WTH Is Going On?! Chris Berrie's avatar

I applaud Jamie Raskin for calling this out. However, if the past is a predictor of the future, it won’t do any good. It’s highly evident that the radical right-wing Supremes are untouchable. They obviously believe that’s true, as demonstrated by their repeated, frequent disregard of ethical standards that are the normal and minimum expectation for all judges.

Raskin is strong, direct and totally right

I stand firm with Jamie Raskin- and boy, he is a Congressman for whom I have the upmost respect! Alito has continued to thumb his nose at the Constitution, at the rules of the judiciary, at the American people- and I find it rich that the Chief Justice has tried to push the distrust of the Supreme Court on us instead of on their behavior!

Ofcourse he should recuse. It’s a no-brainer. Unless his immorality is completely solidified.

He and others on the SC should that are in drumpf's back pocket absolutely must recuse themselves✌🏻💙

Justice Alito has been on the SC for a long time. It is stunning to me that he would ignore

what has been a requirement of the justices from the getgo. They are unreachable - good

heavens - even by the assistance of an 'associate' on a matter currently sitting at the SC. I'm an old woman and truly shocked that this could and did happen. Perhaps I'm too naive. I hope not. Past Eighty

Nix all Six. They’re illegitimate. They lied under oath. They took bribes. They participated in an insurrection. They attempted rape. They are America’s bastard court.

Raskin is on the money, Alito should absolutely recuse himself. Will he? I doubt it. Just disgusting.

Alito and Thomas should be impeached as soon as the Democrats get Congress back. And if he steps doen before...charged with crimes.

Yes. So Trump. Asking dip for a reference. 😂

It is about time someone stand up for the rule of law. It is disgusting to witness trump continuously push on the parameters. And this supreme court continuously helps him do it. We, the people will not give up our democracy, no matter how disgustingly trump and his brown coats try to help him.

Our elected senators and congressmen must bring to light every incident of corruption! We need to know and see the weasels in the henhouse! Thank you, Mr. Raskin!! 👏👏

I totally agree, but I would also include Thomas

Alito is a judicial thug of the first order. He will not recuse because he is in the pocket of donnie dead bodies. SCOTUS is now Supreme Corruptus Of The US. Alito should be impeached if that is even possible.

Does anyone think Alito will listen?
