Who's more dangerous, a SCOTUS justice who's for sale to the highest bidder or a SCOTUS justice who's a true believer in Christian Nationalism?

You guys are normally really good on white collar crime, but I fear too much trust has been put in the people who are in charge of the branches of the state, and there’s a bit of corruption in the state of Denmark, sorry, The District of Columbia.
In the UK, he’d have been out the door.
The problem: that a justice gets to say whether she/he is impartial. Studies show that we feel better to know someone’s disclosed a connection that could cause bias—but the disclosure doesn’t eliminate bias. People can’t be objective about themselves, and the danger is that we pretend they can be.
If you vote for Biden for no other reason it should be to prevent assholes like this piece of shit and Alito from getting replaced by younger versions of themselves next term. SCOTUS is the only thing making new constitutional law these days. It's way more important that most people appreciate.
This, in my opinion, criminal. At the very least, it is a violation of ethics. The U.S. House of Representatives has the Constitutional responsibility to impeach on these grounds. Why has this not happened.
