GOP SCOTUS justices having ‘emotional support billionaires’ must end, Melissa Murray says

MSNBC legal analyst Melissa Murray joins MSNBC’s Ali Velshi to discuss how the Supreme Court “is so far off the rails that even Joe Biden has said it’s time for something to be done” and the significance that Democrats are ready to make the Court “part of their electoral discourse.”

Lobbying should be illegal (for Congress) and emotional support billionaires (for SCOTUS)—period!!

When Supreme Court make a ruling to protect someone that pays them is a crime. Has been, is now and must be! Same for Executive and Legislative branches !

One of the most disturbing things about Clarence Thomas is his attitude towards the public and towards elected officials. He has the look of contempt. It says, "You don't like me or what I do? I don't give a fock. There's nothing you can do about it."

On Harlan Crow’s taxes, his lists of owned assets should include Justice Thomas.

You don’t give someone $4million without expecting something back

It needs to be all federally appointed judges, not just SCOTUS

Simone Biles and Suni Lee won at the Olympics and proudly displayed the 🇺🇸.
SCOTUS Alito flew the 🇺🇸 upside down!

Why didn't we trade tRUMP in the prisoner exchange swap?

All excellent points she made. However, her characterization of the GOP judges having emotional support billionaires is cute, but let's call a spade a spade - these were BRIBES by them!

Velshi, thank you! Mellisa is brilliant on this subject.

[GeneTurner-ggyo]

I move to have these two crooked justices removed and replaced with Judge Luttig and Professor Tribe, Melissa would also make a great justice!

Biden could fix this mess just like President Roosevelt did during his time.

[romandevivo]

For any country of law such “support” should have never occurred in the first place.

[johnwatts]

Add 4 justices to the court make their opinions meaningless

[christianlohmann]

‘Emotional support billionaire” 😂 now I need one too because spilled my tea over my computer

[joerogain]

Clarence Thomas reminds me of Uncle Ruckus from the Boondocks.

[RWROW]

At what point will the people ignore this court?

[joerogain]

Clarence Thomas reminds me of Uncle Tom from Uncle Toms Cabin.

The last time our country passed a constitutional amendment was 1992. I fear that we have become far too divided for even common sense amendments like “no one is above the law not even the president” to pass. I’m not really sure where we go from here.
