(13,410 posts)All expenses luxury vacations do not necessarily have a direct impact on a Supreme Court decision, a decision shared by 8 other justices.
Alito and Thomas both know that they cannot be impeached because Republicans in Congress will refuse to do so. Nor will they resign their cushy jobs. They can commit all kinds of unethical acts, and there is nothing we can do about it other than raise a stink in the court of public opinion. They also dont care about public opinion. It would likely take years, but the process of amending the Constitution to get rid of lifetime appointments and to set some standards for judicial selection and behavior should start now. Lifetime appointments are an invitation to utter corruption, and Alito and Thomas stepped through that door long ago.
