Chief Justice Roberts declines to meet with Democrats on court ethicswww.washingtonpost.com Democratic Sens. Dick Durbin and Sheldon Whitehouse proposed a meeting after reports of politically charged flags at the homes of Justice Samuel Alito.

You see, Roberts explained, we're completely fucking unaccountable.

Anyone who thinks that John Roberts isn’t also in the pocket of some billionaire(s) is incredibly naive. He is just better at hiding it and fooling journalists into thinking he’s not as corrupt as Thomas and Alito.

He is a racist and white supremacist, so protects the others.

Big surprise… c’mon Democrats let’s do what Rep Raskin suggests. Let’s not let this ride.

FDR never managed to constitutionally test this but enough justices bailed out that he got a New Deal majority court. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judicia...

Senate should cut funding for the SC until there is enforcement of an effective ethics code and Thomas/Alito resign.

they’re appointed for life and they can sidestep consequences why do we even elect a gvt

Forget where I heard it but it’s true that the court is by nature a reactionary arm of government. They can’t (or shouldn’t) make policy but they can cause policy to revert. Self-policing would be unprecedented. Senate needs to act according to its power. Only gotta impeach one.

Fuck these christofascists

Time to call these fucks on the carpet…they can be left to police themselves….

Kangaroo court

SCOTUS doesn't want to discuss ethics because they know that #SCOTUScorruption cannot continue under ethical restraints. They don't want any disruption of their gravy train.

Fucking weenie.

who gives a shit about flags, let's talk about Clarence's trips and cash.

Separation of powers in no way confers impunity.

The king can't be bothered with the peasantry.
