Certainly not as egregious as some of the news coming out of Thomas’ and Alito’s camps, but this is still not a great look. Seriously, how hard is it to at least maintain the appearance of impartiality as a SC Justice? Can’t they write books to enrich themselves after their tenure?
Really just seems like blurring the likes of what assistants are allowed to do. There’s no kickbacks or anything for her work on the court. Public speaking and book tours are typical. Her tenure doesn’t have an end date.
I cannot be bothered to care about this when her colleagues are violating these principles at exponentially higher levels and the last Presidential administration practically uses the office for nothing but self enrichment. Strengthen ethics rules across the board so none of it happens again. If not this goes to the bottom of the list of ethics problems.
