  1. It's encouraging to hear the Florida case should be completed before the 2024 general election (and Georgia, Alabama and Louisiana). Texas will take a bit more time. I wonder how it will shake out if the TX Legislature tries to flip the results in Houston county next year.

  2. ​ @Jake-pq3iz  The US has never been a pure democracy. There are no pure democratic governments in the world. We've always been a representative democracy.

Apparently, Trump isn't the only American who is above the law.

  9.  @JustChuck1982  Oh, I'm not disagreeing that ethics should and do exist, but there is no official code of ethics. The justices cannot violate what doesn't technically exist.

  10.  @Tick421  The extent of the abuse by the justices wasn't known then. That said, Sen Whitehouse has been calling out for an official code of ethics for years.

  11. ​ @SocratesINl  That's because blue states don't get taken to court for gerrymandering and violating the federal Voting Rights Act! Democrats play by the rules!
