Clarence Thomas hearing Trump's immunity case, when his wife Ginni was directly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election, tells you everything you need to know about the Supreme Court's new code of "ethics."

It's a sham.

This is an openly and proudly corrupt court. It's not just Thomas. Reminiscent of Scalia's chin swipe.

As the Germans found out, the courts are the last bastion of democracy.

We are totally screwed.

@rbreich "Appearance of corruption" and "corrupt intent" look to be the next victims in the SCOTUS campaign to define corruption so narrowly that it never applies

@rbreich SCOTUS is a fraud, with maga members who conspired in insurrection.

On the other hand recused himself, wouldn’t it appear to be an admission that his wife was involved? 🤷

People have been born and lived for decades and fucking died in the time that smirking predator of law and decency has been allowed to dictate the paths of our lives.

@rbreich @rbreich There is nothing supreme about the Roberts court, you're correct its a sham.

I would directly question with Republican tactics by saying exactly that..

"Mr Thomas, since your wife is guilty of being involved with tRump to illegally overturn the 2020 election, why do feel you do not need to recuse yourself from this case?"

@rbreich given no political friction, what would it take to change the law so that thomas can be dismissed for ethics violations?

A democracy?

Or a ?

I think the latter. Perhaps wealth inevitably produces aristocracies.

We MUST remove at least 3 illegitimately installed justices. Investigate, indict, convict, remove. They are not above the law. We decide what happens, but we need a trifecta to do it!! Please VOTE BLUE everyone.

@rbreich but if trump gets immunity then Biden gets immediate immunity to do as he pleases, no matter what it is..
