OUCH! Chief Justice Roberts Delivers a SCOTUS Smackdown to Shameless Dem Senators

Doug P. | 3:20 PM on May 30, 2024

Ever since the New York Times ran with the "Alito's flag" story (that the Washington Post passed up on years ago) the Democrats have insisted that the conservative Supreme Court recuse himself from any cases involving January 6th.

Because they're awful and shameless, Democrat Sens. Whitehouse and Durbin have combined their swamp scum powers and have been referring to flags once spotted at Alito's house and vacation home as "MAGA battle flags" (by that ridiculous definition San Francisco was "MAGA Country" until just recently).

Whitehouse and Durbin are hoping nobody's ever heard of that whole "separate but equal branches" thing and have been threatening to regulate the Supreme Court and have been demanding a meeting with Chief Justice John Roberts:

Let’s be clear: Chief Justice Roberts could establish an enforceable code of conduct today… if he wanted to.

But, he’s refused.

So long as he does, we will continue our investigation and pursue an enforceable code of conduct.

Maybe these clowns should focus on the code of conduct of their own branch of government.

Roberts has responded and told Whitehouse and Durbin to pound sand, but in a somewhat more polite way:

Chief Justice Roberts responds to Senators Durbin and Whitehouse. Thanks, but no thanks, to a meeting. “… would in inadvisable.” pic.twitter.com/nlht2GF4TC
