Quit beating around the bush. What did Alito give Singer in return for favors he gave him?

A vote in his favor on every tax matter where Singer had an interest, when Alito should have recused himself.

And how did the rest of the Justices vote? Do you think the cases before them had no merit?

Alito Took Unreported Luxury Trip With GOP Donor Paul Singer — ProPublica.

this is a good read.

Yeah, fantasy is often a fun genre.

This is part of the latte

This is an absolutely serious argument about the absence of reporting requirements and ethics. You want to dismiss it to protect corrupt activist judges whose opinions you like.

Even with the toothless new requirements the court adopted this year, how can you justify Justice Thomas not recusing on J6 cases. Oh yeah, it was his wife’s fault. But not a word form Thomas about whether it was appropriate or whether it raises doubts regarding his neutrality.

I believe RBG’s disaparaging remarks about Trump in 2016 were equally inappropriate. But she took responsibility, acknowledge the error and apologized. Funny how that sort of taking of personal responsibility seems to elude activist conservative judges.

No she didn’t. She admitted that she should not have voiced her private opinion publicly. In other words, she was sorry that she exposed her bias.

That was for something she said, not something her spouse said. Nor did she say she would recuse herself from anything involving Trump.

He has said it was his wife’s action. Was he blind to how it would look to have that display at his house? I doubt you think Samuel Alito is that stupid.

As to RGB, can you name a case involving Trump that she should have recused from?

Are you a misogynist? Do you control everything your wife does? What makes you think Alito even knew she did it until this hit the news?

This discussion has made one aspect of this perfectly clear. This country IS in distress.

I guess if Alito made an apology for the flag on his lawn, you’d be fine with that too.

Of course not … The damage has been done. From this day forward Alito is a known shill for Trump. He needs to resign (so Biden can appoint Obama in his place.)

I think when our SC justices get gifts from people they should report it.

Too bad you aren’t who makes the rules, huh.

Further, he claims he did nothing wrong.

He didn’t.

We disagree.

Perhaps you can cite and quote the rule that you think he violated that has you so upset.

All the democrats partisan trials of trump are eroding the countries faith in the neutrality of the Unites states courts.
As well the democrats going after prolife people and churches and conservatives and guns.
Just like all the democrats election shenanigans are eroding the countries faith in fair elections.
Just because the Supreme Court rules by the constitution instead of your woke plans does not mean that they have lost their neutrality or wisdom.
The only ones I see undermining our republic or the democrats. Your senile president who is the first president in my life time to demonize half the country. As well as allowing the country to be invaded,
The woke kooks are whining because there is still one branch of the government to put a stop to their plans. And I hope that stop remains for a long time.

Magnificent post!

Every part of it right on the money!

[Oldandtired]

Look at the democrats. Seems they lied when they said they supported women. Throwing them under the bus while they throw a tantrum because they are not getting their way.

He was invited on a trip other people were already going on. He was offered an empty seat on airplane already going there.

And you claim corruption for a case 6 years later and 7-1.

COrRupTioN!

When did I claim corruption?

I said he should report the gifts.

There’s nothing wrong with going fishing. Did they put the hook in the salmon’s mouth?

What he did wrong was, not reporting the gifts he was given.

[tnt]

@WuWei

@Ben_Natuf

absolutely! He got 7 SC justices to vote in his favor by paying for a little extra fuel for his Jet for one of them.

6 years later. He can predict the future.

Just pretend for a minute that RBG was given a ride on a private plane to Alaska by George Soros and when she got there Bill Gates paid for her stay at a fishing resort and then four years later, Gates had an anti-trust case before the court and she never disclosed the trip.

How do you know she didn’t if she never reported it?

[Ben_Natuf]

why would I have to imagine? RBG had plenty of gifts she didn’t disclose. All of the justices followed the ethical requirements of the time.

Libs and tantrums.
