Congress sets ethical standards for the entire judicial structure — except the Supremes.
And now Republican Alito and the rest of the Republican justices claim that Congress has no Constitutional right to legislate ethical standards for the court.
Because they don’t need any. Things like appearing and speaking at Republican fund raisers are perfectly ethical and demonstrate the impartiality of Republican justices.

[Part 2]
SLAPPY: Oh, so the name of the band is Yes.
SKIPPY: No, Aunt Slappy, Yes is not even at this concert.
SLAPPY: Then who is on stage?
SKIPPY: Yes.
SLAPPY: Who is?
SKIPPY: Yes.
SLAPPY: That’s just what I said, Yes is on stage.
SKIPPY: No, Yes is not here. Who is on stage.
SLAPPY: Whaddya askin’ me for?
SKIPPY: I’m not!
SLAPPY: Wait, let’s try this again. Do you see the band on stage?
SKIPPY: No I don’t see The Band, that’s a different group entirely.
SLAPPY: On stage, Skippy. Look, see the band?
SKIPPY: No I don’t.
SLAPPY: Get rid of those John Lennon glasses and look! There, there’s the band!
SKIPPY: No, that’s not The Band. The Band is performing later on. Who’s on stage.
SLAPPY: You tell me.
SKIPPY: Who.
SLAPPY: The name of the group on stage.
SKIPPY: Who.
SLAPPY: The name of the group!
SKIPPY: Who.
SLAPPY: The group on stage!
SKIPPY: Who.
SLAPPY: The band!
SKIPPY: No, The Band is performing later. Right now, we’re listening to Who.
SLAPPY: That’s what I wanna know!!
And when I was Googling, I found a cute ending (Not Animaniacs):
SLAPPY: This is for the birds!
SKIPPY: Oh, no, the Byrds broke up years ago! ☺

“right” is a synonym for “correct”.
