They'll recuse...for the right gift, in an appropriate size.

Due their ignorance, justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson should recuse themselves when the subject is constitutional law.

And those who refused recusal will continue to do so and continue to play roles in cases where they are wildly conflicted. Shame? Fuhgedaboudit. These bastards don't even blush.

Ah yeah just like Joe Biden ignored democracy and the ruling by SCOTUS that giving rich Harvard etc graduate college students a reprieve on their college loans and indebtedness did not pass Constitutional muster.

Democrats always ignore the rules of democracy. Their only mantra to get votes is simply that rich kids college education loans must be paid by non rich kids who work in trades.
