ICYMI:

Justice 's staff urged schools & libraries to buy her memoir or kid's books

The Associated Press

It’s not the $300k vacations Thomas or Alito took, but it’s still not just unacceptable, but also an easy call. You have a publisher, a publicist, they handle the publicity for your books, not your staff.

Just as we need tax-payer funded US presidential , we equally need term limits in the (and congress, yes)

Justice 's staff urged schools and libraries to buy her memoir or kid's books

Keep in mind, Sotomayor is known as being one of the court justices who is looking out for "the people," but is no doubt just as intoxicated with as presidential candidates hawking their books.

@npr_bot All Justices should adhere to ethics rules regardless of their political leanings. should be ashamed of herself. Why are these people so obsessed with wealth?

J. 's powerful dissent explains past cases should have controlled - we've seen discriminatory businesses try to sub 'services' for 'people' before. "Heart of Atlanta Motel could have argued that Black people may still rent rooms for their white friends. [], like Ollie McClung, who would serve Black people take-out but not table service, discriminates against people by offering them a limited menu. This is plain to see, for all who do not look the other way."

Sonia delivered a passionate to the court’s majority. Sotomayor decried the decision protecting rights of a web designer to refuse to create websites for the weddings of couples.

Sotomayor called it a “sad day in American constitutional law & in the lives of LGBT people.”

Slate - The Supreme Court Just Bulldozed Affirmative Action—With Two Bizarre Loopholes

by in :

"[I]n a direct response to the incandescent dissents by Sotomayor and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, Roberts’ opinion leaves some room for admissions officers to undertake what might be called a 'holistic review' of each applicant, including their racial identity as it relates to their life experiences. A 'holistic review,' however, was already required by the precedents that Roberts effectively overturned on Thursday. Thus, the decision substitutes one vague regime with an even more ambiguous one—inviting, as Sotomayor noted, 'a plethora of litigation” that will “promote chaos' rather than establishing a workable new order."

@sonyasteele Sure seems the end will be that any action by , or not, that causes economic "concern", will be judged illegal and employees will be held liable for "repaying" employers due to such actions.

I'm deeply disappointed in , especially. I hope she's not caught the "They're going to let me be white" syndrome too many suffer from (e.g. , ).

Kudos and strength to for delivering a correct and moral opinion.

Even if did anything wrong (along with Gorsuch btw, who similarly did not recuse from cases involving the book publisher), they both disclosed the earnings from their books. Clarence Thomas has a literal flood of undisclosed financial contributions from his "friend."

Raw Story - Celebrating 19 Years of Independent Journalism - Clarence Thomas' court colleagues called out for letting him slide

«"If , and truly believe that it is only the that has the ability to govern itself, then they need to be more forceful in putting that self-regulation into practice. They need to be willing to tell if, as it appears from the outside, there is no effective way for that to happen. And they need to be willing to speak out about whether they believe violated the that they have now signed onto."»
