Such language described by Orwell is called doublespeak. It is explained by William Lutz, author of the book “Doublespeak”, as language which “makes the bad seem good, the negative appear positive, the unpleasant appear attractive or at least tolerable. It is language that conceals or prevents thought.”

B-Man Posted May 5 Posted May 5 REMINDER: The usual PPP suspects whine and spin their 'takes' on Justice Thomas, then howl in protest when the left's organized assault on the Supreme Court is documented. No matter, their complaints will get them nowhere, despite their spittle-ridden posts. Not ONE example of a case that his opinion has been 'compromised' on has been given. Why is that ? Don't bother, there isn't any. . 2 1

Don't bother, there isn't any. . the justices unanimously signed a document explaining the rules of ethics. There was no "slamming" of D senators in the signed letter. You and the writer of this article are mischaracterizing it at best, lying at worst. The letter in no way implies that they unanimously agree that all members are following them. The chief justice's refusal to appear before a senate subcommittee based on the premise that few other justices have appeared before congress is weak but within his rights. This is the case example I alluded to: https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/21a272_9p6b.pdf. Others have cited other examples. Watch the hearings and find out.....

B-Man Posted June 24 Posted June 24 The ‘Fix’ Is in With the Latest Attack on Clarence Thomas A report from a self-styled non-ideological Supreme Court watchdog is filled with errors and omissions. By Mark Paoletta It’s late in the Supreme Court’s term, which means it’s hunting season for the justices’ detractors. As usual, Clarence Thomas is a prime target. Fix the Court, which styles itself a nonpartisan advocate for “non-ideological ‘fixes’ ” to make the judiciary “more open and more accountable”—released a chart purporting to show that Justice Thomas has received almost $4.2 million in gifts and “likely gifts” between 2004 and 2023. The other 16 justices who served during that period, according to the chart, received a combined total of less than $600,000 in gifts. That includes a mere $3,150 for Justice Anthony Kennedy, $55,014 for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and $15,500 for Justice Stephen Breyer. Can that be true? No. A review of Fix the Court’s claims shows multiple errors and deceptions: {snip} In an August 2023 story, ProPublica claimed Justice Thomas took “a voyage on a yacht around the Bahamas.” That trip never happened. When a lawyer for the yacht’s owner submitted a letter to that effect to the Senate Judiciary Committee, ProPublica quietly appended an “update” to its article without acknowledging the error. ProPublica this month published an article titled “Harlan Crow Provided Clarence Thomas at Least 3 Previously Undisclosed Private Jet Trips, Senate Probe Finds.” As it has done before, the organization failed to cite the Judicial Conference’s 2012 ruling that these trips weren’t subject to disclosure. Like Fix the Court, ProPublica aims to smear disfavored justices, not to report honestly on the court. https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-fix-is-in-with-the-latest-attack-on-clarence-thomas-scotus-c64453aa?st=0gmnqgus2hurke0 1
B-Man Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Justice Thomas: "In this case, there has been much discussion about ensuring that a President 'is not above the law.' But, as the Court explains, the President’s immunity from prosecution for his official acts is the law... Respecting the protections that the Constitution provides for the Office of the Presidency secures liberty. In that same vein, the Constitution also secures liberty by separating the powers to create and fill offices. And, there are serious questions whether the Attorney General has violated that structure by creating an office of the Special Counsel that has not been established by law. Those questions must be answered before this prosecution can proceed. We must respect the Constitution’s separation of powers in all its forms, else we risk rendering its protection of liberty a parchment guarantee." 1
Tiberius Posted July 1 Posted July 1 Two of these justices should have recused themselves. Just no ethics, justice or rule of law in this. 1
