Justice Thomas’ rampant corruption & disregard for the judicial oath of office is shameful. At a time when public trust in SCOTUS is at an all time low, he must be held accountable.

It’s time for him to resign and for Congress to pass @RepHankJohnson SCOTUS code of ethics bill.

1000+ fewer Tory councillors, Reform Party zero councillors from 500 candidates, Britain First & UKIP wiped out.
Labour the largest party in local government, for first time in 20 yrs
The people have spoken & want a General Election now to get this country back on its feet again

Holy shit--the Tories have lost over 1,000 seats in local elections in the UK. Labour is now the largest party in local government.

This from the Wisconsin GOP speaker is rarely acknowledged after a result, that 'tough on crime' attacks don't work like clockwork like people just assume they do -- April 4 (with Wisconsin & Chicago) was an encapsulation of that. https://twitter.com/AJBayatpour/status/1654543271027253250

I am beseeching media outlets not to say that Senator Feinstein has spoken, or said something, when her office has simply issued a press release. It gives people an unproven, and likely mistaken, impression regarding Feinstein's actual ability to perform basic functions.

RT @RepRashida
Because Sen. Feinstein was absent, Republicans are passing legislation through the Senate, undermining the right of our residents to breathe clean air.

And with a far-right judiciary targeting our human rights, we are unable to confirm judges.

Sen. Feinstein must step down. https://twitter.com/RoKhanna/status/1651571775031980032

Ro Khanna on Twitter

“Because Senator Feinstein was absent, the Senate overturned a Biden rule that would cut pollution from heavy duty trucks and causes harm to people’s lungs. We are putting decorum over democracy and our values. It’s time for Senator Feinstein to step down gracefully.”

Nearly three months since getting shingles, is Feinstein so sick that she's incapable of fielding questions from press?

And WHY is her spokesperson declining to share her own name???

Despite renewed focus, scarce details on Sen. Feinstein's health

Little has been disclosed about Sen. Dianne Feinstein's prolonged absence, leaving her 40 million constituents in the dark about her health status.
