Lawrence: If Alito were a congressman, he'd be heckling Biden with Marjorie Taylor Greene
MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell explains how both former presidents Bush gave us the worst Supreme Court justices, including Samuel Alito, who “disgraced himself” by heckling President Obama and whose silence about a second flag associated with the January 6th attack on the Capitol flying at his home “only amplifies the suspicion” that Alito is biased.

Just because Thomas accepts billionaire money from a white guy doesn't mean he wouldn't accept the same from a black guy. He seems more like an opportunist than a race denier/ hater. Justice Thomas just wants to make history, and he has. Unfortunately his children and family will bear his scars, and for that I am sad for them. I hope his family's name isn't scarred by his actions too deeply that it inhibits those that come after his generation. I hope we as voters make sure we don't allow another person of his opinion back into the Supreme Court.

In a more recent video (towards the end of it) on Brian Tyler's channel titled "Prosecutor takes on Supreme Court amid new scandal," Mr. Kirschner urges everyone to also file misconduct complaints (on the same website where you file against Cannon) against justices Alito and Thomas.

So what if they're impeached? How do you get a conviction? You don't. A total waste of time. What does need to happen is the Senate Judiciary Committee needs to immediately subpoena Alito and get an explanation for his outright call for armed insurrection by flying that "Appeal to Heaven" flag. Of course, Ayatollah Alito would simply ignore the subpoena, in which case the Senate must use its inherent contempt power and hold this traitor in contempt of Congress and have him detained until he cooperates.

No, we need him where he is. Obama wasn't meant to be kept in a straitjacket - he was born to be free.
excellent report!!
Alito having two flags says it all
How can Alito or Thomas judge Trump cases they would be disqualified as jurors??? No prosecutor would allow them on a jury because of their conflicts of interests!!!
This is an absolutely outstanding journalistic report and a professional presentation by Laurence O'Donnell - Please continue in this line - I'm sure your outstanding journalistic work is highly appreciated by so many more people. Your excellent journalistic work and dedication to democracy deserve appreciation and recognition.

@@suehowie152 yes, but the picture was taken three years ago! If it had been circulated more widely back then, maybe we wouldn't be at the place we are in this country. It's unthinkable how low the Roberts SCOTUS has sunk so quickly. And the entire country is the worse for it as a result.
Today I donated to President Biden's campaign that had a 600% match. It's the 5th time I've sent a contribution to Biden this year.
Lawrence, this was brilliant as usual!
Thank you so much for this incredibly important look-back of the devolution of the Supreme Court giving key context of the current Supreme Court, Alito & Thomas in particular. They have an obligation to recuse themselves.
Please get rid of that MGT!!!!!!!

*☀️Daily reminder☀️* *🔸️Updated🔸️* Concerning action that you, the US citizens, can take against judge Cannon. Not only her, but also justices Alito and Thomas: Glenn Kirschner, in a recent video on his channel titled *"Judge Aileen Cannon's Bias Is Showing,"* explains step-by-step how every concerned and angry American can file a judicial misconduct complaint form with the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals to insist that Cannon be removed from the case and a fair, impartial, and independent judge be assigned trump's federal case in Florida. *Update:* In a more recent video (towards the end of it) on Brian Tyler's channel titled *"Prosecutor takes on Supreme Court amid new scandal,"* Mr. Kirschner urges everyone to also file misconduct complaints (on the same website where you file againstCannon) against justices Alito and Thomas. One form per person. What do you have to lose, good people; *help make justice matter!!*

I slept through most of my American Government class in high school, admittedly, but no president should be able to appoint a Supreme Court justice, nor should there be any ideology associated with that appointment - not liberal nor conservative. I mean, judges are supposed to be impartial in all other courts. Why is the Supreme Court different? These justices shouldn't be given lifetime appointments, either. Who came up with this stuff? (The same people who invented the electoral college, I'm sure...)
I have sent an email to my Senator asking her to do what she can to REMOVE Alito and Thomas from the bench THEN to implement TERM LIMITS on the members of the Supreme Court.
