Here's something. Ask each judge individually the question about Justice and Injustice in their courts. You may not get a straight line, but it would be interesting to hear the other judges that don't speak up shut up

When you been crooked for years, you cannot straight your line out. It will never become straight again. You need real changes to get us straight and narrow line. Other words, the judges are crooked. What are we going to do America about this?

So people of America you found out the judges are crooked what you going to do about it?

[@marvinmayo8516]

What the court is saying is stupid. One in the highest court should never receive a gift. A gift is like a suggestion to receive before or after your suggestion, the rest is called sucker move😊
