This, and a lot more like it, for as long as those easily bought conservative justices remain on the bench. It still blows my mind that SCOTUS justices aren’t beholden to the same “gifts and bribes” laws that apply to the rest of judges. They get their own, much looser rules.
Edit: This piece by John Oliver is a great watch on the subject for those who haven’t seen it.
They get their own, much looser rules.
They have rules? I thought all they got were “suggestions”
Technically, they can’t accept gifts over $250, but that doesn’t cover meals, travel, lodging, etc…
Neat, Thomas’s RV is travel and lodging.
Oh, Clarence Thomas gets away with a lot more than that.
Glad it was her. The Democratic party should repeat this like Giuliani’s “Noun, Verb, 9/11”. Every chance they get into any microphone they see. Donald Trump did this and every republican was his willing ally.
Yep. EVERY Republican just wanted to “own the libs” if they were not already a true believer of the forced-birther agenda already.
And now they definitely must be made to own this.
This is a great approach. Keep it very simple and keep repeating it. Not everything needs policy wonks to break out the spreadsheets and that kind of thing is not great marketing anyway.
