Alito can't save Trump from sentencing. He just made the Supreme Court's credibility issue worse

[Quiet Em]

Alito’s entire job is measured judgment. It shouldn’t be asking too much for him to exercise common sense — especially when the court’s standing is at its lowest point ever with the American people.

Yet again and again, as the conservative justice accepts luxury vacations from right-wing donors and grants interviews to lawyers with cases pending before the court, Alito fails to meet even that simplest standard. By now, it’s hard to interpret as anything other than a justice’s contemptuous refusal to be held to any rules at all.

This is imperious nonsense. Americans know it. Confidence in the judiciary has plummeted over the last four years, to record lows, across party lines, and at such speed that it can only be best compared to the collapse of trust experienced in dictatorships and banana republics. An unelected, conservative supermajority, with lifetime appointments, no ethics code, no accountability and even less self-awareness make the rules for us but abide by none themselves.

I have no faith in the Supreme Court at this point. Alito should be removed.
