; they have shown that when it comes to judging their own they will enforce no ethics whatsoever. |
I’m DP and we adopted internationally in 2000. I think 2000 was the pinnacle year of international adoptions in the U.S. I researched extensively back then and you could not adopt from Ireland back then unless the child was a relative. Certainly I’m no expert though. I would have loved to adopt from Ireland as we are 3/4 Irish. There were two Irish families we met in Russia who said it was difficult to impossible for them to adopt there. This is the first I’ve heard about the Robert’s adoption. Sounds fishy but maybe they are biologically related. I think his land sale is fishy AF. We can’t continue to have ethically compromised people on the Supreme Court. |
It looks like the wording by Politico was off inferring to the sale of the LLC vs the sale of the property. But that doesn't mean people don't get to criticize him for it. If Sotomayer did the exact same thing I would criticize her for it, disclosure form or no. Also, the guy who wrote that thread is way too wordy but it it still isn't clear who he sold his share in the LLC to- did they liquidate it or did he sell it to another member? If the former then the technicality is more thin- the money was only in the LLC because of the sale of the property. The point of the form is to "follow the money" and the money came from a lawyer whose firm has business before the court. It isn't like there are any consequences to him not disclosing- the only thing Americans can do it side-eye him. The fact that he may have technically filled out the form correctly doesn't mean that he is in the right here, it means that the form should be changed. |

If you are so desperate to adopt why go overseas whether are thousands of children this country who needs a loving and stable home? The facts of the Roberts illegal adoption are in a link on page three of this thread. |
The Irish mother was flown to South America to give birth where the babies could be adopted by Americans or other non-Irish residents. This apparently is something that is done but is expensive and exclusive. Who paid for it? |
Correction. The Roberts kids are not twins. They were born 4 months apart. The birth mothers separately chose them. Supposedly both were born in Ireland but adopted in South America. That is questionable. |
It amazes me how the left is working so hard to get rid of one of the justices they don't agree with so they can have another stab at putting another Justice on the bench.
Stacking the court didn't work out for them..... time to try a new tactic. Go after Kavanaugh. FAIL (even an attempted assasination) Turn to ACB. NO GO Go after Thomas. DIDN'T WORK Turn to Gorsuch. And, work on Roberts at the same time. Looks like it's Alito's turn next. |
