SCOTUS justices without corporate interests could easily feel relieved from conflicts of interest.

Time to institute a code of conduct for the Supreme Court.

"Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito together own shares in 19 companies that could see combined tax relief of more than $30 billion if the court issues a broad ruling in the Moore v. United States tax case and strikes down a one-time corporate tax imposed in 2017."

Justices Have Financial Interest In Major Tax Case

John Roberts and Samuel Alito own shares of companies that could score billions in tax relief from the outcome of Moore v. United States.

@ArenaCops I’m all for the Code of Conduct applying to the Justices just like it already does with all other federal judges. Still waiting for anyone…..ANYONE!!!!!… to give me a reasonable answer as to who we trust with enforcing that Code of Conduct against and thereby holding valuable sway over….<checks notes>….1/3 OF THE POWER OF THE ENTIRE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT while maintaining proper checks and balances along with public accountability. I’ll wait.

@opethminded 😎 To be instituted #SCOTUS_OIG #SCOTUSInspectorGeneral, following the long-established example of other government agencies/ departments / authorities.
We'll certainly agree, that an ethics-monitoring & -enforcing authority is needed to put an end to potentially corrupt activities like those reported on concerning Thomas, Roberts, Alito et al.

@ArenaCops Great. Who determines who gets the seat and what oversight is there over that position?

@opethminded My preference would be ABA, to kind of preserve the separation of powers.
And creating an oversight institution to oversee the oversight office would create an endless bureaucratic monster.

Independently choose the appropriate independent overseers & Thomas-like excessive corruption should soon be history — after bringing corrupt justices to justice.😉
