*that we know of
How are we supposed to function as a society when our highest unelected authorities are this corrupt? Absolutely disgusting.
It’s worth repeating _ad infinitum_ (or at least until some sort of revolutionary change fixes things):
[“Jimmy Carter: U.S. Is an ‘Oligarchy With Unlimited Political Bribery’”](https://www.rollingstone.com/politics/politics-news/jimmy-carter-u-s-is-an-oligarchy-with-unlimited-political-bribery-63262/)
An honest person wouldn’t accept any gifts for performing their service to their country. As for supreme justices they should be deported for accepting bribes
These are bribes. They should be called bribes. The Roberts Court takes bribes.
No wonder they don’t want reform.
Imagine if we had an enforceable ethics code instead of them being essentially gods.
Roberts court: Political THUGS in robes.
Why the fuck so they get gifts? I work for a state government out in the heat if summer and I’m not allowed to even have a glass of water if someone should offer it.
This is such absolute bullshit.
Can please we leave my boi Ken Burns out of it?
Why they gotta use that pic for the article?
Here I’m limited to 25 bucks at my job… I shoulda been a seditionist 🤷♂️
This is only what is known. I don’t even want to think about all of the “gifts” that are as yet unknown.
We can’t even accept tips at my job but these entitled pieces of shit can get millions in “gifts.”Absolutely ridiculous.
Edit: Clarence Thomas should be removed from the bench, there’s no way he can be impartial after receiving over 4 million in “gifts.”
How the F is any of this legal?!?!?
How much went to conservative justices?
***Everything*** is for sale in the United States, *everything*… Money is *all* that matters.
Thank goodness the Supreme Court will
Investigate themselves and decide that bribes are fees speech and/or freedom of religion or second amendment
Researchers were surprised the number was so low. “Look these guys decide billion dollar cases, I’m shocked it’s so little, they should have some pride. Well, except Clarence, he’s the champ”, said a staffer who declined to be named because they value their life.
/s
4 million alone is for one judge. You can guess which one….
Not gifts. Bribes.
They misspelled “bribes”
What are we supposed to do? The highest court in the country is corrupted and actively working to install a dictatorship.
What. Do. We. Do?
This Supreme Court trades American lives for money. They knew women would die because of their abortion ruling. They traded those women’s lives for bribe money. They’re murdering Americans for cash.
Wow, as public servants they sure do get some sweet perks. /s
Well, time for impeachment
That’s how roe v Wade got overturned when the majority of Americans want to leave it the way it was.
Justice Roberts refused to have this conversation when the facts are staring him in the face. He could have been a man of integrity instead of the coward.
Not defending it, but is it any different from the millions of dollars elected officials in Congress receive from lobbying efforts? The whole system needs to be torn down.
If I lived in DC I’d be throwing paint buckets of diarrhea at their houses every day. We can’t count on the legal system or the politicians: time to break out the pies and piss-filled supersoakers and dog turds
These donors are also sponsoring Project 2025 that these judges will have to most likely have to adjudicate on its constitutionality. You would have to be a fkn idiot not to think that all of Project 2025, has been gone over by these corrupt judges in order to finalize the sale of America.
They’re spelling bribes weird…
I’m a federal contractor. Want to know what happens if I accept “gifts” of any significant value, including anything more than a cheap McDonald’s lunch? I get investigated and likely fired.
The Supreme Court is supposed to be the most impartial, unbiased, neutral authority in our entire nation. Instead they’re a bunch of corrupt shitweasels doing things that would get any common-level federal employee tossed in jail.
Yet nothing will be done about it.
‘Gifts’ I love our media 🤦🏻♂️
Kavanaugh got his gifts *before* his nomination. Weird how his home and debts were suddenly paid. That’s why that wet fart only shows 100.
When I was in the Army doing supply and logistics, we couldn’t even accept PENS or COFFEE CUPS from vendors. But these guys can have someone buy them a house???
And my job would fire me on the spot for accepting ANY amount of cash from a vendor or company that we do business with, as it would compromise the company’s integrity.
