The New York Times @nytimes.com · 03/12/2024A New York Times examination found that behind the scenes, as the Supreme Court justices wrote their own code of conduct, they were split on a fundamental point: whether the new rules should — or could — be enforced. nyti.ms/3OCp9PZ 4827362
D @inventive.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Negotiating rules they never intended to follow is just fucking around and wasting time. It’s only slightly better than standing on the courthouse steps and mooning the American public. 000
Msbryte @mrsbryte.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Of course they don't want any enforcement. THEY think THEY are above the law. That's why it's so easy for them to give Trump a pass on anything he wants to do. The founding fathers are turning over in their graves. 000
Aalavbri @aalavbri.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Some judges in the Supreme Court need to get out, because anyone who supports a convicted felon is a threat to our democracy 020

dschopp.bsky.social @dschopp.bsky.social · 03/12/2024This Court required serious reform. A functional congress could accomplish this but we have not had a functional Congress in a long time 000
martymishkin.bsky.social @martymishkin.bsky.social · 03/12/2024It’s becoming too difficult to keep track of all those officials in government that are above the law. 000
talentedripley.bsky.social @talentedripley.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Such absolute nonsense. SCOTUS is wildly corrupt and no they’ll fix nothing. They think bribes are good. Especially if they conflict with cases before them. 000
MarieJo @mariejo1965.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Something feels wrong in this title :… ah yes …. I got it … in the same sentence Supreme Court and Ethics ? 😬 000
Inspector Lestrade @sherlockandwatson.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Sorry. Wrong. It’s wrong. If FBI can arrest members of congress for bribery, criminal violations, crossing branches of government Executive - Legislative, then FBI/DOJ should be able to arrest SCJ Thomas & Alito for bribery and criminal violations, Executive - Judicial. No one is above the law! 120
oldmater.bsky.social @oldmater.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Such a disappointing state of affairs. Our rule of law was once the envy of the world. This Court has singlehandedly caused a loss of faith in the process. Someday legislation will be enacted to restore the integrity of the Court. Taking money out of the process is only the first step. 000
Antonio Monteiro 🇵🇸 Persona Non Grata @antoniosampa.bsky.social · 03/12/2024No one who defends an unethical system can be ethical. A system that spreads hatred and destruction throughout the world like the US is not an ethical system. 010

Martha near Seattle, 8647 @marthawt.bsky.social · 04/12/2024I can’t wait for the SC rogues (SCROTUS) to change libel/defamation/free speech standards so as to further cover up and discourage reporting on their dubious ethics. 000
meroni1.bsky.social @meroni1.bsky.social · 03/12/2024They have no oversight. Self regulating body. Available to highest bidder. 020
rjplunkett.bsky.social @rjplunkett.bsky.social · 03/12/2024No one judges the judges. It is the single most powerful body in our government, yet operates with zero oversight. Sad. 000

grumpyoldmanstill.bsky.social @grumpyoldmanstill.bsky.social · 04/12/2024Journalism. The Fourth Estate. Dead. And gone. Articles like this prove that is true. It ain't news if it ain't news my news desk editor used to say. This ain't news. FFS 000
Mary C. (Cathy) Wright @cathysoozwright.bsky.social · 03/12/2024I believe they should be transparent. Deciding for themselves is not working for many-especially women. They’ve rolled back Voting Rights Act, Affirmative Action, Roe v Wade and so many others of precedent. 000
CrabbyOldCow @agingwitch.bsky.social · 03/12/2024My kid who works for the government rigorously follows ethics rules—she doesn’t accept so much as a lunch. I’m appalled at SCOTUS. I trust them less than Trump, and that’s going some. 010
JoJo @jojodafox.bsky.social · 03/12/2024I don't believe the SC has had peoples best interest in mind for many yrs. Pretty easy to so how the select group has their own agenda and its not for the people it's for themselves. 000
Linda Martin @fairgo.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Indeed, performance management alludes them, even when law is clear 000
ClaudiaM @claudiam280.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Supremes should be able to be checked by Congress just like they can check them. Bi-partisan. Ethics driven people. Foxes cannot watch hen houses. 000
The Cassandra Files (I told you so) @triedtowarnyou.bsky.social · 03/12/2024Well constitutional law rules that. They ARE subject to enforcement by Congress. They don't get to choose. If MAGAts or Democrats had any spine or ethics (MAGA in particular) they would VICIOUSLY enforce strict ethics rules. Three strikes, you are UNSEATED. Period. 021
My_viewfromhere @myview24.bsky.social · 03/12/2024The majority of the #SCOTUS is already corrupt. I have no faith in them. I would love to see judges taking money from anyone be removed and not allowed to practice law or be involved in anyway. 000
