The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) needs some oversight after seeing the reports of the lack of ethics by the members of the Court!\u00a0 Disapproval of SCOTUS has been increasing.<\/p>\n

\"Poll<\/a>John Oliver did a scathing report<\/a> on the ethics of the SCOTUS recently, especially Clarence Thomas, with a unique offer for Justice Thomas.\u00a0 But he is not the only one that seems to lack ethical and moral judgement.<\/p>\n

One of the points of John Oliver’s report was U.S. Federal Judges have a code of ethics, but it does not apply to the SCOTUS.\u00a0 There is federal law 28 U.S. Code \u00a7 455<\/a> – Disqualification of justice, judge, or magistrate judge,<\/em> which seems to be forgotten and does apply to the SCOTUS justices.\u00a0 Additionally the SCOTUS use to be thought of as above politics but no longer seems to be the case and maybe never really was<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Or maybe there should be term limits, age limits, ethic rules, political representation rules added to the U.S. Constitution for the SCOTUS.\u00a0 Just because something did not happen in the past does not mean it cannot happen in the future.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
