The legal ‘profession’ is adrift. It has been for a long time.

Is that like "the Oldest Profession"?

Big Pharma(as you point out), the FBI, the Department of Justice, big sports, Hollywood, Wall Street, Congress…why go on? I can think of no major American institution that is not corrupt.

Judicial Ethics is an oxymoron.

My perception of John Roberts: he's a career washington insider that is totally political but he desperately wants to appear non-political. So he calculatedly makes some ruling in things where it surprises people but then twists his mind into unbelievable pretzel knots to justify positions on others so he can rule in favor of something he politically desires while trying to appear as if he is just following the law (which doesn't work).

In his zeal to trick people into believing that he's not political he actually has become MORE political than he probably was before. Nobody can possible believe at this point that the man rules solely on the basis of the constitution at this point, not since Obamacare and several other eye popping positiobs he's taken.

Roberts is so corrupt it is laughable. Every since he created the path for Obamacare he has been tainted and corrupt with no way for salvation. Which became totally true during the SCOTUS refusing to hear any cases concerning election fraud.

A gallows works for me.

“Roberts went on to add that most
judges strictly adhere to the
guidelines laid out and that any
incident where a conflict of
interest was found was likely
“isolated” and “unintentional.””


Should this prove true, I’ll eat my hat!

Consider that people like Roberts, and probably the majority of Supreme Court Justices likely would not have done well in a STEM field. They are not the ‘intellectual giants’ that proponents of the legal profession, and government, would have you believe.
