Conservative Supreme Court corruption
SCOTUS brought Citizens United which allows dark and foreign monies, Pacs, and corrupt elections; 80 school shootings in 2023 because Scalia likes guns and convinced his fellow gun-happy compatriats that the founders were thinking of guns much as he does; and of course reversing Roe and Wade because government needs to be involved with women's uteruses... and any other brief funneled their way via the Federalist Soxiety and Leonard Leo. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/sep/04/leonard-leo-federalist-society-conservative-abortion

Clarence Thomas Broke the Law. Why Is He Not Being Prosecuted?
Indeed! And why would I add more when someone writes this well on the topic and cites the law while doing so? https://www.thenation.com/article/society/clarence-thomas-supreme-court-gifts-felony/
Michael Popok of Legal AF discusses the Washington Post reporting that Thomas hired a young woman who used to work for his wife’s MAGA extreme PAC, used to live with the Thomas’, and has used anti-Black and Arab slurs on her social media. The implications for the future are also outlined.
UPDATE 4
U.S. Supreme Court of asses will decide if Trump can be prosecuted for election interference.
Having not yet decided whether tRUMP is above the law, they have taken up tRUMP's claim that president's have absolute immunity.
Justices to hear arguments in late April - decision likely to come no later than end of June
Reminder...
tRUMP owns them... and SCOTUS is obviously working for only him and not the US.
This is what should happen...
That is a big win for tRUMP as can delay the freaking case into next year... and as tRUMP plans to steal the next election as he has decided he must...being he can't win votes legally... then will pardon himself, declare himself king and set about to dismantle the government and country until it suits resembles the shambles and shithole of Putin's dreams. (Think this is hyperbole? Go read about his revenge tour and the 900 pages of project 2025)
tRUMP is taking a victory lap already in his Lie Social posts...
UPDATE 3
Dissecting Trump's desperate SCOTUS plea to give him immunity for his crimes - or at least a delay
Dems need 67+ seats in the US Senate to impeach the Supreme Court Justices
@Pat Rice wrote a very brief synopsis on how to rid of some meddlesome bums in cloaks. It should be more difficult to put them in... and easier to get them out. With the Federalists calling the shots on who is on the nomination list, as well as having Leonard Leo introduce them to their rich handlers/benefactors, it makes it imperative to stop the gaming of what is supposed to be an esteemed bench and highest arbitors of the law.
(As well as one of the so called pillars of goverment... that is supposed to assure that shit tRUMP's crimes are called crimes and are punished - not happen NOT faciltate them! UGH!) https://www.sorryantivaxxer.com/forum/general-discussion/dems-need-67-seats-in-the-us-senate-to-impeach-the-supreme-court-justices
Some lawyers just love criming presidents. 2019, Donald Trump's lawyer claiming a president cannot even be investigated, let alone prosecuted, for committing a crime while in office, even if he murdered someone in public.
UPDATE 2
House Democrats ask Clarence Thomas to recuse from Supreme Court review of Colorado ballot
Billionaire Gifts To Thomas: Generosity Or Taxable Income?
If billionaires’ largesse was designed to keep the justice on the high court, experts say the money could be considered a taxable payment. [Or a freaking bribe, FFS!] https://www.levernews.com/billionaire-gifts-to-thomas-generosity-or-taxable-income/

UPDATE 1
Clarence Thomas’ Private Complaints About Money Sparked Fears He Would Resign
The "poor" baby knew he would never become the gazillionnaire of his dreams as a judge, and was heavily in debt, so sought sympathy for his plight from those who were filthy rich...and there are documents:
What a piece of shit... as are his support network and Leonard Leo.
As someone who has never been in debt and bought their first home at 23, back when woman were considered a credit risk and forget about mortgage loans to a single woman (Ugh, how sad I had to be a pioneer activist to get rights men have always had) ... I would like to know how banks loaned 100k to Thomas, on top of a 514k mortgage... after putting down only 8k... without a cosigner... or, shall we say, one of his "benefactors."
The 90's: high mortgage rates, a recession...the S&L Crisis, and giving huge loans to people already in debt ...
