SCOTUS looks and acts like a den of thieves. They make the Mos Eisley Cantina look decent. One way to regain any credibility is for the entire SCOTUS to be suspended and all their judgements stayed till the DOJ completes a full investigation on every sitting SCOTUS judge for corruption.

At this point, the DOJ can investigate, find evidence for 1,000 separate instances of Thomas taking bribes from Russia, and he’ll still be sitting on the bench unless the GQP decides that the laws of the land are more important than their team. Don’t hold your breath.
