“Supreme Court on ethics issues: Not broken, no fix needed”

archives said:
That’s exactly what Roberts claims, then again, he also has been questioned about his wife’s profiting on recommending lawyers

Fact remains that Supreme Court is a cesspool of ethical scandals right now and they’re overwhelmingly about misconduct

Unless of course you thought the court was "liberal".

This says it all, Anchovies, no need to expand on this, “WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is speaking with one voice in response to recent criticism of the justices’ ethical practices: No need to fix what isn’t broken."

There is no need for me to expand on this either, Anchovies...or you.

A “leftist” pointing out the reality, do you really need a refresher of the ethical questions raised in Thomas, Roberts, Scalia, and Gorsuch’s behavior

You just proved my point. You're channeling your inner Verua Salt.

Nothing

The SCOTUS was designed purposely by the Founders and previously viewed by most to be nonpartisan, to be the one branch that rose above politics, other two are based upon politics, the Roberts Court is ruining the image and purpose of the Court
 
Upon further reflection, I will expand with this:

What is the oath of office for the Supreme Court justices?
“I, _________, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as _________ under the Constitution and laws of the United States."

The three female justices have ignored the Constitution with almost every ruling that they have ever made.

Coming from a guy whose own conduct is under question, like the Fox saying there is nothing wrong with the security of the chicken coop

Another one who needs a refresher in the facts (https://www.forbes.com/sites/alison...p-in-as-senate-hears-case-for-code-of-ethics/)

The left ruined the court when it made the judges views on abortion the litmus test for approval to the court. If trump is never re-elected he was the right guy at the right time.

You know their lost when they have to turn to the whataboutisms, and by the way, none of those female Judges’ conduct has come under question and you can guarantee Fox and like have had their very best investigating them

And if you perceived this as a "liberal" court you wouldn't be saying a word. Do you really think everyone is as stupid as a leftist?

I would say that the Supremes (sic) won this round, Anchovies.

“The justices’ response on Tuesday struck some critics and ethics experts as tone deaf at a time of heightened attention on the justices’ travel and private business transactions”

“Charles Geyh, an Indiana University law professor and legal ethics expert, said everything the justices detailed Tuesday evening about ethics was essentially outlined in Chief Justice John Roberts’ annual year-end report from 2011, more than a decade ago.”

“They’re basically saying ... What we’ve been doing is just fine.”

“Thomas has for more than two decades accepted luxury trips nearly every year from Republican megadonor Harlan Crow. Gorsuch sold property which he disclosed the sale but omitted that the property was purchased by a person whose firm frequently has cases before the high court. Roberts’ wife raised ethical concerns that she was paid large sums for placing lawyers at firms that appear before the court.”

“The justices seem to be utterly clueless about the problem they have ... They’re in a bubble apparently. They don’t see what a big problem they have”

Every Court in the US, from local to Federal, has a defined code of conduct with an authority to monitor complaints except the Supreme Court, they supposedly consider themselves above everyone else. They appear totally unconnected with the people who are effected by their decisions, which explains some of the flat out stupid comments some of them make

They are a separate branch, but they are also part of the Federal Gov’t, and as I noted, the only entity within that Government, and even their own branch, without an enforceable code of ethics

Since the Republicans intentionally stacked the court with extreme WHITE WING EXTREMIST ACTIVISTS- LOOKS LIKE THE ONLY FIX NOW IS PLACING TERM LIMITS ON SUPREME COURT JUSTICES.

And since the Republican Justices only seem to serve the Presidents that selected them- 4 years should be the new Term Limit!

No more self-perpetuating self-serving assholes for life.

Yet no left leaning Court, nor any Supreme Court I can recall, left or right, ever came under question for the ethical conduct of their Justices, and I am not alone, the opinion of the Court under Rogers has hit a historical low
 
The left had no qualms about accepting the UN-Constitutional Roe ruling but now are whining about the Constitutional Dobbs ruling.
