Going to be wild to have Clarence Thomas and other members of the court write that even the appearance of impropriety is sufficient to allow the President to remove Federal Reserve members from office, and then head off to Harlan Crow’s yacht

Nope, it's not going to be newsworthy at all, because SCOTUS corruption is no longer news.
While the majority, including Roberts and Barrett, side with Kagan, Jackson, and Sotomayor to save Powell and Cook because they don't want to trigger the apocalypse. Humphrey's Executor will exist, but only for the Fed.
What's not to hate about this MAGA Fascist Christianity Insanity Shitshow SCOTUS of Biblical Distortions?
The Christofascism is very pungent in this heat.💯😒
Solid prediction
Rather than dwell on these debates, I'd much rather spend my time on what truly matters—like cruising on a sport yacht and feeling the sea breeze. Since acquiring this yacht last month, all my worries seem to have stayed behind on shore. www.yachttrading.com/new-yachts-f...
When this is all over they don’t need to just be removed from the bench. They need to be indicated, prosecuted and incarcerated for crimes against the people.
For this, we would need a real opposition party. We don't have one at the moment. As evidence, look at the record of the Biden DOJ on Supreme Court justices being bribed, Trump committing treason, or even Musk's numerous corporate crimes, such as looting his own company. Crickets.
This right here is why none of this regime will leave voluntarily. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was part of their hiring packages … “ to never be replaced “…… as long as this regime maintains power.
This would be hugely funny if it wasn’t so cruelly accurate.
The absurd can often be malicious. There's a reason so many Nazis say to frame it as "teh lulz" 🥸 I mean, when they hadn't gone mask off, in 2016.
The U.S. is owned and operated by Trump and trumpism, and is closed until further notice.
Are you kidding, he will be writing the opinion from a stateroom on Harlan Crow's yacht. The Court isn't in session, he is out vacationing somewhere with his billionaire owners.
He’s prolly in the Epstein files to be honest.
Appearance of impropriety.... Please. Do not forget #EpsteinTrumpCoverUp Maxwells' testimony is garbage. youtu.be/r9R0cVLWlF8
IMPROPRIETY, of course, from the pig in the oval office.
Imagine being Clarence Thomas' entire family tree and being impoverished had it not been for Massa Harlan's Money
the corruption has destroyed us
America sucks so bad right now
So, if Cook should be dismissed because of fraud allegations, I wonder what the president* should be doing as a result of his fraud convictions? Fair is fair, no?
Fair? He is sending humans into hell! Every moment of every day. Humans kidnapped! Then tortured in a foreign country! Laws are GONE! Your every moment is a delusion! The children will die in a radioactive blast or live in the Putin created wasteland of North America!
Dude. You rather missed my point.
Imagine Hitler instead of trumpster. Hold on. Does your point remain relevant under a white power government? Does the word 'fair' have the same meaning under American law vs a white power law? One govt is worthy of discussion. One govt is only worthy of destruction. Which govt do you think have?
I'm not sure what you think I was saying, but I don't disagree with anything you said. Perhaps if I clarify: If Cook deserves to be fired for alleged mortgage fraud, maybe Shitler should resign for his fraud convictions. I'm highlighting his hypocrisy, knowing that he would never admit to it.
Thomas has demonstrated the appearance of impropriety and should be removed from office
Exactly God we are simply in a perfect storm. Fucked from every angle possible.
Yep. Uncle Clarence should look in a mirror if he wants to know what “appearance of impropriety” looks like.
That yacht needs to go to the bottom of the ocean.....with thomas and the oligarchs on board.
Can we get a torpedo on craigslist?
Yep!
look, all they have to look forward to is permanent historical disgrace, let them have their fun
When is this piece of shit Thomas going to retire?
No! Then the asshole will appoint someone young who is as bad or worse! Think Cannon....
Oh fuck, thanks for bringing me down to reality.
Oh, the hypocrisy of rich men in high places!
Is it possible to trie the 6 MAGA justices as adding and abetting a felon? Please put them in jail.
6 CORRUPT UN-supreme court judges! Their God is Money/Favors/Organized Crime! A demonic criminal kkkult opus dei mafia extremists! A pre-planned Conspiracy to defraud this Nation, people, environment, wealth, livelihoods, our voices/choices our education. Usurpation of gov./ Laws. Abuse of power!
There will be so many impeachment trials that will need to be done under a Democratic Congress and president in 2028.
Not nearly as wild as when they opine that Texas’s redistricting is fine but California’s is unconstitutional
Who the hell listens to idiots in Texas who watch their own spawn die because they trust the MAGAs...They will be running to vote for them again, in-case they have more spawn they want to kill.
All the while overlooking the appearance Trump rapes and or trafficked children!
Now that's the pot calling the kettle black...
This is a sadness. Hypocrisy is strong among the conservative power elite, for now!
Notice they don’t take American Express, probably because it’s American.
How many clip boards are qualified to be sent parcel post to each male justice to resign effectively today They’ll get A smirk But the fact it’s sent makes them think about it A constant bombardment of forcing them to stop their criminal/corrupt mindset
You mean, the same Clarence Thomas that in his concurrence opinion in overturning Roe v Wade called to overturn precedents based on privacy rights while conspicuously excluding Loving, which protects rights for interracial couples ?? Weird?!
We need to expand the court and weed out the wingnuts. There are more than legitimate reasons for impeachment of Thomas, Alito and Roberts. Kavanaugh, Gorsuch and Coney Barrett never should have been seated.
We need 13 justices for the 13 circuits.
Hypocrisy, thy name is SCOTUS. Anyone who doubts this current Court is bought and paid for by MAGA, is wilfully ignorant.
When I was in economics, folks wouldn’t even entertain this in conversation. It seemed like such an apocalyptically dumb & illegal unlikelihood that they figured it an unserious conversation.
Biden & the Senate majority Jud Com in 1991 could have listened to Anita Hill & never let him have a confirmation hearing. But oh no, who cares what a black woman says. Or who cares if a SCOTUS justice is a pervert. Who cares about anything but politics of the moment. So we're stuck w/ him 34 years.
they were afraid as being tagged as racists carrying out a "high-tech lynching."
And that the accusation of impropriety comes from an adjudicated fraudster 34x over proves irony is dead
Thanks. I hate how you're right. 👀
That won't stop them, though.
🔥
Don't forget that Clarence Thomas and the rest of the Republicans on the bench of the Supreme Court of the United States have enabled the destruction of the US Constitution and the installation of a Russian style Fascist Government, headed by a convicted criminal with authoritarian ambitions.
Pete, thanks.
Maybe it'll sink.
N they will
No shit!!! We should shame them constantly and where ever he drives his mobile home refuse him service!!!!
The Supreme Court needs to be completely replace with non-partisan judges. This version is a joke.
They lied under oath. That should be enough to impeach them, but I don't expect a GOP dominated Congress to do it.
tRump’s (no longer) Supreme schmucks
They are all helpers in driving the country into the ground. They all play important roles as willful undertakers.
The Corrupt Six need to be impeached and REMOVED!!!
Perverting the Constitution by placing tRump above the law is an exercise in corruption. No one is above the law. tRump is not a king or messiah.
2016 mattered. Who knew?
After Souter they were never going to trust another pick without knowing they'd lie about that question. Wouldn't be shocked if they waterboarded those 4.
Exactly
Anyone in our country who take any kind of oath should be fired immediately! Welcome to our upside down world…
Instead we have perjured oath takers deciding the law of the land for the rest of us.
* breakers
Yes, oath *breakers* - thank you
Oaths of office are meaningless perfomances. Change my mind.
YOU DID NOTICE FELON TRUMP NEVER PUT HIS HAND ON THE BIBLE…… SHE WON 💙 & HE KNOWS IT.
Without a penalty of jail, the only punishment is impeachment. That should change.
Exactly. It's such bullshit
Oaths don't mean much to oathbreakers. They have no honor.
They’re only meaningless if the people taking them make them meaningless. Like most of the GOP right now.
And, if there are no repercussions. You should be fired for breaking an oath…
The 6 MAGAt justices need to be removed. They are basing their rulings on religion and CONServative ideology. The other 3 justices are basing their rulings on US law and the US Constitution.
I don't want "non partisan" judges. I want my partisan judges. I want to strip my ideological enemies of their franchise and gerrymander them into obscurity because they and their politics are evil. I'm not interested in playing fair against people who want to murder me.
Then you don’t want a Supreme Court. A partisan court is a Kangaroo Court—Pretty much what you have now. It’s hard I know. I sometimes want to burn everything down bc I’m so mad, but it won’t fix anything. ‘Fix your institutions and never allow this to happen again’ is the only way forward now…
easy, the next president should just fire them. the Roberts court really goes in for those sorts of naked power grabs so i dont think they'll have any objections
Wtf is a non-partiean person in modern America? You can't defend democracy with judges who are neutral on partisan questions like "should America be a democracy". They have to be committed partisans.
Someone who is committed to the values of democracy and the rule of law as we know it (not the kangaroo court fascist version) can easily be non-partisan. My father was, for example. But, I’m in Canada and we appoint our judges based on merit not who they last slept with…
They could start with adherence to settled law for a start. The 3 most recent appointees all said Roe was settled law until they got in post. This is also a problem of lifetime appointments & being chosen by the President, instead of on merit
You're listing partisan values and saying non-partisan. You might as well say someone can be committed to a woman's right to choose, strong gun control, and keeping money out of politics as a nonpartisan.
Hypocrisy is a feature not a bug
Caesar's Wife (but not his Mistress)
Abolish SCOTUS. No packing. No replacement. Written out of the constitution.
Would he be heading to Crow's yacht or the motorhome?
Impropriety doesn't matter and they don't care what any of us think. They are running roughshod over this country.
If the Supreme Court allows Trump to fire her it will be the end of independence for the Fed and a nightmare for all investors in the Markets! Plus Treasury Bonds which are the safest investments to Countries World Wide will lose their place as a completely safe investment!!
It will destroy the international markets because no one in their right mind trusts a convicted felon, rapist and child molester...except for the insane morons who think like him The Russians and the No. Koreans where all MAGAtards need to visit for 10-20 years.
When SCOTUS see 3 perceived enemies of the fat orange one are all under suspicion of fraud for the same thing and the head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte. Justice Department attorney Ed Martin also urged Chair Jerome Powell to fire Cook from her post and confirmed a
criminal investigation will take place. A criminal investigation from the criminals, that is rich! If only Pulte has not gone on the no news Fox to advertise he did this for his orange Jesus. There is always one big mouth in the
orange Regime and that is why they have been consistently loosing cases. Remember they all voted against him last week, all 9! I want to see Cook point out that the MAGA convicted criminal AG Paxton in Texas has 5 homes all listed as his permanent residence. One of his whores in each home?
Then watch the interest rates for them to go sky high and the markets to tank big time as the entities holding our debt dump our bonds!
Absolutely correct!!!
You’re absolutely right! Trump is the worst disaster for America in our entire history!
The fat orange guy has been buying bonds like crazy so he can tank the markets at any time...go ahead MAGATs tempt him because you won't even have that $5. you saved for retirement!
Right !
Amen!
Correct
Followed by an over night stay at Mar A Lago
Yes Sir- that is indeed what we can expect from the Trump cult pretending to be Justices. No longer a court of law but a Trump GOP fascist PAC that mangles the Constitution with every opportunity.
Will we be graced with a written opinion?
When you bend the laws to destroy your perceived enemies, you are showing complete contempt for your country.
I'm talking about the likes to camp in Walmart parking lots Clarence Thomas.
LoL, yes
Yep, then Roberts will publicly agonize over the demonization of the court and pretend to have no clue why that is. Rinse and repeat.
I have a friend that lives in Harlan’s neighborhood.
They may not let her be removed. If trust in the Fed falls so does all their money. Bond markets will tank.
Remember earlier this year when we said the pres could remove members of independent bodies but told you not to worry about the Fed because of its “unique history”? Wellllll…
old pendejo will take his baksheesh SUPER RV. youtu.be/2sE89CMfvis?...
Ha,,,,Ha!!!!
It was wild when we discovered Clarence Thomas was on the take during the Biden administration and the Democrats did ... nothing. No impeachment,no hearings, nothing from the doj, nothing from Biden. Just another station on our way to non-democracy - a bipartisan effort!
Was up Up to (corrupt maj. gop) Congress not President Biden!
Nothing seemed to be "up" to Biden. See what a president can do who wants to grab the spotlight. Maybe Biden making several speeches about the way the supreme court justices were bribed might have been "up" there with things he could do. But -- it wouldn't be bipartisan! it might disturb the donors!
Citizens United by SCROTUS unlimited fkn PAC Money ability to buy Influence, power/affecting laws favoring 🤑 Deep State-been planning coup since Raygun! Biden did not weaponize the SC, DOJ, FBI! Fkkn Shadow gov. Coup plot SCOTUS-gop illegally usurped& weaponized gov. P3does/Opus Dei taliban!
The hypocrisy is everywhere.
If SCOTUS allows Trump to fire Ms. Cook, that will be its death knell.
Or Alito heading to one of Paul Singer’s private jets for an Alaskan fishing expedition.
Shameful and disgusting, not wild.
The "Immunity" decision was a Seditious Conspiracy. Nothing they do now will surprise anyone.
This Florida lawyer writes about the topic of removing Federal Reserve office holders, specifically Lisa Cook. It comes down to the meaning of "for cause". In the private sector Mortgage Fraud is generally considered "for cause". Courts have not yet ruled on this case.
And then we find out six weeks later they cashed out their 401ks two hours before the decision dropped
The mother f—-kers!!!
Sadly, you may have correctly predicted the future.
The democrats need to follow the republicans advice and just ignore the supreme court. Their rulings are corrupt, their morals are tainted and they no longer serve any purpose. Send the state police to arrest them and just like ICE does - if they sign a resignation statement, they can be let go.
🤣🤣🤣✋✋✋
🤬😡🤮💩
The Supreme Cult 😡
Sad Truth, the court has twisted the constitution to suit the Fascists, the authoritarians that want to crush and silence us.
Yes. Yes it will. But - having no morals or integrity will make it easy for them to do just that. #thesupremecourtisbroken
Fascist Supreme Court of the United States of America 🇺🇸
*IF* the Democrats flip Congress in 2026, the very first thing thye need to do is impeach Robetrs, Thomas, Alito, Grosuch, and Cavanagh. This decision could be their death knell. THEN Congress can deal with the mess without fear of reversal.
Hypocrites, all. OK, Not all, not Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan or Ketanji Brown Jackson…
Corrupt ass slaver court
“manufactured and un-adjudicated appearance of impropriety” — Slight modification, apologies.
Pelican Brief
CHARGE Ken Paxon with falsifying BANK RECORDS too. Oh he's GOP? Even better. www.cbsnews.com/amp/texas/ne...
And that too coming from this most corrupt president
Dang!!! Even that name is sinister. Harlan Crow 😱
I think if you read it carefully you'll see that such things are only grounds for removal if an official act doesn't take place as a result of the official's personal benefit.
Yep your exactly right
That's why the Seditious Six are going to give Trump a pass. #Trumpocalypse
They've become so corrupt that their future is directly tied to expanding tyrrany. A return to democracy is a threat to not only their power, but possibly their freedom as well.
What’s going to be interesting is if they approve it, the next democratic president can fire Clarence and Brett based on past inappropriate behavior. Alito’s upside down flag is grounds for dismissal as well. Then you have Robert’s who’s allowed the court to become partisan hacks—bye. Will see.
Nailed it
Justice would be the yacht immediately sinking. Or maybe not considering Trump could appoint another corrupt justice.
Thomas has the same issues as his cult leader does.
Impropriety for me, not for thee.
🎯
These Supreme Court members will be open to investigations after MAGA’s defeats in 2026 and 2028. The court might need to be reconstituted after a judicial review. A few might join people in the alligator alcatraz.

Sick eh?
Supreme insurrectionist court
Don’t forget, they are ‘the supreme court’ and above any appearance of impropriety….
All Republican appointed members of the Supreme Court are corrupt as hell
He is one corrupt Supreme Court Justice., cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/08/the-...
... one of several
This is so true.
🤦♀️ why is this allowed
RIDICULOUS 😡
Term limits needed!!
No what’s really going to be wild is when they try to make biracial marriage illegal again. What’s good ol boy Clarence going to do then?
Impeach them😮💨💯
Thomas et all need to join the GOP at Nuremberg.
What?
Their mantra is “what’s good for thee is not good for me”
So much overt corruption, moral bankruptcy and ethics violations - the right wing of SCOTUS either think the public is stupid, or they simply don't give a shit what people think because they have all the power.
A little of the former, a lot of the latter.
I am sure Harlan's going to want this to happen 🤬
It's all about the vibes!
Maybe we’ll get a twofer and they’ll decide on the same day why it’s constitutional for red states to gerrymander but not blue ones.
The hypocrisy by what was the most respected branch of government is disgusting. Some have have been caught doing unethical things too, like the people they verbally attack, & now have the audacity to persecute them.
😮
Actually, that seems to be one of the few things SCOTUS does care about. I know they will not allow Powell to be fired. The rest of them, who knows.
They have no shame because they think the world owes them everything Just like President Cankles
Removing people from the Federal Reserve won't erase this paper trail. OTP vp
He’s probably in the Epstein files too
Six corrupt justices what could go wrong?
Or still bend over for a president with 34 felony convictions.
The hypocrisies coming from this admin and enablers are over-whelming to say the least, but so were all the other dictatorial regime changes, they will win by any method at this point or be jailed for treason!
When the next Dem president increases the court's roster to 13 justices, it won't matter what Thomas, Alito or the other cons write. If the Senate doesn't have a Dem majority to get nominees confirmed, Project 2025 provides the solution. Take enough GOP senators into custody to shift voting balance.
IMPRISON Thomas
Their hypocrisy is a strong point.
The "Appearance of Impropriety" is a subjective standard evident in the eyes of the beholder. If it is to be applied, then it calls into question the arbiter of the standard - a test no one in the Trump administration can pass.
WE MUST PACK THE COURT AND TRIALS FOR THOMAS AND ALITO AND THEIR MAGA CRAZY WIVES. FUCK THEM—CONSEQUENCES for GRIFT AND TREASON MUST BE SWIFT AND SEVERE @housedemocrats.bsky.social @commerce.senate.gov @judiciarydems.senate.gov @senatepress.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov @govpritzker.illinois.gov
Again - irony or hypocrisy will be lost on them. They live in the moment!
Just need to keep that ruling on our minds when it’s time to set 15-year term limits on Supreme Court justices, effective immediately upon passage.
Sounds like a court that doesn’t expect a democratic president to ever be elected again
Actually I’m not sure Harlan Crow wants the US financial system thrown into turmoil, but maybe I’m wrong.
Typical MAGA behavior: "Hooray for ME and Fuck you."
A few of them have enough skeletons in their closets that they would expect Trump to investigate and reveal some of them if they cross him. Alito, Thomas, Boof Kavanaugh. It would be easy for the FBI to figure out who paid his debts, and his baseball tickets.
Is Harlan supplying the entertainment Epstein used to?
Took me a beat to remember that Harlan Crow is not a character from Justified...
Ooo, touche’
Thise standards only pertain to the opposition.
Fuck this
Thought they were supposed to retire about now?
John Roberts is Project 2025 through and through. He used to try to “appear” non-partisan and human - he’s not hiding anymore .
I just mentioned this about him playing the long game in the roll of somewhat moderate conservative for so long. The mask is off. This is who he is.
The John Roberts Garbage Court Liars Thieves Traitors Sexual Predators
But you know they will!
Excellent comparison.

#Calvinball-court
Those glacier martinis won't drink themselves after all
Our next President can use it
Ah, irony. I miss you.
It's pointless to apply this kind of logic to people who don't stand for anything but themselves.
Waiting for the eventual 'red state gerrymandering is constitutional, blue state gerrymandering is not' ruling.
We stand a good chance of seeing this double standard.
ha perfect
Thomas has been a justice for 30 years but he’ll still give out blowies for gas money.
"appearance of impropriety"..... has anyone illustrated more of this than the orange Fuhrer currently in the WH? Why does Hump always get a pass - proof SCOTUS is truly bought and paid for by reich wing billionaires.
Not wild, just predictable
Love that huge RV, Clarence, where’d you ‘pick that up’..?
Our Supreme Inquisitors deserve a break after a long day of subverting democracy, propping up a wannabe dictator, and shredding the Constitution. Get out on the boat, have a few drinks, rape some kids, maybe a nice Grouper for dinner.
That's a sharp point on your spear.
Oh it’s coming
What's even more "wild", they must not understand the true meaning "impropriety"...Thomas & his wife, show this with what they do....have done.
They only know the meaning of entitled.

May that yacht sink and burn.
1. Almost everything in Constitution is in it to reduce bribery, tyranny, corruption. Powers discussed in Article 1, Section 8 of Constitution belong solely to Congress and may not be shared with President.
2 Roman Emperors destroyed the value of currency of Rome. The Federal Reserve is not constitutional. Not constitutional to give President power to tariff. Not constitutional to give President Resolution Authorizing Force.
3 Would it be constitutional for Congress to create a Declare War and Military Draft Board with 12 members picked by President and US Senate turned into minor player with just Advice and Consent and US House of Representatives having no say on Declaring War and Military Draft? No
4 USA is not a Democracy. Democracy is tyranny of the poorly educated mob that likes being poorly educated. USA is Federal Republic which is supposed to have Republican Form of Government. It does not.
5 USA does not have 3 coequal branches of government. Most powerful branch of federal government is Congress and most powerful part of Congress is US Senate and our founders wanted powers of US Senate controlled by State legislatures.
6 Many US Senators that were chosen by State legislatures were extremely corrupt. Democrats thought they would make things better by having people pick US Senators. They ended up making things over 100 times worse. They took away the ability of State legislatures to stop tyranny.
7 State legislatures lost ability to choose judges on US Supreme Court and lost ability to have say on Declaring War, tariffs, regulation of banks and investment companies.
8 Amendment to Constitution - people should have power to fire President, Vice President, Speaker of US House of Representatives, Secretary of State of USA, judges on US Supreme Court.
9 Amendment to Constitution - allow each State to have 3 US Senators - 2 chosen by the people and 1 by State legislature. Allow State legislatures to fire US Senators they choose whenever they want and pick replacements.
10 Amendment to Constitution - state legislatures should have power to fire President, Vice President, Speaker of US House of Representatives, Secretary of State of USA, judges on US Supreme Court.
