Justice for Hire - SCOTUS

[Seran]

What is really funny about the Faux Nudes article is it states in the first few paragraphs that Justices Gorsuch and Thomas have failed to report large, compromising transactions or gifts. Meanwhile the cited Democrats all publicly disclosed their positions. I can totally see why the GOP blocked new legislation to enforce financial disclosures on the Supreme Court, their nominees are all proven to be corrupt or rapists.

So, it's not that they received the item(s), it's that they didn't disclose them that has you this distraught and upset?

If Justice Thomas had disclosed them according to the law, you would find no fault with it?

I don't think the court should be allowed to accept donations OR gifts from anyone other than family and friends, and should have to disclose those donations and gifts.

Maybe I'm being pigheaded, but I believe transparency is the ONLY right path for ANYONE in politics. And that includes Ronald McDonald...err I mean Donald Trump.

I agree.

So, what are your feelings about the Biden Family Business and individual stock trades by members of Congress?

I think they should have to disclose EVERYTHING, no matter how damning.

Personally, I think Biden should be impeached for his dealings with China (giving our oil to an enemy? for shame), and his son needs to go to prison.

But...at least Biden hasnt grabbed anyone by the pussy or anything, so I guess hes not TOO repugnant. I liked what Trump did, overall, but I just used to think (and still do), that he needs to learn to shut his fucking mouth, because everytime he talks he shoves his foot farther down his throat.

Biden's dealings with China is the least of his problems.

And what does Hunter need to be imprisoned for?

He hasn't?

Ever hear of Tara Reade?

Besides... I think most people that work for Joe are too old for his taste....

The US was better off under Trump than under Biden.

I mean, what heterosexual man who's actually had sex has not grabbed one?

This is why Jefferson was far superior to Adams. Adams still believed in the notion of an incorruptible class of men. Jefferson understood, no matter what type of government, government ultimately ends in tyranny that has to be cleansed from time to time.

Holy shit. Here's another smoking gun, this time $80,000 paid to Justice Thomas's wife Ginni in what appears to be a pay for play scheme to get Justice Thomas to give special attention to the group's amicus brief in support of a matter where Thomas wound up being a deciding justice ruling in favor.

Judicial activist directed fees to Clarence Thomas’s wife, urged ‘no mention of Ginni’

Conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo arranged for the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to be paid tens of thousands of dollars for consulting work just over a decade ago, specifying that her name be left off billing paperwork, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post.

In January 2012, Leo instructed the GOP pollster Kellyanne Conway to bill a nonprofit group he advises and use that money to pay Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the documents show. The same year, the nonprofit, the Judicial Education Project, filed a brief to the Supreme Court in a landmark voting rights case.

Leo, a key figure in a network of nonprofits that has worked to support the nominations of conservative judges, told Conway that he wanted her to “give” Ginni Thomas “another $25K,” the documents show. He emphasized that the paperwork should have “No mention of Ginni, of course.”

Conway’s firm, the Polling Company, sent the Judicial Education Project a $25,000 bill that day. Per Leo’s instructions, it listed the purpose as “Supplement for Constitution Polling and Opinion Consulting,” the documents show.

In all, according to the documents, the Polling Company paid Thomas’s firm, Liberty Consulting, $80,000 between June 2011 and June 2012, and it expected to pay $20,000 more before the end of 2012. The documents reviewed by The Post do not indicate the precise nature of any work Thomas did for the Judicial Education Project or the Polling Company.

And Seran is going to continue to ignore all the other justices getting payments. The only thing that matters is removing a conservative black man.

A true blue Democrat straight out of the 1800's.
