There’s no need for Democrats to pass legislation stating that it’s unethical for a Supreme Court Justice to accept anything of value from someone who has business before the Court, or to rule on any matter involving someone who has given you something of value. That’s already unethical.

Democrats must demand the resignation of any Justice* who has done that.

*As of now: Alito, Gorsuch, and Thomas. https://mstdn.social/@murshedz/110589037202525816

Looks like- not surprisingly - it wasn't just fishing in Alaska for Sam Alito. "According to CNN, Notre Dame’s Religious Liberty Initiative paid for Alito's trip to Rome shortly after he authored the opinion that overturned five decades of precedent on abortion rights established by Roe v. Wade." #scotus https://www.rawstory.com/justice-samuel-alito/

@JamesGleick

Biden really, really, REALLY does not want to expand the court.

So here is another way to fix the problem without expanding the court — hound the corrupt justices into leaving on their own. Yet each new report of black-hearted corruption is met with less and less of a response from Democrats. The reagan years taught them learned helplessness, and that's the only thing they know.

Biden doesn't support expanding the Supreme Court, White House says

The president said the high court "has made some terrible decisions."

@JamesGleick it's already the law. Democrats are weak
@JamesGleick
1. "demand" doesn't mean anything.
2. Arw we sure no non-crazy hasn't accepted *anything*?

@JamesGleick James the only thing keeping these corrupt Justices in place is the Democrats inability to fight; they learned to stay down.

Poor America.
