By withholding a ruling on Trump v. United States, the Supreme Court's far-right justices are effectively giving Trump the immunity he's seeking, making it all but impossible for him to face trial before the election for his efforts to overturn the election and his role in Jan 6.

75% of voters support a binding ethics code for the Supreme Court.

They're tired of justices receiving millions of dollars in gifts from political donors, some of whom have cases before the court.

So why did Senate Republicans block a SCOTUS ethics bill yesterday?

Hello?

@rbreich Probably because republicans don’t act against their own political operatives in the court. All six of them.

@arstechnica Awesome. That way if they secede (they really can’t) he’d lose all the federal subsidies and contracts. In effect, not-Twitter would be his only source of income.
