This Supreme Court is a tragedy to those that feel and a comedy to those who think. Or maybe just gallows humour as the Constitution is led to the hangman.
I don’t think even they have the nerve to rule in diaper Donnies favor. They are just playing the delay and stall game. Thomas shouldn’t be allowed to participate. His wife was a big part of the insurrection. If that’s not a conflict of interest, nothing is.
The democrats have been trying to “lynch” Clarence Thomas ever since his confirmation hearings when Joe Biden (who didn’t want his kids to go to school in a “racial jungle”) was chairman of the House Judiciary Committee because they’re all racists. You know, the party of Jefferson Davis and the Confederacy, Jim Crow Laws, slavery, racial segregation, and the only party with a congressional member who held the position of Exalted Cyclops of the KKK (R Byrd). But the liberal media and Democrat party have done a great job of brushing that all of those facts under the rug.
Sparky1000 has the right idea; if you really want to reply to the right-wing troll and his nonsense (yes, a long, long time ago the racists and white supremacists were mostly Democrats, but they all moved to the Republican party decades ago), then do it in a separate comment. Don’t let him get the featured comment.
The problem with recusals, especially at the supreme court level, is that they depend on the integrity of the justice in question. No integrity, no recusal.
The supreme court is, without question, corrupt. But if every american just gets out and VOTES, you can… do absolutely nothing about it. You’re #$%&ed. Capitalism sucks.
Did Ruben go easy on him? Didn’t even get to his announced blue-balls lust to reverse Griswold and other precedent that told the government no, you don’t get to outlaw sex that can’t make a baby, give rapists more rights than their victims, or keep adults from marrying whomever they want. Today’s GOP: getting government out of the marketplace, and into your bedroom and doctor’s office!
There is no exaggeration here. All the “bids” are gifts real-life Clarence Thomas accepted from people with matters before the Supreme Court. And his wife, Ginni Thomas, was one of the organizers of the January 6 insurrection Yet Thomas has not recused himself.
Clarence Thomas is by far the most corrupt Justice I think this Court has ever had. He’s a disgrace and should take up John Oliver’s offer and resign. Oh yeah right that would be another bribe
SCROTUS ethics violations from the Orange Ogre’s nominations? Yet more innovative Reptilican norm-breaking — do everything wrong and do it right out in the open for all to see.
All MAGA-enthusiasts might as well wear hats and tee-shirts with the logo “I DARE YOU TO CALL ME ON IT!”
The US really needs to follow the lead of more democratic countries and stop politicizing its judicial system. Currently it is the only so-called democracy to elect judges and appoint others based on what political party they below to.
Bush v Gore, Citizens United and the past year … SCOTUS joins Congress & the Executive Branch being viewed with contempt by most of the nation, and the news as not reliable either. Pretty soon time to turn out the lights

With Citizens United, the Supreme Court made it legal to bribe Congress. And now we know why: Because they wanted it to be legal to bribe judges.
