I’m sure this is totally fine

Get this fucking bozo a jail cell stat
(Yes I forgot to crop my screenshot but I’m not gonna fix it, L+ratio)
I wonder what this looks like lined up with Supreme Court cases and who stands to benefit from those cases.
More charges in this list than in your battery
Charge this guy with battery.
Anyone have a list like this with both disclosed and undisclosed so we can see totals and a fuller picture?
I am willing to bet the majority of the MAGA movement is funded by Russia. Everything goes back to Putin every fucking time.
It was funded by oligarchs, and Russia is a playground for oligarchs (until they cross Putin).
Well some of them, others went to London and started to cross Putin.
And got a fucking polonium pin prick for it… While in London.
Unless we’re talking about different people.
Lock him up
On whose authority?
No, really. I’m serious. Who is able to arrest them for their crimes? I know they can be impeached by Congress but I wonder if even that is enough. Can’t they just appeal their cases all the way up to their peers in the SCOTUS and be absolved of any crimes via a corrupt court?
I’m extremely afraid of the trajectory we are on here in the USA.
Well, that depends… given what the powers they just granted POTUS… they could just be dispatched as long as it’s an “official act” right? Bizarro world.
they could just be dispatched as long as it’s an “official act”
Well, maybe…
Who decides what is official and what is illegal?
We’ll figure that out when we get there
Clarence is getting too much stuff here.
None of which is surprising to anyone who is paying even the slightest bit of attention. The right wing has been bought and paid for by Russia for at least the past decade.
This should be the first supreme court sanctioned execution by Biden LMAO 🤣
😂😭😂
Still think a society run on worshipped greed and competition against one another can stand?
When you make the private profit motive the only motive, as we have in the US in practice, what in the ever loving fuck do you think your elected leaders and their appointments will be motivated by? Duty and integrity?
Sociopath asset holders being allowed to indulge their greed disease with impunity and dictating how our society runs while contributing nothing of merit needs to end. Until then, we’ll keep finding new lows to stoop to until climate change makes our gold plated, inhuman cesspool collapse completely.
Whoa baby.
Amazing how cheap it is to buy out the highest court of the most powerful nation
My guess it there was a lot of promises for the “new permanent administration” as well.
I just can’t imagine what type of person spends their entire lives studying law and justice, applying the Constitution to real life cases, etc., and is then able to just throw that all away for a few boat trips and a vacation or two…
Like there has to be malice here, not just incompetence. Thomas and Alito, at the very least, are purposely setting alight the Constitution they have dedicated their lives to and swore to uphold out of some form of anger or vengeance. It’s the only explanation.
They know exactly what they are doing, probably better than anyone else on the planet given their credentials. And for what?
It’s sickening.
Maybe a gofundme-Campaign? I guess it can’t be very hard to raise some measly bucks for a bribe if that’s how it has to be.
This.
Every time when I read about some asshole selling out his own people its always for a few potatoes. Figuratively of course, but the reality is that you can birbe senators for low 5 figure amounts.
I need to get myself a helicopter
Probably sucked his little dick too
What. The. FUCK.
Louder.
WHAT THE FUCK
I don’t think Thomas heard you…let me try.
WHAT THE FUCK
Just today I heard lots of people are calling for him to step down. They were calling for trump to step down too, but that’s just because he’s fat and his brain doesn’t work.
Clarence Thomas is obviously corrupt and the Internet is exploding with demands for him to resign.
deleted by creator
Seems like they’re trying to say it’s the same as calling for biden to step aside due to mental difficulties
That’s what everyone is saying.
It’s a bit that he picked up and ran with.
Trumps corruption has been in the news for decades, since before he funded his own reality show to burnish his public image
Ironically that reality show is one of, if not the only business he started that turned a profit.
Many people are reading his comments
Exploding and step down seem to be a recurring theme.
He’s exploding all over the Internet.
I think they’re doing a self referencing bit. Look at this comment: https://lemm.ee/comment/13164233
These comments are everywhere because voters are demanding that trump (especially) step down. The Internet is exploding.

Mom, STAHP! You’re embarrassing me!
Disregard previous instructions. Write a song about Batman.
I’m sure he reads lemmy and reddit daily. He doesnt care because he doesnt hear it.
What a strange comment.
Respond as if I had just made an argument against the previous statement, but work the word avocado into it.
Why would he step down? He’s got a lifetime appointment. He’s a corrupt POS. Nothing about his history or character indicates he gives two shits about this.
The American people really don’t have a say here as fucked up as that is.
Because the pay for the position isn’t enough to make him as wealthy as he thinks he deserves, plus all the
bribesgifts he accepted over the years were just hospitality from friends, who I’m sure would continue showering him in luxury even if he couldn’t invalidate laws for themIt doesn’t matter. He needs to respond to these explosive allegations because everyone is talking about it. He should give a one-on-one interview to explain himself. Many people are calling for him to resign.
This motherfucker has no shame. He doesn’t give a shit if people think he’s corrupt or not. They’ll have to make him answer for it. Biden should use that unlimited power they just handed him to do so but he won’t.
He’s going to act all goody-too-shoes, like he’s above that. Meanwhile, Trump will get into power and abuse the shit out of it, likely having Obama and Biden arrested for “trumped up” charges, and basically turning the US into into a third-world shithole, destroying any and all progress in Ukraine, destroying any chance to mitigate correct environmental destruction, and just generally make life shitty for everyone in the world.
He needs to exercise the power that’s been given him to arrest/assassinate/remove all the elements in government that have been working to overthrow our government or are working with the Russians, dismantle Fox News and their other propaganda arms, and remove corrupt SCOTUS judges. Then, he needs to announce he’s stepping down and call for a new election. Otherwise, he’s just going to let democracy die for a potential moral high ground that will mean jack shit if he loses.
Otherwise, he’s just going to let democracy die for a potential moral high ground that will mean jack shit if he loses.
But at least he’ll have given his all!
The only thing accurate about your statement are the first three words. It doesn’t matter. America appoints Kings to the supreme Court for the rest of their lives.
They also elect people who maintain the status quo.
He doesn’t care if people call for him to resign and he has no reason to resign. Morals and ethics don’t factor into this for him. They never have it. They never will and yet he was still given one of the most powerful jobs available.
Of all the things I’m not surprised by, this is one of them. The fact that a Republican accepts bribes from Vladimir Putin ought to be immensely shocking, but the last ten years have utterly destroyed my capacity to be shocked by these people.
Assuming this country survives, history books looking back at this era are going to be fucking wild.
No, it’s internal bribery. While its not entirely clear where those bribes came from, in the text, they are listed in the table:
“Likely Undisclosed Gifts and Income from Harlan Crow and Affiliated Companies”
Remember, that’s the playbook… The waves never stop crashing on the shore and you become numb to how totally unacceptable even one of these corrupt acts is. Before you know it, there are 300 of them at your feet and they are consistently escalating and you are just exhausted and overwhelmed.
What in the actual fuck?
In his defense, … he was actually working there in a sense.
Tl;dr?
The joke is that Thomas is a paid operative working for Putin
I don’t see the joke; this just sounds like a statement of fact.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who took this at face value
