GOP SCJ's truly believe they're above the law, & possibly 'chosen by God': Justice Alito tells the WSJ that Congress has no business policing SCOTUS. "I know this is a con­tro­ver­sial view, but I’m will­ing to say it... No pro­vi­sion in the Con­sti­tu­tion gives them the au­thor­ity to reg­u­late the Supreme Court—pe­riod." wsj.com/articles/samuel-alito-

For SCJ Justice Thomas' 25th anniversary of his confirmation in 2016: flurry of positive PR, opinion articles... defending him & railing against a film recounting Hill's harassment appeared in news outlets -penned by a DC lawyer who'd worked in the GHW Bush WH +Websites celebrating his career +attacking his onetime accuser -popped up *of course - financed with at least $1.8M from conservative nonprofit groups steered by the judicial activist L Leo. washingtonpost.com/investigati

Now there's confirmation that SCJ Thomas was gifted a SUPERBOWL💍, his visions of grandeur & quest for wealth & influence have been achieved (through unabashed bribes): According to the Times, has flown on Jones’s private jet, attended training camp practices, & when the team played in Washington sat in Jones’s private suite. The article also states bluntly and matter-of-factly that Jones gave Thomas a Super Bowl ring. nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballt

: Public universities have seen visits by justices as opps.to generate donations -putting justices in the room with influential donors, incl. some whose IDUs: had interests before the SC. SCJs from both parties have lent: prestige of their positions to partisan activity, headlining speaking events with prominent politicians, or advanced their own personal interests...🚨 *GOP SCJs, esp. Thomas, were involved in more "high stakes" events -peddling influence. events:apnews.com/article/supreme-cou

Merely criticizing the SC’s result is misguided & unproductive-the task is to expose the SC’s disintegration as a legit. judicial body -note its emergence as a supreme RW policymaker *operates on an ends-justify-the-means basis, shreds legal doctrine & dishonestly presents the fact. Term limits, jurisdiction stripping, court expansion & ethics reform should be on the table -we must dedicate ourselves to robust & authentic democracy. washingtonpost.com/opinions/20

They're coming for YOU: America’s ship of civil rights progress is taking in a lot of water at the moment. It will continue to do so as long as anti-Blackness remains a part of this country’s DNA. The White men in charge of this country can and will come for White women, too. They’ve already begun with the fall of R v W. Hope y’all are learning to swim, bc you’re making it hard for the rest of us to come save y’all. washingtonpost.com/opinions/20

SCJ Alito joins Thomas, who's also been compromised by a wealthy donor. Years of tainted decisions have harmed Americans: "Justice Samuel Alito Took Luxury Fishing Vacation With GOP Billionaire Who Later Had Cases Before the Court." propublica.org/article/samuel-
