credited to Mrs. Roberts for placing partners at law firms — including $690,000 in 2012 for one such match.

So it becomes an issue - 11 years later. Hmmm.

Just like everyone else in DC? Can we talk about China Mitch’s wife?

Our entire government and the political parties are nothing but one giant grift.

...”At the law firms.”

Apparently all over the political spectrum.

“ Boston lawyer, argued that the justices should be required to disclose more information about their spouses’ work”

So nothing improper actually happened it was just a hit piece written to look that way

How clever. Not

I’m not so sure I agree with that.

I do think that this is an example of how the Democrats and the left put on a full offensive effort. Trying to take out a Justice while a Democrat has the ability to nominate the successor. Likewise, I think that the push to eliminate Santos (which would lead to a Democrat holding the seat at least until a special election) is a part of an effort to chip away at the House margin. GOP House members in states with Democratic Governors, especially those with ill health or other vulnerabilities, should be especially careful. These guys play for keeps.

It’s a big nothing burger, just like the brouhaha about Clarence Thomas’s wife.

The Dems are grasping at straws.

So they’re going to investigate a Paul Pelosi’s stock ‘investments’?

Awesome!

Agree but I think it's kind of a mistake picking Roberts. He's on their side.

It was her job. Was she supposed to quit working?

So what if they argued before the court? She didn’t tell
them what to argue, what cases to take or to refuse.

Justices still had to weigh any information presented
and provide opinions.

This is total nonsense.

The Left is pushing too far. I’m not a big fan of
Roberts, but this tactic of charging everyone assumed
to be a Conservative with trumped up charges needs to
become actionable before some courts.

Those bringing up these cases should be charged with
contempt of court, for trying to abuse the judicial
system for political purposes.

That’s all this is > IMO.

This is the same story as why Trump got blamed for hiring people who were part of the Swamp. All available and qualified people are from the Swamp. The Swamp either eats or spits out all newbies in D.C.

Not a fan of Roberts, but this is another attempt by the Left to remove a more right-leaning justice from the court. They tried it with Clarence Thomas (and probably still are), but without success. The Left never stops, while the Right never gets started.

Roberts is protected from all sides.

He regularly dines with prominent Senators and he Controls FISA.

He’s totally untouchable.

Everyone knew the “Investigation” of the leak was Fake as a Wax three dollar bill.

The Communist Purge Continues To Grow Exponentially & Nothing Is Being Done About It!

The Biden cabal is desperate to replace Roberts before the election...
Next on their "purge" list will be Thomas' wife...

Evil never stops...

All the while the doltish serfs continue to graze blissfully...

Hmmm...

those who WORKED at SCOTUS, supported the
Chief Epstein-Maltese Justice to attack POTUS.
“Eleven months before the Senate impeachment trial exposed an unprecedented level of political savagery,
Waxman quietly prepared for the worst.
He reached out to two other former Solicitors General, Walter Dellinger
and Donald Verrilli, who served as the Clinton
and the Obama Administrations’ advocates, respectively,
before the Supreme Court.

By April, they had formed a small swat team to coordinate with the Biden campaign.
They called themselves the Three Amigos,
but the campaign referred to them as SG3.
Their goal: safeguarding the election”

This is TREASON and they should pay the ultimate price
for STEALING THE ELECTION FROM 80 MILLION PATRIOTS.
