      They set up immunity for themselves practically too by not agreeing to their own ethics. . Clarence should be barred because of claiming he had no idea his wife was connected to the election denial allegations and Jan 6 bs..and just for being misleading avoidance and deceitful... among other things... 2 of the justices blaming their wives for political things too ... grounds for divorce in my book .. I couldn't stay around any man or anyone blaming me for such B's just to remain in a certain lifestyle or for any reason... I wouldn't need him around... find a way to take care of myself no matter what. Money is not better than honesty , love, trust and so much like being honorable and good character .. what some people value is beyond comprehension sometimes ... some of it you can't depend on, some of it doesn't last forever

      On the other hand, that also provides the contra argument - that THE ONLY WAY to provide the necessary limitation of dictatorial power is by impeachment! That process is far more sensitive to random misuse brought on by the quirks of democracy - the relatively frequent (and healthy) change to the balance of Congress - where the detailed rules (aka Federal Laws) are made, after considered debate! The Constitution provides the fundamental guidelines, but it's Law that specifies the detailed rules! And it's Law that sets the actual boundaries (with Trials being used to measure incidents against those rules)!
      Democracy is really a pretty fragile state, that must be protected, quirks and all, from the dictatorial attacks by the likes of Trump! Fortunately, it does have the tools and practitioners (Law, the Constitution et al) to do so! I'm sure it will succeed - in spite of the present attacks!

      he has no facts - - - Each month, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) issues Congress’ monthly fiscal report card by cataloging recent federal spending and revenues; signaling to the American people what those updated totals mean for our nation’s subsequent economic health.

      Today, CBO released its Monthly Budget Review for July 2023.

      Key Takeaway: In the first 10 months of FY 2023 the deficit has amounted to a staggering $1.6 trillion. This is $954 billion (or 131 percent) higher than the same point last year. In just 10 months, the FY 2023 deficit already exceeds last year’s full year deficit by $241 billion.
      Then Versus Now: Compared to CBO’s May 2023 baseline, the 2023 deficit is now projected to be $1.7 trillion, about $200 billion higher than the May projection of $1.5 trillion.
      Washington’s Spending Addiction: Spending is $473 billion (or 11 percent higher) and revenues are $418 billion (or 10 percent lower).
      Economic Red Flags:
      $1.7 Trillion. CBO expects the deficit will reach $1.7 trillion in 2023, about $200 billion higher than its May 2023 projection of $1.5 trillion.
      Skyrocketing Interest. The largest spending increase was for interest payments on the debt, which increased by $146 billion (or 34 percent) compared to this time last year.
      Student Loan Bailout Chaos Hurt the Economy. Spending for the Department of Education increased by $91 billion (or 57 percent), due to President Biden’s student loan bailouts.
      Never-ending Economic Uncertainty. FDIC spending increased by $52 billion (such spending was negative last year), as the agency dealt with bank failures in the spring.
      Bidenflation Harming Social Security. Social Security spending increased by $111 billion (or 11 percent), impacted by high inflation.
      Health Care Spending Continues to Climb. Medicare spending increased by $104 billion (or 18 percent). Similarly, Medicaid spending increased by $29 billion (or 6 percent).
      To Make Matters Worse: CBO’s monthly budget review for July is further compounded by Fitch Ratings’ August 1 downgrade of the U.S. credit rating from AAA to AA+ for just the second time in our nation’s history.
