Again the Biased MSM favors the progressive leaning SCOTUS justices...

[healthmyths]

Watching CBS news they did a story SOLELY on Clarence Thomas regarding Harlan Crow, the conservative mega donor, revealed that Thomas took a private jet to travel between St. Louis and Kalispell, Mont., and a return flight to Dallas in May 2017; in March 2019, he took a private jet from Washington, D.C., to Savannah, Ga., and back; and in June 2021, the justice traveled from Washington, D.C., to San Jose, Calif., and back.

https://www.npr.org/2024/06/13/g-s1-4336/justice-clarence-thomas-harlan-crow-trips#:~:text=The%20subpoena%20of%20Harlan%20Crow,June%202021%2C%20the%20justice%20traveled

But CBS never mentioned the other Justices, like...
Sonia Sotomayor Associate Justice | Appointed by Barack Obama (2009) | Age: 69 | Net Worth: $5 million
Once there, she parlayed her pioneering story into lucrative book deals, which have provided $3.8 million in earnings since she joined the court,

• John Roberts Chief Justice of the United States | Appointed by George W. Bush (2005) | Age: 69 | Net Worth: $25 million
• Clarence Thomas Associate Justice | Appointed by George H.W. Bush (1991) | Age: 75 | Net Worth: $4 million
• Samuel Alito Associate Justice | Appointed by George W. Bush (2006) | Age: 73 | Net Worth: $10 million
• Sonia Sotomayor Associate Justice | Appointed by Barack Obama (2009) | Age: 69 | Net Worth: $5 million
• Once there, she parlayed her pioneering story into lucrative book deals, which have provided $3.8 million in earnings since she joined the court,
• Elena Kagan Associate Justice | Appointed by Barack Obama (2010) | Age: 63 | Net Worth: $4 million
• Neil Gorsuch Associate Justice | Appointed by Donald Trump (2017) | Age: 56 | Net Worth: $8 million
• Brett Kavanaugh by OlivierAssociate Justice | Appointed by Donald Trump (2018) | Age: 59 | Net Worth: $2 million
• Amy Coney Barett Associate Justice | Appointed by Donald Trump (2020) | Age: 52 | Net Worth: $4 million
• Ketanji Brown Jackson Associate Justice | Appointed by Joe Biden (2022) | Age: 53 | Net Worth: $2 million

So why didn't CBS go on and question why Sonia Sotomayor got a $3.8 million in earnings from her books?

The Net Worth Of Every Supreme Court Justice

The justices of the Supreme Court are worth a collective $64 million. Some of their finances—and relationships with the ultrawealthy—have attracted ethical scrutiny.

... because earnings from book deals are not inherently corrupt as accepting lavish gifts from people who have interests before you in Court of which you are the Judge.

How about Biden's book deal where he shared the top-secret information he criminally stole when he left the V. Presidency? That's not only treasonously corrupt, but it was dangerous to our national security. Our conservative SC judges all look like total saints and patriots when compared to JoJo or the progressive judges. MAGA

Then there is this:

Not only is he taking gifts from a conservative with issues in front of the court, he’s hiding them.

So you gave up the one attack, to make a false claim that "he criminally stole" documents, when such is not the case at all. When they were discovered, the former VP's people self reported the documents and arranged for their return.

What they did not do was lie, then deny and obstruct and cry like a certain "his Orangeness" did.

Such a losing round for you losers on the MAGA Alt Right 4Chan Qanon creeps.

Actually, they are. You don't believe those books actually sell that many copies, do you? Only from special interests that are trying to curry favor from the court.

That doesn't prove he didn't steel them. When you rob a bank, you don't get off the hook if you return the money, dumbass.

Damn right. Conservative judges flip flags upside down on a flagpole and the left goes APESHIT. Democrat judges can do anything they want without ANY questions from the left.

Except the liberal justices are pressuring TAXPAYER FUNDED institutions into buying hundreds of copies with taxpayer money in bulk, you know IF they want the justice to visit them also on the taxpayer's dime of course. Hundreds of trips. One spent $100,000 on copies of a book. Now you know how the scam is working.

 

[meaner gene]

That's because the two statutes are written differently. Bank robbery only requires the intent to take the money, where-as the classified documents statute requires the intent to permanently keep possession.

That's fucking bullshit. You're making that up. POST A LINK to the classified documents statute you are talking about.

And he DID intend to keep them permanently. He had them for YEARS. He only gave them up because his fucking lawyer found them. But that is irrelevant. He HAD classified documents unsecured in his garage for many years. WE ABSOLUTELY know this to be true.

Nice theory, but wrong party

The GOP’s big bulk book-buying machine is boosting Republicans on the bestseller lists

Rep. Dan Crenshaw’s memoir and social critique, “Fortitude: American Resilience in the Era of Outrage,” soared to the top of the bestseller lists when it was published last year. The book helped raise the former Navy SEAL’s profile and burnished his credentials as a rising star among freshman congressmen.

As it happens, Crenshaw and his publisher, Hachette Book Group, got a little help from the Texas Republican’s friends.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, which works to elect GOP candidates to Congress, spent nearly $400,000 on bulk purchases of the book. The organization acquired 25,500 copies through two online booksellers, enough to fuel “Fortitude’s” ascent up the bestseller lists. The NRCC said it gave away copies as incentives to donors, raising $1.5 million in the process.

The MSM has a lot on their plate without worrying about the Justices of the Supreme Court but it goes along with the Biden campaign to deflect interest in real issues like the freaking president's mental health.

As you pointed out. Biden had them for years, but there is no proof he even knew he had them. And when he found out he had them, he gave them back, which means he had no intent to permanently retain them.

And the law: 18 U.S. Code § 1924 - Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material

18 U.S. Code § 1924 - Unauthorized removal and retention of classified documents or material

...becomes possessed of documents or materials containing classified information of the United States, knowingly removes such documents or materials without authority and with the intent to retain such documents or materials at an unauthorized location shall be fined under this title or imprisoned for not more than five years, or both.

Did you see the latest SCOTUS decision on machine guns. That a gun modified to fire 200-800 rounds per minute, isn't a machine gun.

Quack !!!

Advances on Book deals are the "clean" way to get money to someone who shouldn't be getting it.

What special interests? Be specific

He took them, possessed them, lied that he had them, then obstructed.

A persecution defense by his lawyers will only ensure conviction.

This appears to be a largely Republican phenomenon.
