      Shadow Chief Justice Thomas is going to do everything in his power to help Trump and the likely retire so Trump can seat a hand-picked mini-me.

      “Justice” is just a job title when it comes to Clarence Thomas.

    4. Antique-Echidna-1600 on

      “ethics lapses” is a nice way to say “overt corruption”.

      It’s almost like you can’t trust them to police themselves… 🤔

      SHOCKER.

      His Emotional Support Billionaires will of course keep him from facing any repercussions for being arguably the most corrupt Justice in U.S. history.

      Clarence Thomas has received way more blowjobs from interns and staffers than Bill Clinton — and without consent.

      You can’t have both the Supreme Court and President above the law you know. It would be a conflict of interest.

    17. AuroraBorrelioosi on

      Question for you Americans: do you think he would face any consequences if he accepted a cartoon moneybag labeled “bribes” in full daylight on the Supreme Court’s steps and smiled for the pictures? Because based on what I see from your media over there, I don’t think he would. 

    18. sbastroncoso on

      Corruption here, corruption there. USA system is surely going downhill

    19. UIWobbuffett on

      Thurgood Marshall is turning in his grave over the corruption of his replacement.

    21. Random_Hero2023 on

      What in the fuck I don’t understand there’s some guy who can’t afford a car/insurance gets a jaywalking ticket for crossing the road when it’s clear but this motherfucker gets to just be a flagrant bribe taking fuck and “aww geee, nothing we can do!”

    22. justmarkdying on

      In a million lifetimes I never expected to grow into in an adult in an America that is this blatantly, obviously, in-our- faces corrupt. The daily disillusionment I experience is fucking devastating. Something is going to break.

    23. ZeroHourBlock on

      SCOTUS is above the system of checks and balances our forefathers so painstakingly wrote into the constitution.

    24. SoundSageWisdom on

      Pathetic that they feel entitled to their tax free slush funds

    25. WheelyWheelyTired on

      BREAKING NEWS!: obviously corrupt justice system lets obvious corruption slide. More at eleven.

    26. freedomandbiscuits on

      He took millions in bribes from people with cases before the court. It’s that simple.

    27. McCool303 on

      Your honor I didn’t not mean to commit fraud. I simple had a lapse ethics. Yes officer that is my cocaine, but it was a simple lapse in ethics. Funny how the elite simply have lapses in ethics but the poor commit crimes.

    29. mces97 on

      You know, the next time we have a pandemic, and there’s a toilet paper run, just use the constitution. Cause it seems like that’s what the document has become.

      Checks and Balances are a joke. This period of time in the US will go down in history as “the dark days”.

    31. fzvw on

      > “Because the Judicial Conference does not superintend the Supreme Court and because any effort to grant the Conference such authority would raise serious constitutional questions, one would expect Congress at a minimum to state any such directive clearly. But no such express directive appears in this provision,” Conrad said.

      Oh yes thank you for such brave and thoughtful “restraint” in these trying times

    33. gramathy on

      Why did he need to be referred? Since when are obvious crimes not simply prosecuted?

    35. L2Sing on

      Make the referral, as a legislator with oversight authority, yourself. There is no need to trust the branch in suspicion to police itself.

    37. ShitStainWilly on

      Cry some more, Roberts. The judiciary is a joke, justice department is a joke, this whole country is a comedy special.

    40. _ficklelilpickle on

      “Doesn’t matter LOL” – essentially what’s being said here.
