Adam Serwer: Alito lied about the reason the flag was up because he didn’t know the couple had text messages establishing the date of when the incident took place. They were supporting the insurrection. www.nytimes.com/2024/05/28/u...

From this to his abortion perjury to his leaking both the Hobby Lobby and Dobbs decisions.. I mean, take it away, Larry Jon.

I will tell you this, Chief Justice Roberts: If you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find your spine that is missing

I can't help him find his spine. But I can tell him that his balls are in a Mason jar under Mrs. Alito's sink.

he does have a spine; he’s using it to protect Thomas and Alito, whom he likes and agrees with

The unfortunately truth is that Chief Justice Roberts not doing anything is proof that his spine is holding just fine. He's not scared of Alito, etc. He wants to support them.

This is the only explanation for why Stop-the-SteAlito is allowed to write any decisions. Roberts concurred with the most recent gutting of the VRA which Alito wrote the decision on. Roberts is just as red pilled.

Way too late, they all need to be disbarred

You don't have to be a lawyer to be on USSC, so while I suppose disbarment would be emotionally satisfying, that's all it'd be. (There are no actual qualifications for the job - if a time traveling infant French antipope got confirmed, he'd be a Justice.) www.thoughtco.com/what-are-the...

What Are the Requirements to Become a Supreme Court Justice?www.thoughtco.com The Constitution does not include a specific set of experience or education: but the confirmation process that exists today has created one.

Understood but it’s one real legal consequence that does pertain even to this court where they see fit to oversee their own (lack of ) ethics — it’s absurd what they get away with when even they are supposed to avoid even the appearance of impropriety instead of hanging impropriety flags

Can you do from jail? I was curious

If you can get a president to nominate you and enough Senate votes, sure. The only people who can remove a Justice for bad behavior, such as "literally being held incommunicado in ADX Florence, and therefore unable to attend any sessions", would be the same Senators who voted on the confirmation!

Can we start a gofundme?

he has his spine just fine, he told Dick Durbin to shove it up his ass and die. He just likes what Alito does.

Does the Chief Justice even have the power to force a recusal?

Well, he can say it should happen, so yes, basically

What I'm reading says it doesn't matter what Roberts says or does. Only Alito can recuse himself and Alito can simply reject that his impartiality has been reasonably questioned.

Well, what if Roberts questions it? Bit awkward, isn’t it?

Dems should be calling for not just his recusal from certain cases but for his *resignation* from the court…but ah well, I guess that’s “divisive”

Yes!!! Dick Durbin seems like a decent person, but damn it, he needs to do his job!

Yeah, he’ll shake your hand and take your vote. Then he’ll turn around and uphold Senate “niceties” that aren’t law & allow MAGAs to stop Biden’s judicial nominees. He will be in office as long as he wants. He doesn’t need to listen to voters like me that don’t have $ to donate.

Ok… Durbin is an institutionalist who likes being a senator. Anything that changes his status in the eyes of other institutionalists is not something Durbin is willing to do Durbin loves being a DC elite more than the country, constitution, or his duty to it

Spot on my friend.

Appreciate that and you

A US Supreme Court Justice lied. And that’s not invalidating? lol @chrislhayes.bsky.social

"A Justice should respect and comply with the law and act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the integrity and impartiality of the judiciary."

lol.

"lol" --Samuel Alito

"should" 👍 lots of legal weight behind that word lol

Alito did not comply with this standard

“Make me” - Republican justices

Or else what?

"Good behaviour" and whatnot..

"There are some differences" Good ol' NYT passive voice. Yeah the real version had multiple pieces of collaborating evidence and Alito version didn't.... Hmmm

Flags were flown. Mistakes were made.

Look, if the flag has been flown like that on the other side of the planet it'd have been the right way up!

Who are you going to trust? Justice Alito, or the foundational principle of causality that underpins all of physics?

Interestingly, physics still works regardless of the direction of the flow of time

T-symmetry - Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org

Don't clue conservatives in on this, they're already trying to turn back the clock...

Woke physics amirite?

*holds hand up to ear* "I'm currently getting reports that Mrs. Alito is yelling from her kitchen window about an 'Einstein-Rosen bridge'..."

Oh no are they going to rip a hole in the space time continuum with the density of their narcissistic idiocy?

in this case only, we going to use evidence provided by THE POLICE lolol

Corroborated by the police. It wasn’t the only evidence.

boy, it would be great to live in a country where we had any recourse to deal with an insurrectionist on the supreme court

or like four of them

“What the fuck is a timestamp?” -Alito probably

Good for the neighbors.

Also right wingers don't fully understand linear time. Can't get into it but they don't.
