How do you tell an honest supreme court justice?
They stay bought.

It does seem like this court is originalist or consequentialist depending on whose ox is being gored.

Clarence Thomas should go back to being silent:
Quote:FAIRHOPE, Ala. (AP) — Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas told attendees at a judicial conference Friday that he and his wife have faced “nastiness” and “lies” over the last several years and decried Washington, D.C., as a “hideous place.”
Thomas spoke at a conference attended by judges, attorneys and other court personnel in the 11th Circuit Judicial Conference, which hears federal cases from Alabama, Florida and Georgia. He made the comments pushing back on his critics in response to a question about working in a world that seems meanspirited.
“I think there’s challenges to that. We’re in a world and we — certainly my wife and I the last two or three years it’s been — just the nastiness and the lies, it’s just incredible,” Thomas said.
“But you have some choices. You don’t get to prevent people from doing horrible things or saying horrible things. But one you have to understand and accept the fact that they can’t change you unless you permit that,” Thomas said.
Gee, I wonder why they're all being meanies? Oh yeah, I almost forgot --
Quote:Thomas has faced criticisms that he took accepted luxury trips from a GOP donor without reporting them. Thomas last year maintained that he didn’t have to report the trips paid for by one of “our dearest friends.” His wife, conservative activist Ginni Thomas has faced criticism for using her Facebook page to amplify unsubstantiated claims of corruption by President Joe Biden, a Democrat.
If you can't stand the heat, stop being such a goddamned crook.

Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Every time this thread rolls around, I read it as "The Scrotum Chronicles".

And every time I read the word "Scrotum", I imagine this Mr. Show sketch:
