Agreed, it's rather revealing. We both know that had these justices been named Breyer, Sotomayor, or Brown-Jackson, the Republican in Congress would be having a shitfit and lining up to vote for a code of conduct.
If anyone needed any further evidence of how politicized the court has become -- by at least one party -- here it is. Who in their right mind would vote against transparency and ethical behavior? That's right: politicians protecting political appointees.
