  1. Waste of breath until judicial immunity is no longer.

  2. Now the demonrats are going after the supreme court as well as president Trump! Anything that does not fit their agenda they will attack! It's time for them to be obsoleted completely! No demonrats!🚫

  3. Partisan Hacks slowly being found wanting!

  4. He is dishonest. A crook in robes.

  5. Code of ethics = Codified federal legal statutes with stiff minimum penalties enforceable by fines, prosecution and/or impeachment. SCOTUS should be held to a much higher standard. Right now they are just a kangaroo court with 6 unethical, dishonorable political hacks playing god.

  6. Alito = 🎣🛩️🛳️🏖️👙💸💰 for 🗳️🗳️🗳️🤮

  7. Impeach Alito, put in term limits, expand and regulate these criminals. Congress on vacation as usual.

  8. Go fishing, get in trouble.
    Smoke crack and buy guns, no problem.
    😂

  9. Code of ethics. They’re not gods

  10. If the insurrection isn’t successful, I don’t know what is. They won and winning. Tired of it yet?

  11. It seems the Supreme Court is bought

  12. Oooopsie! Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg got a private tour of Israel in 2018 that was paid for by an Israeli billionaire, Morris Kahn, who has had business before the court. Many other justices have taken questionable trips over the years, including weeklong trips paid for by big universities and law schools, some of which were not fully disclosed on their annual reports.

  13. …an old white man taking away abortion rights. .. and now the chickens come home to roost.

    he thinks he's above the law …I hope that there's more from propublica to come…
    😊

  14. Judges shouldn't be allowed to accept gifts of any kind, also if the court allowed stuff like this at the time, that still doesn't excuse him for not recusing himself when Paul Singer's lawsuits came before the court. There was more than 1 case btw. Apparently Singer has had about ten cases in front of the Supreme Court. The one they're talking about is huge because Argentina was forced to pay him 2.4 billion.

  15. If Thomas does not face any consequences, why even talk about bribes? Bribing the supreme court of the USA is fine, at least legally. You might face a little snubbing from the press, but other than that, you're good.

    If Alito in his capacity as SCOTUS judges that he's doing well, who is to say otherwise? There is a sense of finality in the word 'supreme'.

    BRA would be a better acronym for A.

  16. Supreme court built on open corruption. Another example of the foundations of American democracy.

  17. What a surprise ! NOT !!! Just more Republican-biased, criminal human trash🗑️

  18. MPEACH…remove…Same for Thomas

  19. Boy there’s a lot of crooked people out there.

  20. just another corrupt conservative justice, no different from a typical Republican

  21. So it’s OK for the deranged Biden to take his cheating drug addict son to foreign countries to make illegal anti-America deals to get rich, but could you imagine if this has been President Trump and his son think about that?‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

  22. Alito did not violate any supreme court ethics rules because the supreme court has no ethics rules. They are for sale to the highest bidders, the famous FREE SPEECH from the Citizens United case. Bribery is not a crime in the US as long as its given to members of the executive, legislative or judicial branches of government. Justice Thomas must be grinning like a possum sitting on a pile of garbage since Alito draw the attention away from him.

  23. Yeah, but what about Hunter? Oh, that's been settled? Um, well…what about, I don't know, what about the Dems think unoccupied seats should not be occupied!!!!!!!

  24. The Inferior Court is showing it's true colors.

  25. Impeach Alito and Thomas! SCOTUS is compromised and corrupted by GOP Mega Donors.

  26. Paul Singer, the man who provided the free trip is a Federalist Society member. That tells you all you need to know. These people hobnob with each other while they plot the destruction of democracy while enriching themselves. Six of the Supreme Court Justices are current or former members of the Federalist Society – I'm guessing you can name them all.

  27. Well, well, well another Supreme Court Justice that was bought.

  28. Alito needs to be forced to resign. He’s demonstrated that he voted in favor of his billionaire friends interest. Crooked. Unethical. And he’s made decisions that were clearly bought. Not fit to serve. The Supreme Court needs to face punishment like any other branch of government.

  29. JUSTICES Samuel Alito and Clearance Thomas should be cellmates 😜
