- MSNBC's Lawrence O'Donnell says a recent spate of exposés around alleged ethical misconduct by Supreme Court justices and their spouses has thrusted the Court into crisis as Chief Justice John Roberts declines an invitation by the Senate Judiciary Committee to testify at an upcoming hearing regarding the ethical rules that govern the Justices of the Supreme Court and potential reforms to those rules.

I think we can all agree a lack of ethics oversight over ANY person or body in power, is pretty dumb at best, and incredibly dangerous at worst.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Yep... The Real question is how did it get to the point that it is both now?!
What ethics?
Brilliant comment I totally agree
@@fiddlersthree8463 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 yes!
Please don’t let up on this Justices. They lost the “Honorable” before their name as far as I’m concerned. 😡😡😡
Truth 🎉
There’s nothing honorable about them!
I give MR EMHOFF and MRS HARRIS full credit for their HIGH ETHICAL STANDARDS.
Can they define what a woman is?
@Billy Barnes You can't, can you dear? But I bet you look sweet in drag!
@@billybarnes1763 🤡
Kiddos for them
@@perrywalton2464 So even you can’t define what a woman is?
We all know that Harlan Crow would never be friends with Clarence Thomas if he wasn't a Supreme Court justice.
why not?
@Paul Wilson Why, suuuure, Paul, if he was just some random black guy, I'm sure he would be taking him on all expenses paid luxury vacations and paying for his mother's home!
A man with Hitler memorabilia being friends with a black man?? Man bites dog!!
They all should should resign 😢
He is literally their puppet.... he thinks he's one of them.
Not only should those judges be impeached and released of their duties, but they should also be criminally charged for Corruption. Politicians in leading or governing positions should be demanded to uphold the law and ethics as sworn while taking the oath of office.
When there is no accountability for corrupt/unethical behavior, it will keep happening; then the public becomes desensitized to it.
George Santos is planning on running for re-election, because he was allowed to get away with multiple cases of fraud and allegedly theft.
Their strategy is to wait for another big news story to take the spotlight off them, since they know that the public will move on to that story.
I have no doubt if this had happened in England or France or several other European countries, they would be forced to resign.
A Justice appointed by a Democratic president would have also likely resigned.
Yeah that would sure get all these politicians to act right and give us a chance to keep democracy. GOP is trash.
They are above the law
I'm wondering if there is a tax issue. Was Thomas's mother reporting the free rent as income? She should have been
They are above the law at best of times, at worst they simply make the laws to fit the crime.
White collar crimes pays, always has : the enforcement is at best inexistant, at worst complicit (banking and regulations and academia for example). The cases are also always difficult to prosecute, by design
Bravo to Doug Emhof!! Finally one honest man in Washington!
And woman. I am certain that Kamala Harris had a say in that decision. Good for her.
It's the country's benefit to have Doug Emhoff TEACHING LAW to young people... ETHICS IN ACTION!!!
If my wife got a job as vice president I'd quit my day job too lol.
I totally agree’!!!!
Harris and her husband have a much higher ethics standard than most of the recent politicians; the extremist scotus justices have the least, lower even than a corrupt politician
Thank you very much for acknowledging the good people, the honest people. There are so many unsung heroes. How refreshing, thank you!
Agree. Knowing positive people and events in politics is what sets our expectations.
THANK YOU CAMILLE HARRIS, AND HUSBAND TOOK A STEP BACK, TO QUIT HIS JOB TO SUPPORT HIS WIFE. . . DOING THE RIGHT THING!!!❤❤
THANK YOU
LAWRENCE!!!!
THEY DID THE RIGHT THING!!
HE SUPPORTS HIS WIFE. . .
THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA !!❤❤❤
I’m so glad to hear you hold up someone who actually has an impeccable ethical standard to the point of quitting a very high paying job to ensure their spouse’s integrity (what a concept!)
The hint of impropriety in government positions seems to be disdained by at least 3 of our Supreme Court Justices - they see any “hint” of impropriety as NOT ENOUGH impropriety.
There ought to be a law…
you act like its a republican thing... its not
Agreed, and the supremes should encourage new laws and regulations that ensure they do their jobs properly.
What I find most discouraging is that it has gotten to this point....the rich dont have enough, they have to corrupt and plunder every governing agency?
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
The problem with the supreme court, isn't that they don't have ethics rules,the problem is that some of the justices, have no personal ethics!
Exactly
When unethical justice says a word of "respectfully" it means "contempt" to the people of the country. No one is above the laws. Even Chief Justice is not above the law.
Will the Republicans impeach him?
@@donnabrockbank8296 No, because the right holds the same contempt for the country that the Court and the Congress does.
Obviously there are people above the law. We’ve been seeing it for the past 7 years.
By the facts, they are 😖

At a time when most US citizens are struggling to stay afloat, I find these justices behavior and lifestyles to be extremely distasteful .
It's treasonous...period
Let them eat cake
I don’t understand, the justices job isn’t to do anything with how the citizens struggle…that’s why we have these things called legislatures, it’s their job to apply the worries of the people towards law.
ESP the NFT Clarence Thomas all of the gop appointed judges all compromised
You should've stay in School and become one, instead of whining.
This is why the justices need to be vetted extremely , and also their must be term limits! Not have lifetime positions . It’s ridiculous that these no goods are getting away with this garbage!
Term limits would make the politics worse. Of this job, i mean...it would allow them to be packed more often, and more beholden to the senators ( political entities) for the job.
Yes. The "conservatives" Justices misled or outright lied during confirmation. There needs to be a requirement that all judges and justices nation wide abide by the same ethical standards.
The are vetted extremely, but if the deciding votes are from corrupt, then corruption holds no bar.
America has fallen. RIP.
@@DaleHartley in a lot of countries judges have a mandatory retirement age. In my country judges must retire when they turn 70.
That's because the greed just drips off the Justices and their wives.
Who do they think they are? The ruling elite?!
Thank you Lawrence for bringing this significant story about Mr Emhoff to light. A shocking juxtaposition to the spouses of the supreme courts.
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
I think we need to skip ahead to the consequences of this. Why should I follow any ethics when the highest court in the land doesn't? I'm simply following their lead.
@Diego O’Land. My mother never let me get away with that argument when I was a child. And in the words of Elijah Cummings, we are better than this.
Yes, when DT won in 2016, I wondered whether his lying would give the ok for others to lie....and it did.
@@libbyworkman3459 Like high profile professional athletes, the justices need to set a moral example. When the example is: Grab what you can, it's not lost on a large segment of the population.
@@leagarner3675 Yep, Mark Meadows, Bill Barr, Steven Miller, etc etc.
@@diegooland1261 I agree. That is why sunshine laws are such a good thing. Making what is happening very public is making these justices squirm. For instance, I knew nothing about Chief Justice Roberts’ wife. Now I do.
We also need to hold our Supreme court judges liable for their mistakes and lies they have told under oath.
I love seeing you everywhere I am at Leo
@@AIChameleonMusic What?
what mistakes and lies?
Lies like the big one told by the last 3 confirmed conservative judges. All who said during their confirmation hearings that Roe v Wade was settled law.
Absolutely!
Term limits for Supreme Court Justice.
AGREED!!
No. The judiciary isn’t a legislative branch. Continuity is the hallmark of American juris prudence…anything else is a paper Tiger.
@@acbower4468 Then let's add a few more Scrotes, I mean Justices, to offset the 3 we know are POS
EXPAND THE COURT TO 13 OR BETTER - 15.
AND they must sign agreements to a Code of Ethics law including Conflicts of Interest rules that is punishable by termination of their seat in the SCOTUS. NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW INCLUDING SCOTUS!
Has anyone noticed the look of pride the 2nd gentleman has for his wife? The husband of the DA had the same look especially in the photo where he was reaching out to hold his wife's hand. These two men setting such examples warms the heart.🤗
I would have pride for her also. She worked her way up the old fashion way...slept to the top. 2nd husband is a prostitute.
Willie Brown had the same look .
Again, so well done, Lawrence! Keep speaking the truth.
As a retired DOD employee, I can testify that we had high ethical standards. The standard is to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. I wouldn't accept even a cup of coffee or donut, because it could look bad. It seems that one standard applies to those on the lowest levels, but not on the highest levels.
Indeed 🎉😮
exactly.
Appearances can be deceiving
Typical in a two tier "justice" system. That's what we have. When will we all realize it and demand change?
So how is your 401(k) set up? Do you have property? Do you have other investments like the overwhelming majority of Americans in this country?
Term Limits. That’s what is needed
Justice is needed
and ethics rules subject to removal and/or criminal penalty if violated -- for all judges and justices..
You have to love Lawrence and his presentation.❤
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
The fact that we call it the “Supreme Court” says it all. That puts the judges on the highest pedestal. It doesn’t make them the most moral people. It makes them untouchable.
Powerful message. Well said, indeed.
Thank you!!
Please, Lawrence, never stop talking about these bold criminals, who are so very comfortable flaunting their nose at the people and the law they took an oath to uphold.
Criminals in flowing robes. Watching the Supreme Court is like watching "Caligula" over and over again...
An oath is only words.
It's what is behind these words that matters.
It would seem that some people don't care about what matters.
It may be that all the decisions made by the Supreme Court should be reviewed ...
Good luck with that then
It's his talking about the ethics of VP Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff that's so important and doesn't get coverage elsewhere.
Thumbing his nose - they're not all doing it.
The American people have watched them lie.
They should be removed / impeached
For the lies they told to get the job.
All of us would be fired if we lied at our job interviews.
Lawrence is one of the best if not the best commentator of current news today. Smart, clear explanation and no nonsense opinion.
Eh I like Mehdi Hasan
@Alex Nifong me too, Mehdi is so good in interviews, he doesn't let anyone not answer his questions...he pressure them 'til they fold
Yes, this is brilliant commentary by Lawrence.
Yes, this is brilliant commentary by Lawrence.
Tucker is better by far.
Toss. Them. Out.
You mean lock them up. Violations of ethics rules and filing false reports is 18 USC 1001 which is lying to the government
Thank you Lawrence for highlighting the high standard of ethics of Mr. Harris. I had no idea of his decision to prevent any ethical impropriety by changing his occupation during his wife's prestigious role as Vice President of the United States. And I'm sure he's not the first or only straight shooter to stand tall and clean under the scrutiny of the press or ill natured political forces who will not stop trying to annihilate that which is good. Kudos.
I just love Mr. O'Donnell's presentation, I cannot get enough of his show. He is truly such a breath of fresh accurate air. He truly hates injustice. Good for him.
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
Kamala Harris & Doug Emhoff are a couple to totally look up to. He's an amazing example of how a man/husband should act, strength, etc. They both deserve so much more credit than they have & will receive.
I TOTALLY agree!
Shannon you are so right.
For some reason, ppl strongly dislike her. I have stopped watching news during the election, I could not take it anymore, so I plugged myself out. But from the bits and pieces that I get, the President is getting old and if not for his VP, who is disliked a lot, his age would not be such an issue for the people who tend to vote Dems.
Kamala going down on willie brown. Good example of ethics.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'm so glad Lawrence is back he always explains everything so perfectly
Not really.
Yes he does
I really miss Lawrence when he takes time off. He's just EXCELLENT!
Was he on vacation?
The naive reason this is happening is that we really thought only the best of the best could attain these positions and there would be no need to worry about the standards, values, and ethics of those in these positions.
Not naive anymore.
Judges are appointed based mainly on the religious beliefs (e.g., pro and against abortion), not on the basis of who is best. Two other countries that do the same are Saudi Arabia and Afghanistan.
The highest court should be held to the highest standards for the privilege of their lifetime appointment. They should have the integrity to uphold the honor bestowed upon them.
Every one in the world has rules of some kind, so why oh why do the chief 'injustices have no rules. It mak3s no sense.
Thanks Lawrence for this commentary about a lack of ethical rules and regulations for SCOTUS. At this point several of them are actually ‘above the law’
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
Great segment Lawrence. What a stark parallel between the case of the Supreme Court justices Roberts & Thomas and the highest ethical standards of the spouses of Supreme Court Justice K. Jackson-Brown and VP Harris.
These SUPREME Court Judges who have benefited unethically think they can do it because they think they are SUPREME to anyone else, and the system protects them as they have the job for life ! WHAT A JOKE OF A SYSTEM !!
Clean up the Biden crime family first???????????
Thanks Lawrence, for your insight as always. I can understand why the Washington DC press will not carry Kam and Doug story of adherence to ethics, what attracts readers and watchers of news is scandals and violence. Hats off for the VP family.
The court has lost the respect, deference, and admiration of the American public. They will not gain it back in your lifetime. This is how much irreparable damage that Thomas has done. If his peers do not step up soon; the entire justice system will suffer the same general perception. To save their institution, other justices at all levels of the judiciary must step forward and restore public confidence in their institution. Otherwise, they will be collectively perceived similarly to Thomas.
Democrat Hunter Biden appeared in an Arkansas court Monday in his bid to get his child support payments lowered, and it didn’t go well for him. The judge lambasted Joe’s son and his legal team for being slippery in providing his financial information and income.
Democrat Biden was ordered by the judge last week to appear in person for today’s hearing and all future ones after she had accused him of delaying the litigation. On Monday she chastised his democrat team for redacting too much info. Judge Holly Meyer rebuked the 53-year-old’s legal team during the two-hour proceedings, saying they wrongly concealed details of filings that had already been submitted to the court as part of the ongoing legal saga.
“The ability to redact is somewhat being abused,” the judge told democrat Hunter’s attorneys before ordering them to refile some of those papers. It wasn’t immediately clear exactly what financial information was included in the filings.
Democrat Hunter appeared in a Batesville court as he seeks to reduce his monthly payments for the cute 4-year-old daughter he fathered with gorgeous Lunden Roberts. The attorney for Lunden Roberts-Hunter’s ex-girlfriend and the mother to their precious child-filed a 12-page discovery motion last week accusing the first son of putting on an act:
Democrat Biden claims to be nothing more than a Yale educated attorney/artist who is somewhat financially destitute and needs his child support adjusted. However, for an artist living on meager means, Mr. Biden is living lavishly. He travels the world on the safest and most comfortable airplane in existence - Air Force One, for free.
Now the judge wants to know what Hunter’s art is actually worth, but was frustrated by the Biden team’s lack of transparency:
Meyer on Monday ordered Hunter to answer additional written questions about his money - including investments, his art sales and other financial transactions - after Roberts’ attorney Clinton Lancaster claimed he had so far provided “incomplete answers.”
But Hunter’s attorneys hit back, saying the genius first son didn’t know the identities of the buyers as part of a purported arrangement to ensure they were unable to “influence” his father’s administration.
Hunter and Roberts will be required to sit for a deposition in mid-June to answer questions under oath, the judge ordered.
The battle between the two began in 2019 when Roberts claimed she was pregnant with Hunter’s child. Being Hunter Biden, he denied it, but a paternity test proved him wrong, and now he’s on the hook for what his lawyers say are child support payments totaling $720,000 a year unless he can convince the judge to lower them.
Democrat Hunter has never met his cute youngest daughter, 4-year-old Navy Joan Roberts, and last week president Joe Biden refused to even acknowledge her existence by claiming that he only has six grandchildren, when in reality he has seven !@!@!
There are good folks 😀with ethics and There are tRump like people that reside in a ethical vacuum!
I doubt any will "step up."
That 💩 has to change.
What the supreme court is tainted need to get rid of some of them. Wow 🤩
YEP

How?
No one questioning the ethics of every SCOTUS being a millionaire? All have Wall Street portfolios.

Imagine being the first supreme court group to ever choose NOT to show up for being the possible FORGERS of a document that we WILL eventually get, and the people that caused the need for the document, will be remembered in history for the role they had.
huh?
@Paul Wilson we have a current need for restrictions on Supreme Court justices. Since they're no longer working in the interest of the "greater American good".
Like gun laws, and progressive laws. And they're showing more and more why these restrictions are needed.
Thanks for bringing that up.
I’m one of those people that didn’t notice.
You nailed once again.
The only crisis of the Supreme Court at this time is actually a crisis of Congress. There aren't ethics rules, in writing, because they serve at the full discretion of Congress. If they fail to perform in any of their duties it is Constitutionally required that Congress remove the justice. It is up to Roberts to oversee their actions but not to sanction any "bad behaviour", only Congress can do that. And Congress has never been more inactive than they are today.
Excellent example of what the right way is, I hope you keep talking about this more!!!!
In America "Law & Order " and " justice " is unfortunatly is determined by your bank account.
It also helps to have a few low life POS friends in high office.
I wish you were wrong but, all too often, that does seem to be the case.
True!
Law sometimes comes with order, but at other times they do not go together. The trite jingoistic phrase 'Law and Order' is used by gaslighting politicians in order to get votes.
'Law and Order' is not necessarily a good thing. Think Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Xi. Oppressive regimes always impose strict order to enforce laws intended to subjugate people.
Think Trump, DeSantis, Huckabee-Sanders, Lake, Abbott...
Welcome to MONEY America.
Another excellent episode and guest Lawrence! Thanl you! 😁🍀🍀
AND THEY HAVE ALL BEEN GETTING AWAY WITH THIS FOR YEARS. They should be called "THE UNTOUCHABLES"

Most judges collect 3 different state pensions for presiding court in multiple towns even though each town usually has a judge. State tax funded pensions. Tax funded pensions should be limited to ONE.
When are we *not* in crisis over ignorance?
Subpoena chief Justice Roberts before the committee and force his hand to choose between attending or having a supreme court justice squash the subpoena or if the first justice honors the subpoena having the full court quash the subpoena in the broad light of day.
Let it be done in broad sunlight that the supreme court defied Congress by quashing the subpoena of its own member. It's own chief justice.
Fortune favors the bold
@@scene2much that might work if the dems had the majority. With present GOP forget any lawfulness. They will just ignore this.
Right!
The USA is one of the only countries i know that actively tries to keep the citizens dumbed down and higher education financially out of reach while pushing them to be religious and making laws based on those myths... well besides the middle-east which you can see that more than 50% of their population (women) are kept in a perpetual state of religious slavery under a man's rule. which is what the republicans want for the USA.
Perhaps it's time to address that widespread ignorance...
Ignorance is the currency of the Traitorous Republicans
They should be held accountable!!!

Another Game 7 Highlight Slam Dunk winner piece. Thank you Lawrence. Someday, because of pieces like this, we will change for the better.
its not an ethics rules problem its an ethics problem.
Absolutely 💯
Nailed it!
And it should actually be made a LEGAL problem. In our modern American PLUTOCRATIC KLEPTOCRACY, ethics are a JOKE to the rich and powerful, and even our LAWS are insufficient to INDICT, PROSECUTE AND IMPRISON the likes of Trump, Murdoch, Thomas etc.

Amen.
We all know that republicans have zero ethics!

Term Limits Are A Must!!!
I'm so frustrated and tired of these crooks getting "exposed" and nothing will ever be done about it. I've always thought that sc justices having lifetime appointments is the craziest thing and should not exist
The rich and political ARE above the law.
@@selftaopath it is time for us American citizens to end that.
No where in the constitution does it refer to Lifetime appointments, only for good behavior, whatever that means. But for many of us who post on various forums, sites and the like, good behavior, is not being in a long time running scandal, failing to comply with the laws that pertain to the judges, not lying to congress during confirmation, and the list goes on.
@@spir5102 How? What's the plan?
@@selftaopath to be honest, I don’t know. I’ve never seen anything like this in my lifetime. I think every time we get a chance to speak out, to post comments on RUclips, to make RUclips videos, to support those Congress members who are trying to do the right thing, just a public outcry can do a lot of good. Whenever I see a brave Congress member, usually Democrat, speak out, like Senator White House, I try to send them an email to support them.
and this is the living proof that we _need_ oversight. _everywhere._ because when left to our own devices, we show that we're willing, able, and likely to behave irresponsibly. And it's also been proved that no position of power is exempt from that possible corruption.
It's the Chief Justices responsibility, and if he's not willing to do it, it's Congress's responsibility.
When there is no one to carry out justice for the citizens, they will eventually carry out justice themselves.
Sovereignty comes from the people, and the exercise of it is given to the State. No King rules against the will of the people; they can only rule with the consent of the people.
When the State fails the people, individuals will reclaim their sovereignty and reshape their community as they see fit. It will not be pleasant. The rich will die and the poor will take what they want.
Hopefully.
What decision has been made that would of been different had these private business deals not been done
I could not have said it better!!😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
i hope so
Increase the number of justices.
How about impeachment? Then replace them.

Increase to the same number of Appeals Courts, 13.
President Trump , got three picks , Biden zero , Vote Trump , he will get one more pick
Too many Republicans in Congress.
Lawrence it’s serious disturbing
We need to add more judges to this court . It’s corrupt to the core
The Dems would need to win back the house, and gain a supermajority in the senate because the GOP will never do it!
The Supreme Court used to have public supreme trust. That trust was based on ethical expectations of those honored. But the honor has left the building and the shame is stinking the justices.
Lawrence isn't the most hard-hitting journalist, the sharpest wit, the flashiest presenter with the number one guests. Sometimes he over-eggs his points and labors them. But this - if you pay attention, he can occasionally be, quietly and profoundly, the most extraordinary commentator you'll see anywhere in the news industry. Don't under estimate him or overlook where he goes. Not that he'll ever see this, but respect, Lawrence, all the way from London.
The Supremely Corrupt Court
Bullseye 🎯 🎯 🎯 RIGHT
So, what your saying is that if these business deals didn’t happen, rulings would be different? Is that your stance?
The burrito supreme court
Mr EmHoff is also a wonderful example of how to support your wife in HER career!
Thank you for telling the Truth
Thank you so much, Lawrence, that you give credit to Doug Imhoff and Kamala Harris by reporting about the great moral integrity and highest ethical standards of the current Second Gentleman!
Love this reporting call those criminals justices and their wives out!
It isn't very surprising to see this unethical conduct among the members of the SCOTUS, given the lackluster quality of Supreme Court appointments over the last 30 years.
Lawrence, you're my all-time favorite anchor. Keep doing what you do, sir! 🫡
Brilliant presentation 👏
Thank you, Lawrence. 👍
I always enjoy Lawrence's slow, deliberate and clear authoritative delivery. Yes, corruption always gets more exposure than ethical honesty. The trouble is, it's impossible to do anything about corruption amongst the richest and most powerful people. As time goes on, this is becoming more and more apparent. They act with total fearlessness and impunity....you cant catch us suckers! We will die waiting for justice that will never come.

Lawrence, you never disappoint!
Roberts made the comment that he does not understand why the people have lost faith in the S.C. for me that statement says it all.
When you have Supreme Court Justices doing whatever pleases them, how can a country expect rules and laws to be followed by their citizens? Ethics and proper behavior come from the top rung of the ladder, not from the mud at the bottom.
" how can a country expect rules and laws to be followed" ... and thats the point... you are trying to destroy the court
@@iamdone7094 Reform, Paul, not destroy. One of these is not like the other.

No more soldiers.
No more doctors.
No more nurses.
No more reliable workers.
No more firefighters.
No more good police officers.
No more glimmering, unobstructed support for the US.

Shut up. Step aside. Be better. And maybe - MAYBE - we will fight for your rights, freedoms and futures.

I agree but most American Taliban aka RED are low information folks who lack critical thinking skills. Now what? The REDS use gerrymandering/voter suppression and the electoral college to install RED team members. Who/what will change that? And WTH is Biden against court reform?
One comment of one , though I view your show often. This stands out as "of utmost importance". I hope it gains traction.
When we go high, they go lower. They’re playing us at every turn and really don’t care about ethics. What do you do when you can’t shame the unshameable?
There was no respect given to the very Committee that apprived rhe nominations of these very same Supreme Court Justices. The arrogance and sense of entitlement is mind boggling.
Not only should the highest court have ethics rules, those rules must be the most strict in the entire judicial system.
The actual funny part is thinking a Republican senate & house will hold Republican Supreme Court justice accountable
Democrat Hunter Biden appeared in an Arkansas court Monday in his bid to get his child support payments lowered, and it didn’t go well for him. The judge lambasted Joe’s son and his legal team for being slippery in providing his financial information and income.
Democrat Biden was ordered by the judge last week to appear in person for today’s hearing and all future ones after she had accused him of delaying the litigation. On Monday she chastised his democrat team for redacting too much info. Judge Holly Meyer rebuked the 53-year-old’s legal team during the two-hour proceedings, saying they wrongly concealed details of filings that had already been submitted to the court as part of the ongoing legal saga.
“The ability to redact is somewhat being abused,” the judge told democrat Hunter’s attorneys before ordering them to refile some of those papers. It wasn’t immediately clear exactly what financial information was included in the filings.
Democrat Hunter appeared in a Batesville court as he seeks to reduce his monthly payments for the cute 4-year-old daughter he fathered with gorgeous Lunden Roberts. The attorney for Lunden Roberts-Hunter’s ex-girlfriend and the mother to their precious child-filed a 12-page discovery motion last week accusing the first son of putting on an act:
Democrat Biden claims to be nothing more than a Yale educated attorney/artist who is somewhat financially destitute and needs his child support adjusted. However, for an artist living on meager means, Mr. Biden is living lavishly. He travels the world on the safest and most comfortable airplane in existence - Air Force One, for free.
Now the judge wants to know what Hunter’s art is actually worth, but was frustrated by the Biden team’s lack of transparency:
Meyer on Monday ordered Hunter to answer additional written questions about his money - including investments, his art sales and other financial transactions - after Roberts’ attorney Clinton Lancaster claimed he had so far provided “incomplete answers.”
But Hunter’s attorneys hit back, saying the genius first son didn’t know the identities of the buyers as part of a purported arrangement to ensure they were unable to “influence” his father’s administration.
Hunter and Roberts will be required to sit for a deposition in mid-June to answer questions under oath, the judge ordered.
The battle between the two began in 2019 when Roberts claimed she was pregnant with Hunter’s child. Being Hunter Biden, he denied it, but a paternity test proved him wrong, and now he’s on the hook for what his lawyers say are child support payments totaling $720,000 a year unless he can convince the judge to lower them.
Democrat Hunter has never met his cute youngest daughter, 4-year-old Navy Joan Roberts, and last week president Joe Biden refused to even acknowledge her existence by claiming that he only has six grandchildren, when in reality he has seven !@!@!
