The only Constitutionally named office is the Chief Justice but the position is not mention in the part of the document creating the judiciary, Article lll, but in Article l where the CJ is designated to be the presiding officer over trials for impeachment of the President. It was Congess, in the Judiciary Act of 1789, that created the distinctive titles of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States and Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Today those designations are found in 28 U.S. Code § 1. Nor is the "term" of the office defined precisely in the Constitution. The document just says judges of the United States hold their office "during good behavior". By custom that has been interpreted to mean life but I argue there is nothing in the constitution that could limit Congress from specifically creating a "term", such as 20 years per judge. Technically I read the Constitution to simply say a judge could not be removed during that "term" except by impeachment for not good behavior.
Senator Danforth, Thomas' patron and recommender, claims Josh Hawley is 'the biggest mistake I ever made.' Because he's also Hawley's patron and recommender. Let's give him the business.How though? I wonder who else he may have recommended? Congressman Santos? Who's from Missouri?
What with the tyrannical decisions and the brazen corruption that is now being exposed, this has to be among the lowest of low points SCOTUS has ever reached.
This disgusting creep has been fucking up our country for over 30 years...after he lied his fat ass off under oath about being a predator scumbag. I know there's nothing that can be done because our government is in ruins and is being held hostage by literal Nazis, but maybe, just maybe, the DNC, Biden campaign or a democratic super pac should start running ads, 24 fucking 7, bashing the living shit out of Thomas, Trump, DeFuckhead, ALL OF THEM. Every right wing motherfucker who has participated in turning this country into fucking Saudi Arabia. Hire Tarantino or Errol Morris to make vicious ads about how these evils pieces of shit are driving us off a fucking cliff.
They're playing MurderBall. And, it's "game over," unless, (until) we, the Democrats enlarge, and "pack," this grossly unbalanced court. There's no other way, it seems to me.
Your remark regarding our soon-to-be-indistinguishable similarity to the Saudi Emirates is not far wrong. Or, actually, wrong at all. We are approaching that cliff.
You talking about Thomas and Ginni or Charles and Notdianna?

Just don't say that where they can hear you because that's not fair

And don't forget-- it was Rehnquist who put the special stripes on the Chief Justice's robe!
So icky! So icky.

Thomas' grin in that pic looks like a shark heading towards us. Also "Catch me and punish me if you can!"
BOTH!!! YES!! Two ugly toads in fancy dress. And they looked damned uncomfortable, too
Greg Weiner gave him $1200 in tires!! INPEACH!!
Thanks for that, he got $1200 in tires, too!
There's never just one grift.
Slugs have a better reputation and contribute to the world. This Thomas POS resembles Trump more than anything else to me.
