WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court would have to abide by stronger ethics standards under legislation approved on Thursday by the Senate Judiciary Committee, a response to recent revelations about donor-funded trips by justices. The bill faced united opposition from Republicans, who said it could “destroy” the court.

    🤣 😂🤣. It’s just funny they think that some ethics rules would destroy the court. If they believe it’s that corrupt then they should be in support of the rules.

      They believe that ethics rules harm conservatives disproportionately.

      They’re right, they do. At least on the SCOTUS, we have clear evidence that conservatives behave far less ethically in general, and so forcing ethical behavior on the court will hurt the conservative agenda.

      Because the conservative agenda is not ethical.
