The republicans have made honesty & honor a joke! They have committed crimes against our country & us for money & power. One more thing- it’s never enough!

And boy are they making a killing in the civil forfeiture game as well. They are really lacing pockets in the Eastern District of North Carolina. Hint @propublica.org

Thomas is the name that matters

There needs to be a judicial governing board who decides this. Relying on people to do the right thing is pure fantasy.

Thank you for this information, and your help.

One thing good about pres felony is we're finding out how crooked our government is.

Now, how can we fight back?
This sickens me.

You will never find yourself capable of wrongdoing. Everyone in positions of authority need oversight.

All those cases need thrown out, and looking at you Clarence Thomas and your travel buddy

justice blindfolded, but eyes wide.

it's reassuring to know that justice is served with a side of nepotism. the judicial system seems to have a unique interpretation of impartiality, one that favors family ties over ethical standards. perhaps it's time we reassess the criteria for who gets to wear the robe.

We need to pass a law that any judge doing this will face mandatory impeachment. Period. That should end it.

It's optional so why should they? This trusting government officials on an 'honor system' basis has always been silly.

Like the NC Supreme Court judge loser’s dad being a judge on his trial to attempt to throw out votes
