When are the far left turd rollers going to come up with a Feral Judge bill that investigates the ethics of ALL FERAL “JUDGES”? They are the most corrupt tentacle of the DNC and they definitely need to be monitored for ethics violations.

Yep. Separate branch of government. Somehow the legislative is perfectly fine having ceded most of their power to the executive over the last century but wants to control the judiciary. Weird.

The democrats never thought about stuff like this when SCOTUS was ruling in favor of all things Left

Maybe they should pass this law and make it retroactive to a few weeks before its gay marriage decision. That way, Kagan and Ginsburg would have been forced to refuse themselves since they both officiated gay weddings.

Three words.

Separation of powers

The Congress, House or Senate, has no power over the Supreme Court of the United States.

Democrats define separation of powers as us them.

It’s not “news” when we read about Congress once again becoming involved with something they know little to nothing about.

“even if it passes, the court will simply strike it down as unconstitutional. Separate but equal.”

Very true, and no brainer. So why are the Democrats going ahead with this plan?

these nine justices have extraordinary powers under our Constitution,” Whitehouse and Durbin said. “The belief that they should not be held accountable or even disclose lavish gifts from wealthy benefactors is an affront to the nation they were chosen to serve.


Their cluelessness is STUNNING! Hey democrats, how about you apply the above to YOURSELVES!?

“Way to piss off the Supreme Court Chuckie!”

Just returning the favor. Only in their case it’s on not off.

“attempt to create outrage to later pack the court”

My first thought, and to keep the Supreme Court in the news.

Also a secondary effect that only true activists would be willing to accept the relatively low pay (for DC) that comes with the job, if they wind up having to pay for everything in their lives.

It’s possibly an election ploy. They will try to say that Republicans support justices getting freebies while the leftist judges take in millions selling books etc.
