Americans have long viewed the Supreme Court as more trustworthy and less nakedly political than other parts of the government. Or at least Americans used to feel that way.​
In 2002, 50 percent of adults said that they had a lot of confidence in the court, according to Gallup’s annual polls on major institutions. Last year, in the most recent version of the poll, only 25 percent gave that answer. Other institutions have also become less trusted over the past two decades, but the court’s decline has been especially acute.
​
The Supreme Court is now less trusted than organized religion, organized labor or public schools...

I think we should swap Thomas for Anita Hill. At least I believe her story about Thomas being a lech.​
 
There's nothing liberals hate more than a CONSERVATIVE BLACK in a KEY POSITION.

Thomas is corrupt. You guys like that in a SCOTUS judge.

Public knowledge of his not reporting gifts from a rich repug. At the least this shows that he is unethical & smiling that he doesn't have to report it. His Nazi-loving donor has bought him.

He wasn’t required to disclose it and the person has never had any business before the Court. So where’s the corruption you allege?

About his record you are in the past tense. You believe all the riches his donor has given him won't influence him in the future?

So you’re accusing him of corruption that hasn’t happened?
 
It's difficult to trust the current SCOTUS when several of the justices have publicly perjured themselves.

They have no policy other than gaining or maintaining power. So to distract & attract the country they hammer on social issues like abortion, gun control & access, trans, LGTBQ, Trump's prosecutor, and continuing the lie that Trump's election was stolen. They are getting their voters stirred up, which was their objective. And the results are in the news: a mass shooting every day, far from an isolated incident like Columbine.

He is a liar, a tax cheat, and obviously has no ethics. We would hate any conservative with these qualifications. For example...defendant Trump.
