Thank you for staying on top of this and keeping us informed ❣️ The legitimacy of the Supreme Court rests on the rule of law. When decisions appear driven more by ideology than consistent constitutional principles, public confidence erodes. Accountability and ethics matter for every branch of government. These justices need to be impeached convicted and removed based on the corruption. Then go to tRump then those enablers in Congress. Impeach convict remove imprison.
