Still not a word from John Roberts about Clarence Thomas, who has previously proclaimed he cares about the Supreme Court’s reputation.
@StevenBeschloss A potted plant has more integrity than this federalist fascist.

@StevenBeschloss don't hold your breath.

The Roberts legacy is soon reaching its nadir.

It didn't need to be this way, but he spoke when he should have been silent, and remains silent when he should speak out. No one to blame but himself and his ideological brethren.

@StevenBeschloss I thought he was already on record as saying he doesn't have to respond to criticisms. Because he knows he doesn't have to. We have absolutely no leverage to force him to do anything. It's a cancer we've allowed to fester for far too long. It may be too late to cure it without the kind of massive public outcry that we suck at organizing.

@StevenBeschloss

Talk about wasted potential - Roberts himself.

Citizens United was a terrible mistake, he'll never recover. Clarence is making things much worse.

@StevenBeschloss

It’s a can of worms in that many of the Justices are probably exposed, and Roberts knows it, so instead it’s gonna be Professional Courtesy and leave it for someone else.

@StevenBeschloss Still not a word about Clarence Thomas from John Roberts, who has previously proclaimed he cares about the Supreme Court’s reputation.
@StevenBeschloss Not _that_ reputation 🤣
@cpurdy @StevenBeschloss leaks seem to him more troubling than bribery
@lathamgreen @StevenBeschloss Right. Outright corruption among friends is one thing, but leaks that can be blamed on anyone but the party responsible for the leak? That's another thing entirely.
@StevenBeschloss likely trying to figure out how to cover his own very privileged behind
@StevenBeschloss I’d like to know what Robert’s knew about the Thomas ethics lapse and when did he know it.

@StevenBeschloss Nobody believes Chief Corrupt Justice John Roberts cares about anything but the power to force his Christo-fascist court's far right laws on America.

Welcome to Gilead.

@StevenBeschloss There won't be. Remember Roberts wife made quite the sum according to a recent story. They think themselves above the law.
