Mickey wouldn’t post this if it wasn’t under a screen name. He is usually somewhat reasonable. Thomas really bothers him, clearly. It’s strange. What could it be about him?



Thomas really doesn't bother me. I don't give much thought to the SCOTUS honestly. I went to a speaking engagement that he participated in years ago and actually liked him.

Which cases, specifically? And which financial dealings, specifically?

And if the cases have not reached the court, how can you allege he is compromised?

I never said he broke any rules.


Yet you post this:

quote:

Rule 1.2: Promoting Confidence in the Judiciary A judge shall act at all times in a manner that promotes public confidence in the independence,* integrity,* and impartiality* of the judiciary, and shall avoid impropriety and the appearance of impropriety.


Are you making the allegation he violated 1.2 or not?

I have no clue who they are and what they are doing isn’t likely anything the ODC would care about…at all. I just think it’s funny the flimsy accusations they use to indict Thomas are weaker than me saying they are violating a rule.

All I'm saying is his financial disclosures were/are worth looking into. It obviously was needed as previously unknown connections to wealthy donors are now public knowledge as they should be.

Isn’t that precisely what the U.S Judicial conference, which is the subject of the OP, did? Yet here you are, I guess, insinuating…since you claim you aren’t making allegations.

Again, is amending a disclosure evidence of anything in any court anywhere? Or are you purposely engaging in deceitful conduct in your insinuations regarding a sitting Supreme Court justice?

His non-allegation allegation is about an “appearance of impropriety.” I’d love to see his posts about that rule regarding any of the Trump lawfare cases.

And what case or ruling led him to believe there is an appearance of impropriety?

My initial post was more about the "Thomas Derangement Syndrome" line. It's as if anything regarding Thomas is a witch hunt when this "witch hunt" led to him amending his financial disclosures and led to the SCOTUS adopting new rules of professional conduct.

This is weird timing by the left. Let's say they put enough pressure on Thomas to resign, Trump will just appoint his replacement. In fact, it's likely that this will happen during Trump's 2nd term anyway because Thomas is likely to retire. So is Alito. The wildcard is Type 1 diabetic Sotomayor. The average lifespan of female type 1 diabetics is 68 years. Sonia is 70. But since she is receiving the best healthcare in the world she will likely make it past Trump's second term as she falls within the right side tail of the type 1 diabetic normal distribution curve.

Well, you know why.

The Anita Hill nonsense was the original Brett Kavanaugh set-up.

Why Anita Hill's Story Never Added Up

When they've gone after you falsely once, that perception tends to stick.

A Sorosite invited his neighbor over for a beer. When the neighbor entered the house he gasped when he saw that there was human shite everywhere and the house smelled like a sewer.

The Sorosite looked at his neighbor with an accusatory expression and said,”damn, dude, did you just fart?!”

Identify a Sorosite, isolate them, then eradicate them!

Make your allegation. I’ve asked several times and you have avoided. Is amending a disclosure evidence of anything I. Any court of law anywhere?


Also…what is the specific “gift” that was the subject of the amended disclosure. Was it a gift as defined by the Tax Code or was it a more lenient definition used by political enemies? Was the amended disclosure required by any specific code? If so, which? Can you think of another reason, besides something nefarious, that might cause Thomas to decide to amend the disclosure?


Of course you know I am correct, yet you deceitfully insinuate in an attempt to smear a sitting justice.

Because I'm not making an allegation. Investigating something does not mean an allegation is being made.
