Justice Elena Kagan declined Thursday to outright answer the question of whether Congress could impose an ethics code on the Supreme Court, but she did allow that it could do “various things” to regulate the high court.

“It just can’t be that the court is the only institution that is somehow not subject to any checks and balances from anybody else,” she said, adding, “I mean, we are not imperial.”

“We, too, are part of a checks and balances system,” she said.

    Kagan actually respects the system of government, unlike every other justice. They want to act like they’re above everyone else, fuck that.

      unlike every other justice.

      Has Jackson proven to be an elitist hack?
