Originalism isn't extreme. "Living Document" Reinterpretistas are.
According to whom? And what has Crow gotten from this friendship? Bragging rights?
He's not an extrovert and prefers privacy. Why unecessarily open your life up so 2-bit leftwing "reporters" can sling mud if the (previous) rules didn't require it? But keep spinning "vast rightwing conspiracies" like Hillary liked to do.
He researched it with some peers and was advised that it could be excluded... of course he didn't want to be embarrassed (duh).
Well, no I didn't because you responded to a link that had nothing to do with Hunter - guess you didn't read it. There's nothing to support that Hunter's actions had any influence on his father, just as there's nothing to support that Crow has had any influence on Thomas' decisions.
He was exceedingly vague about whom he might have spoken to, as I've noted already. Did he have one of his eager law clerks write a short brief to excuse his conduct? Did he speak to someone involved with SCOTUS or some other court? Did he confer with the Justice of the Peace in Thunderbolt, Georgia? We simply don't know.
Or perhaps no one would care about his morality one way or the other if it weren't for the dick pics.
Nice try. It isn't the pics, it's the millions of dollars for "services" he has no ability to provide. From Burisma to CEFC. What was actually provided in exchange for these funds which were distributed among Biden family members?
He's not required to reveal who his friends and confidants are just because of conspiracy theorists' curiosity.
I responded to your weak deflection attempt. Hunter's sex addiction and drug problems are sordid side-shows to the blatant influence peddling which is the real story.
No. It's about the lavish gifts those friends give him. Whether the superyacht trips give certain people an opportunity to bend Thomas's ear, and whether or not those conversations affect his votes, it appears improper, and it provides an opportunity for certain wealthy parties to exert undue influence on a member of the nation's highest court.
Nor is it my job to indulge yours. Until there is proof the law has been broken, I don’t care who justice Thomas hangs with or spends time with on their yacht. Sorry I mean super yacht. I have no fantasy or wishful thinking in which the left break the law and get caught. No, that does not mean I think Justice Thomas broke any laws. Don’t get that twisted in your head. if anything my wishful thinking is that anyone from either side of the isle in positions of authority be on the up and up, but clearly that doesn’t happen.
Researched? What does that even mean? Why should he or anyone have to research anything here?
I was responding to your assertions that he did not reveal who had advised him about reporting the trips. He's not required to tell you or anyone else who's advice he seeks or takes. Much of the Biden administration appears improper but you aren't concerned about any of it.
Prior reporting requirements say otherwise regardless of what you or I think about it.
No. Thomas's interpretation of those rules was what said otherwise. He decided, after consulting a noted judge from the nation's leading wet t-shirt contests, that it was cool to stop reporting the info because he was starting to get heat for all the lavish gifts that he had been reporting.
The worth of your opinion is duly noted. After being hounded by aggressive leftwing press he found that he was not required to report what he was being hounded about. In other words, he found that he had no obligation to report these private activities.
Yes. Interpretation… For something like this; as simple as it gets! Again. This is stupid… Just as designed! Leave it to a lawyer and polarized-politics to defend such non-sense.
I wasn't there, but reportedly he asked people in the same gig...
This makes absolutely no sense. See above at #55. Also, why does it not matter anymore? Just because it was changed? What has changed to make it OK (not reporting) before and not anymore? Appearance is a concern now but wasn’t? As simple as that? Or?
Maybe research ex post facto law and the US Constitution before going any further.
Indeed you do. Would you like to submit a nomination for the 2023 World Superyacht Awards?
