I agree that corruption is rampant, and I firmly oppose all forms of it. I fully support the FBI’s holding Eric Adams and other officials accountable. We’re told that no one is above the law-yet Justice Clarence Thomas, despite receiving millions from Harlan Crow, faces no charges. If elected officials can be investigated and indicted, why should Supreme Court justices be exempt? No one, not even the highest judges in the land, should be beyond the reach of the law.

[@LearnGrowHealThrive]

Would you do this job? I know I wouldn't want it. That is the problem, the only people who go after these positions are the power-hungry, admiration seeking types. The psychologically healthy, morally balanced people don't want anything to do with politics. Maybe you're different, but it's not worth the money for all the trouble it is.

[@menssanoincorporesano]

​​​@@wolfmangoland7972 Supreme Court justices are not exempt. Congress can always impeach any federal judge, including SC justice. Considering the fact that no Congressman formally brought up impeachment despite the current political climate, it's possible that what you say is either just a rumor or greatly exaggerated.

[@ENCXBG1]

If the Feds are investigating him it means he stepped out of line with the party. Probably over his criticism of the Biden border immigration policy that is destroying his city. The campaign finance fraud is standard practice for the DNC. It is well documented how Act Blue was using identity fraud to funnel foreign money into Democrat campaigns through fictitious small donors. This is standard practice at this point. Acting like Eric Adams orchestrated thus is laughable.

The narcissists will ALWAYS double down because they cannot stand to lose face publicly. Narcissists...no matter how wealthy or poor, cannot tolerate the narcissistic injury of people discovering who they truly are, and they will... ...lie ...deny ...dupe ...intentionally deceive and obfuscate ...project what they've done onto innocent people ...shift blame onto others ...try to create a diversion to distract people to someone/something else ...turn the tables Just remember the scene in that old children's film The Wizard of Oz. The great and powerful oz was all smoke and mirrors and the person projecting that false person was a sniveling, scared, frail little man who was afraid of being exposed. Narcissists fear exposure...and the loss of public admiration that comes alone with it...more than anything. Most (not all) would rather die than be exposed for who they truly are, and lose the admiration of others. It's as true for donald trump as it is for others.
