@realTuckFrumper Mike Johnson no longer has his Confederacy (has been defeated), but is still on his own crusade against the Fourteenth (Reconstruction) Amendment, which Louisiana & the other ex-Confederate states had to ratify to regain representation in Congress.
SCOTUS's 1965 decision in Griswold v. Connecticut (use of contraceptives) was based on the Fourteenth Amendment.

P.S.: Leonard Leo's protégé Johnson is either intellectually unable or unwilling to tell contraception from abortion.

@trainman Citizens United is certainly not only proof of utterly fucked-up judicial independence, but also a compromised Separation of State & Corporations' power.

Every justice, who approved Citizens United & still overpopulates the Supreme Court, that is John Roberts, Samuel Alito & Clarence Thomas, deserves to be thoroughly investigated, prosecuted & tried, to be brought to justice.

@BrennanCenter No one is above the law. Including Supreme Court justices!

@BrennanCenter Leonard Leo & his Federalist Society have turned the Supreme Court into an anti-liberal, corrupt & subversive court, tp the disadvantage of the thought of
"We the People", perverting "certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

@Catawu Time the "third-most important man in America" (quote Clarence Thomas), a private, Federalist-Society leading & directing individual is vastly getting talked about & officially investigated for subverting U.S. judiciary, juggling $billions of dark money from reactionary donors, interest groups & clerical agents eager to turn back time & people's liberties.

@opethminded My preference would be ABA, to kind of preserve the separation of powers.
And creating an oversight institution to oversee the oversight office would create an endless bureaucratic monster.

Independently choose the appropriate independent overseers & Thomas-like excessive corruption should soon be history — after bringing corrupt justices to justice.

@opethminded To be instituted #SCOTUS_OIG #SCOTUSInspectorGeneral, following the long-established example of other government agencies/ departments / authorities.
We'll certainly agree, that an ethics-monitoring & -enforcing authority is needed to put an end to potentially corrupt activities like those reported on concerning Thomas, Roberts, Alito et al.

@Free_Press And the gun-industry- & Kremlin-friendly interpretation of the Second Amendment will again be responsible for expectable gun deaths.

Greetngs from the Federalist Society.

@waningestrogen @NewsDesk Thankfully Bob Menendez is not a Clarence Thomas, who seems to have always been thinking he were above the laws & divinely elevated above any ethical obligations!

For Bob Menendez there are defenses.

No wonder Clarence once ("jokingly") called Leonard "Richelieu" Leo the *third-most important man in the U.S.*.
The man most harmful to the American judiciary & Americans' human & civil rights.

"From those early discussions among Leo, Thomas and Crow would spring a billion-dollar force that has helped remake the judiciary and overturn longstanding legal precedents on abortion, affirmative action and many other issues. It funded legal scholars to devise theories to challenge liberal precedents, helped to elect state attorneys general willing to apply those theories and launched lavish campaigns for conservative judicial nominees who would cite those theories in their rulings from the bench."

@persagen That's for sure gonna put a fat smile on Elon's face!

All corrupt Federalist-Society SCOTUS-implants do need to recuse.

That means all six of them!

Every SCOTUS justice, who opposes a Code of Conduct, an Office of Inspector General for SCOTUS, term limits & expansion of SCOTUS's number of justices is underqualified to have a seat on SCOTUS's bench & should either go by her-/himself or be impeached by the people & their congressional representation.

@ZhiZhu What Confedered senator Tom Davis apparently meant to say:
“At some point in time, the right of the white state to see the unborn white child born does take precedent over the white woman’s right to her body.”

Now, as we all may know the former slaveholder states always had their militant issues with the Reconstruction Amendments to the United States Constitution.

Nonetheless, quite some time ago the then not FedSocuted Supreme Court of the United States held in its 7-2 ruling, that
"State criminal abortion laws... violate the Due Process Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment, which protects against state action the right to privacy, including a woman's qualified right to terminate her pregnancy."
And neither SCOTUS nor single (or conspiring, insurrectionary) states can invalidate the Due Process Clause, the Fourteenth Amendment or the human right of women to bodily self-determination, for the racist sake of white "Volksgemeinschaft".
