Wonder why no criminal charges have been filed against Thomas or is billionaire friends?

There are currently no ethics regulations pertaining to the Supreme Court and no outside authority with the power to enforce any. They’re bound only by their own consciences, integrity, and sense of propriety. That’s the problem.

Have crimes been committed?

The justices adopted an ethics code in November, though it lacks a means of enforcement. The code treats travel, food and lodging as expenses rather than gifts, for which monetary values must be reported. Justices aren’t required to attach a value to expenses.

In March, the federal judiciary began requiring judges to disclose travel-related gifts and their values — rather than reporting such gifts as reimbursements. The justices say they generally abide by the same rules, but Thomas did not disclose the cost of the Bali hotel.

Some Democratic lawmakers are continuing to press legislation that would require the court to adopt a binding code of conduct and provide for investigations of alleged violations. But the prospect for such legislation is considered remote in a closely divided Congress.

Is this actually as nonsensical as it seems as written? Do I need more coffee?

The far-right SCOTUS crazies are doing a lot of damage. They need to be stopped. Their trying to make the government inoperable and doing things that clearly our founders never intended. No President is above the law and chevron was necessary. These guys are just rotten to the core.

Did I miss something new? They essentially declared Trump king a few weeks ago.

If anyone has any doubt how the supreme Court will rule where it comes to voter fairness or putting their thumb on the scales for Trump and MAGAs, the allowance of the removal of valid voters from the rolls a week before the election is ....deplorable.

Yep. We can't survive having another 4 years of Trump appointing SCOTUS justices. It will kill the nation for good.

No matter how awful the Roberts court is - and that man is going to be dragged through the mud for all eternity, rightfully so - it never fails to surprise me how insanely corrupt the right wingers are.

I’m sure it is upsetting that federal voting law be followed by judges and states for those who want to override it in the courts to service their own political ideology. If we’ve learned anything in this election cycle, it’s that the ends justify the means in the Democratic Party.

The GOP are the ones subverting free and fair elections and trying to suppress votes.

But you know that.

It’s against federal law for noncitizens to vote. Ask any naturalized citizen.
