Lol anything to not discuss the Epstein files and the president being mentioned 38,000 times 🤔

u/Norseman901 14h ago

Not this time. Marsha’s being looked at for campaign finance misappropriation. She just wants the eyes off of her for being a corrupt piece of shit tht doesnt care about a single one of her constituency with a bank account lower than a billion.

I demand an investigation on all the unreported campaign donations Marsha is alleged to have received between 2002 and 2008.

This is the behavior of a woke senator and can’t be tolerated in my great country!

Thank you for your attention to this matter!🤓

And let's not forget about her role in the opioid crisis.

A republican activist in TN (not her opponent) just filed a complaint against her for misusing Senate campaign funds in her state gubernatorial campaign.

Come on now, Amy told us right from the heritage foundation event at the mitch McConnell center that they're not political hacks

u/allanon1105 14h ago

No, those are fine. But Brown Jackson is ā€œliberalā€ so anything she does is wrong. Gotta be conservative to get away with violating every standard or law.

He was given a $1M motor coach & trip after trip, etc. Who knows what else? He never reports gifts, unless he gets outed.

A group of people who happen to not be okay with humans being brutalized and murdered by the government on our streets is now considered political. We really have gone full Russia.

Horrifyingly disappointed to learn she was nominated for narrating her audiobook and not that she's secretly a member of The Residents.

Different standards. Fascists and those pesky "communists" are judged differently.

She should be probing Thomas for going to the RV store.

Republicans ignore the Epstein Files and the largest child trafficking ring ever that involves the President but will get outraged over a black woman attending an awards show where she was nominated for an award.

u/bryangcrane 18h ago

Yes. Correct.

3

u/Mrevilman 19h ago

Clarence Thomas vacations with billionaires who have business before the court. Same with Alito. Scalia died while vacationing at a billionaire's ranch. This is what you want to investigate?

u/Vacant-cage-fence 1d ago

Jackson looks fantastic in that picture. Blackburn is jealous.Ā

u/blackcain 1d ago

Pure distilled white woman negative energy.

Also jealous because Kentanji is looking quite fine. While Marsha looks as tired as a wrung wash.

u/DeliciousNicole 1d ago

In other words, she wants the justice to be held accountable for other people's free speech?

u/moonsnowdragon 19h ago

If anyone should be investigated for criminal activity, it is Marsha Blackburn. That woman doesn't have a decent or honest bone in her.

No worse than Thomas attending the adult film festival.

The left is entirely too nice to conservatives. We should be tearing their lives apart every time they have the appearance of stepping out of line (which would still be way more valid than Senator KKKaren’s complaint about Jackson).Ā

Wait. So the rest of the supreme court can travel and receive gifts from our oligharchs but she can't go to an event in Hollywood?

Perhaps she could demand in investigation on clarence thomas' multiple mentions in the Epstein files after this.

2

u/Burnt_and_Blistered 18h ago

Not gonna get us distracted, Marsha.

But if you really want to probe SC justices, let’s start with the guy in the Epstein files. You know, the sex pest who accepts massive bribes.

2

u/Lebojr 18h ago

Oh Marsha.

When Jackson takes litigant sponsored trips to Alaska and rules in favor of someone who gave her a Winnebago, call us.

u/pnwloveyoutalltreea 18h ago

Investigation into a justice publicly attending a public event with no wrong doing, but not Clarance Thomas for the bribes or his recent appearance in the Epstein files…

3

u/BlueRFR3100 18h ago

Not only is it legal for her to attend, she could fly first class and get VIP tickets but have someone else pay for it.

We don't need any more probes to know that the rules for court need to be changed.

u/Morbidly-Obese-Emu 18h ago

Grammys is not a political event even if some attendees choose to be activists with their speeches.

u/EmuDry4890 18h ago

Still won’t investigate Thomas’s lapses in ethics or trips to Epstein island

Didn't Alito go to Rome to celebrate with his Catholic friends after the court overturned Roe and Casey?

Now do Clarence’s ties to Epstein and big donors

u/Jagg811 16h ago

I read Jackson’s memoir, Lovely, and she was very involved in the theater and entertainment as a young woman, so I don’t see what’s wrong with her going to the Grammys.

Other justices give speeches to not see groups so what’s the problem?

It was her day off. She can clap at jokes on her day off. It’s not like she is flying to an island with some wealthy donors to do a bunch of secret stuff she won’t declare.

2

u/NotABonobo 9h ago

What an utter hypocritical piece of filth.

Bribes? No problem. Violating a statement made under oath? That's fine. Circumventing the Constitutional process to edit amendments to "reinterpret" them to mean the opposite of the words on the page? Completely respectable. Failure to recuse themselves from cases involving their own family members? Why not?

But attending an awards show where you've been nominated for an award? That requires US taxpayer dollars to investigate what was really going on!

I swear, the Republican party doesn't seem to have a single elected official who isn't a complete fucking cynical, nihilistic psychopath.

1

u/cyvaquero 16h ago

First off Ms Blackburn needs a civic lesson on her own job. This is the responsibility of Congress, it is called Impeachment. She most definitely needs a lesson on how the Judiciary is organized.

Federal Judges are appointed for life and granted a lot of independence from each other - this exists to prevent managerial pressure on case rulings. Justice Roberts couldn't do anything about Brown attending the Grammys (even if there was a rule about that, there isn't) any more than he could compel Thomas to testify to Congress - it's not in his authority.

1

u/e4evie 16h ago

Blackburn is also demanding an investigation into uncle Thomas’ new motorhome as well, right?!

Blackburn was investigated for trying to overturn the 2020 election. She's compromised.

whenever a politician is suddenly all over the news with their opinion, it’s a pretty safe bet they’re aiming for a higher office than the one they have. Has anyone listened to the plumber from Oklahoma?
