Even with their crystal clear conflict of interest in this case, neither the $4 million man Clarence Thomas, nor jet hopping Alito, recused themselves.

Pretty convenient that the Supreme Court can make its crimes magically go away, no?

7 in 10 think Supreme Court justices prioritize ideology: AP poll

As the U.S. Supreme Court is expected to rule on a major case involving former President Donald Trump, 7 in 10 Americans think its justices are more likely to shape the law to fit their own ideology, rather than serving as neutral arbiters of government authority. That's according to a new poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research. It found that less than one-third of U.S. adults think the justices are more likely to provide an independent check on other branches of government by being fair and impartial. Confidence in the Supreme Court remains low. Rank-and-file Republicans as well aren’t giving the justices a ringing endorsement.
