Supreme Court Announces Ethics Code for Justices

[BidenPresident]

The Supreme Court announced on Monday that it had issued an ethics code for the justices after a series of revelations about undisclosed property deals and gifts intensified pressure on the court to adopt one.

In a statement by the court, the justices said they had adopted the code of conduct “to set out succinctly and gather in one place the ethics rules and principles that guide the conduct of the members of the court.”

“For the most part these rules and principles are not new,” the court said, adding that “the absence of a code, however, has led in recent years to the misunderstanding that the justices of this court, unlike all other jurists in this country, regard themselves as unrestricted by any ethics rules.”

The absence of an ethics code “has led in recent years to the misunderstanding that the Justices of this Court, unlike all other jurists in this country, regard themselves as unrestricted by any ethics rules,” said the statement signed by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and his eight colleagues. “To dispel this misunderstanding, we are issuing this Code, which largely represents a codification of principles that we have long regarded as governing our conduct.”

Interesting.
What's the difference between ignoring implied rules and ignoring codified rules?

I personally don't give a fuck about this goody two shoes shit.

I don't begrudge SCOTUS a few perks.,

I abhor the shitting decisions coming from the pachy-appointed justices.

People are so easily distracted from what matters,
largely on the basis of petty jealousy.

Exactly what I was thinking. Big deal - the justices are accountable to no one.

Congress.

No way will a GOP congress convict a conservative justice.

Anyway. They're not accountable to congress. I think the only way you can sanction a SCOTUS justice is to impeach, then convict. And to convict you need a huge majority in the Senate. Can you picture any GOP senator voting to convict Thomas - for example? Not gonna happen.

Nobody, the “code” is voluntary.

That’s great, now who’s going to monitor and enforce the code?

No one, sadly.

It is a code being enforced by the honor system, other than MSM finding and outing future bad behaviour and illegality again.

I expect the code provides for that......they generally do......

It does not.
