Chief Justice John Roberts rejected a request to meet with Democratic senators to discuss the Supreme Court’s ethics controversies, including recent revelations that flags associated with right-wing causes flew at Justice Samuel Alito’s houses.
Democratic Senators Seek Meeting with John Roberts
Two senior Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee, including Chair Dick Durbin (D-IL), are requesting a meeting with Chief Justice John Roberts “as soon as possible” amid reports that properties owned by Justice Samuel Alito displayed two flags with links to the Jan. 6 insurrection, Politico reports.
I don't care that much about the price of event tickets when the Supreme Court is held hostage by Right-wing, grifting, criminal, racist motherfuckers.
In the end, the court appears to be doing everything to destroy itself, democracy, and the union, with its own arrogance and lack of foresight. It’s either castrated itself, and in the process doomed the country, or signed its own death warrant. #SCOTUS#SupremeCorruption#VoteBlueEveryTime
SCOTUS dragging its feet on a decision about Trump’s ludicrous immunity claim is a stain on the court that cannot be washed out. It will be written and talked about for centuries to come. Shame on John Roberts and the Right-wing justices.

New York Times: “In earlier interviews, Justice Breyer could be rambling and opaque. This time he was direct. He said he meant to sound an alarm about the direction of the Supreme Court.”
Said Breyer: “Something important is going on.”
He continued: “There are too many questions. Are they really going to allow women to die on the table because they won’t allow an abortion which would save her life? I mean, really, no one would do that.”
