There's no reason DeSantis should be in weekly contact with Justice Thomas. Time for Thomas to retire. [/twitter]https://twitter.com/JaneMayerNYer/status/1489650866772754436[twitter] |
If we’ve learned nothing from the Trump era, it’s that ethics rules shouldn’t be voluntary. We shouldn’t be dependent on the morality of public office holders to disclose these issues because we have people like Trump and Thomas holding those offices who don’t feel they are subject to these rules. |
+1 We learned from the GOP in the Trumpen years how many thing we sort of assumed were rules or laws were just custom, and custom easily discarded by those without scruples. |

| The GOP justices look worse with each passing revelation. |

More publications are jumping on the story. Thomas needs to retire.
"Clarence and Ginni Thomas, the Supreme Court’s Unethical “It” Couple -How the Thomases have been able to get away with their decades long abuse of influence." https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/ginni-clarence-thomas/ |
+1 Amoral POSs. All of them. |
+1 Hold them accountable. |
He really needs to go. He and his equally ethically challenged wife can go profit enormously somewhere else. |
If that empty skull John Roberts actually cared about how his name will go down in history, he’d get his court under control. Three illegitimate justices, plus the ethically challenged Thomas? Bad news. |
He should be deeply embarrassed. He has three Trump stooges. |
He seems to have an edge of panic; I think he’s fully aware of the legacy he’ll leave. |

This was an excellent and very long article. One of the reporters has three Pulitzers. 90% of you won't bother to read it but it's chilling how many irons she has in the RWNJ fire. She sure is caught up in anti choice zealotry for someone who never bothered to have kids. Clarence needs to retire. He's corrupt and should have recused himself numerous times. He was allowed to revise years old sworn financal statements to reflect $700k in income from organizations with business before the Supreme Court. If The Court wants to regain the faith of the American people they should clean themselves up. |
