Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse Demands Investigation of Justice Samuel Alito's 'Improper Opining'
Red State ^ | 09/06/2023 | streiff

Posted on 09/06/2023 2:30:45 PM PDT by DFG

In an unfortunate act of self-beclowning perhaps unequaled by anything "The Squad" has come up with this week, Rhode Island Democrat Senator Sheldon Whitehouse has sent a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts demanding that he open an ethics investigation into Justice Samuel Alito for among other things, 'improper opining.

None of this is hard to understand. Whitehouse is leading the charge to create an outside watchdog group to monitor the "ethics" of US Supreme Court justices. While he cloaks the bill in "good government" bullsh**, it has three purposes. First, to create a body that will respond to Democrat demands for investigations; second, to use the body to invent "conflicts of interest" to force selected justices to recuse themselves from cases on the most specious of grounds; and third, to run Justice Clarence Thomas off the Court.

The improper opining comes from a Wall Street Journal interview (Samuel Alito, the Supreme Court’s Plain-Spoken Defender) where he discussed Whitehouse's efforts to meddle in the internal workings of another branch of government.

Roberts should respond by opening an ethics investigation into Whitehouse and his 11 yr old boyfriend.

More evidence of the need for a competency test to sit in the Senate.

Making yourself look stupid and disguising it as a flaw in the Supreme Court is a bit childish. But hey, as long as they’re eating each other. I don’t think the government or our politicians have any interest in the public anymore? They have become “Lord’s of the Flies”.

Traitor Roberts:

“We do not have Obama judges or Trump judges, Bush judges or Clinton judges,” Mr. Roberts said.”

Whitehouse is one of the slimiest of the Democrat senators.He has zero integrity or ethics. He would have to have the most powerful rocket in the world strapped to his back just to get to the lowest sewer level.

The RATs are desperate. They’ve hired bottomfeeding, Nazi hitmen to try to take out Supreme Court Justices. That’s the only way that the Dung Beetle Party can get total control of America. They’ve already prepared the noose for Justice Thomas. Alito is next. Scalia was first.

Even the Rhode Island legislature couldn’t do worse!

But, doesn’t that pesky constitution talk about the separation from the three equal powers in the United States government?

Whitehouse is another lunatic Democrat MARXIST from New England and the NJ/NY crime/communist complex.

He even makes Sununu sound sane.

Should change his name to Redhouse. More appropriate. Can join with changed name Blumenthal to Blooming Idiot to form the “Damaged Duo” of the deranged.

There is something in their water besides lobsters and mobsters and it is not purified.
