Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire.

no actually it doesnt

no matter how many times you claim it does it doesn’t.

From the act itself...

MEMBERS OF CONGRESS, EMPLOYEES OF THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH WHO ARE GS-16 OR THE EQUIVALENT, AND CANDIDATES FOR CONGRESS MUST FILE STATEMENTS ON THEIR SOURCES OF INCOME BY MAY 15TH. REGULATIONS CONCERNING THESE REPORTS ARE DETAILED, INCLUDING BLIND TRUST REQUIREMENTS, FILING PROCEDURES, AND CIVIL PENALTIES. RULES GOVERNING THE COPYING, DESTRUCTION, AND USE OF SUCH REPORTS ARE DESCRIBED. DEFINITIONS OF TERMS USED IN THE LEGISLATION ARE PROVIDED. THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MONITORING COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAW AND MUST REPORT REGULARLY TO CONGRESS. THE ACT MANDATES SIMILAR REGULATIONS FOR EXECUTIVE LEVEL APPOINTMENTS, THE PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT, CANDIDATES FOR THESE OFFICES, SPECIFIED EMPLOYEES OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH, OFFICIALS OF THE POSTAL SERVICE, THE DIRECTOR OF THE OFFICE OF GOVERNMENT ETHICS, AND JUDICIAL OFFICERS AND THEIR EMPLOYEES.
 
Howso? Do you have any compelling evidence to back up your stupidly ridiculous accusation, commie bitchboy party of slavery supporter?
Let me get this straight. There is zero money going to Joe Biden from influencers and republicans are investigating it, yet there is iron clad evidence that money is openly going to Thomas and none of you care?

Yes, that applies to Clerks, POs, District Court Judges, Circuit Judges but not Supremes.


The full federal code applies to “United States circuit judges, district judges, Court of International Trade judges, Court of Federal Claims judges, bankruptcy judges, and magistrate judges.” It doesn’t apply to the Justices of the Supreme Court. (States have their own codes based on ABA guidelines.)
Why you ask? Well the US Constitution, and the concept of co-equal branches of Govt.

Supreme Court Justices aren’t required to observe the code. According to the Constitution, they serve as long as they exhibit “good behavior,” or face possible impeachment and removal for “treason, bribery, or other high crimes and misdemeanors."

You are comparing two separate things. The "code of conduct" is not the same as the Ethics law.

The Code of Conduct is put out by the Judicial Conference of the United States. The Ethics law was passed by Congress and even the Supremes are not above the law.

They are required to follow it, which is why they all make their disclosures every year. Why do you think they do that if they are not required to do so

Think Aged Black Democrat Congressional Members and their Undeclared Rental Properties in the Bahamas , if they can skate on it then Thomas needs no extra scrutiny

The article is refering to the Ethics Code of 1973....

The full federal code applies to “United States circuit judges, district judges, Court of International Trade judges, Court of Federal Claims judges, bankruptcy judges, and magistrate judges.” It doesn’t apply to the Justices of the Supreme Court. (States have their own codes based on ABA guidelines.)

Justices are subject to certainly laws in their personal lives, but the Legislative Branch can't provide a code of ethical conduct of a seperate co-equal branch of Govt...the Court.
 
He probably did, but he gave the perception that he had WMD because he wanted to frighten Iran. Our intelligence should never have taken the word of his son in law. Our intel failed and it cost thousands of lives and billions of dollars. And now Iran has the upper hand in Iraq.


The intel didn't fail. It was stovepiped by Cheney and his neocon minions like Feith, Wolfowitz, Perle, Abrams, etc to make it look like it was made to.
