      That's why that kind of behavior is called corrupt. When a Supreme Court Justice owes gratitude to a donor, the donor has a right to demand that his direction is to be followed. The Supreme Court Justices had been obligated to decline "gifts" in order to remain neutral. When they chose to accept gifts and then take direction from their donors, that is when they broke the law.

    I disagree that it is only two "Justices" that are out of control with their ethics. With the exception of KBJ, every Justice has been taking sweetheart deals for speechmaking or book deals or law schools or other such. Yes, Alito and Thomas are out of control, but because Roberts actively works against accountability, he is 100% complicit to Alito's and Thomas's corruption.

I predicted that the supreme court would become the way it is today when Mitch McConnell single handedly blocked Merrick Garland for almost a year and then rushed through Amy Coney Barrett just 8 days before the presidential election. We need to keep the Senate, otherwise, Senate Republicans will not allow confirmation votes on any judges nominated by Kamala Harris.

    Nope, it appears they like the fact they can accept bribes. Now that they will no longer have any respect, they should be disbanded.

    There should be a Constitutional Amendment to establish a fourth branch of government - The Inspector General. This organization would be responsible for monitoring the ethics of all other brackets. They should have the power to investigate and prosecute. Their most important tool would be compulsory tax audits of all senior members of the government! POTUS, VPOTUS, Congress members, and any member of any branch required to be confirmed by the Senate. This would include all judges, generals and heads of independent agencies, like USPS, FDA, EPA, etc.
