republican speaker of the house, mike johnson, says that the supreme court should to step in, so you've got a congressional leader wanting the judicial branch, the federal level to metal, and the judicial system of the state of new york. first of all, is that possible in a 2nd? isn't this the behavior that we usually find in an all talk proceed and not the democracy? exactly, i mean, i think that 1st of all, there's no chance that the supreme court is going to take up this case is too much time involved. secondly, there's going to have to be a process going ahead of this product, which is the 2nd thing in july. and, and so, and in any case, this is going to have to take a long walk as we go towards november 5th. there are 2 or 3 other trials, which probably will be handled between now and november, 5th, the election. that is. but i think in any case uh, the way in which some of the republicans are responding to this is by denigrating the traditional system. instead of looking at it as a way to confirm the system works with standards, correct? mm hm. the, the judge, you know, you mentioned the sentencing. the judge is not expected to sentenc

judicial branch of the president. dear judiciary, information protection center , judiciary, ministry of information, secretariat of the supreme national security council and the ministry of foreign affairs, who have jointly activated various meetings and negotiations and different capacities during this period, i would like to thank you for the extensive efforts that have been made in the arena. legal and judicial was one stage of the work, and besides that, there were many political talks. now , hamid nouri, with a backpack , tells stories about the suffering of captivity, about the violation of the rights of a prisoner in the west who claims to defend human rights. on june 26, 1403, finally, mr. hamid nouri, a citizen of our country, after 1,680 days of captivity saed's solitary confinement returned to the arms of the family. so far, 27 passenger planes have been hit in the sky. two of these 27 cases occurred in iran. one was in the summer of 1967, when a passenger plane carrying 290 passengers to our country was shot down in broad daylight by a missile fired from the american ship vincennes, and all 290 passengers, 66 of w

before the establishment of the united states supreme cour w was of course, a feature not of the articles of confederation, which had no judicial or branchderal constitution, which created article three courts with exceptional power, including the united states supreme court. so when i try to talk about the founding period from a legal perspective, you don't spend much of your time prior to 1787 and you basically treat the founding period as going through the initial justices and through the period of john marshall. and the question , how do you want to evaluate this? and the first point takes off from what you've all is that nobody at the period ever themselves capitalist it wasn't that it was a dirty term at that time. it wasn't a term at all. a capitalism essentially is a term that comes in in the mid 19th century was introduced largely for negative purposes to explain why it is that socialism was serious, more superior. and you have to remember what it means. it meant the government ownership of all productive of production was that and whatever the united states economy was, it certainly wasn't that because there were very different

supreme court legitimacy is vanishing before our eyes. and a gail cole -- in a gallup poll 49% of americans said they have fair amount of trust in the judicial branche court faces dual legitimacy crises, there is a credibility crisis call by actions of some of the justices from thomas's undisclosed financial relationships to justice alito's recordings and upside down flag, both of which cast doubt on their political independence. and then there is the cord's track record of tearing down decades-old president with deeply unpopular decisions like v wade, getting the voting rights act and dismantling ■çaffirmative action. and then, there is tomorrow. we will learn whether this court will say that donald trump was able to freely and openly commit crimes without consequence. we already have an electorate that has lost faith in congress. the current congress is on track to be one of the least productive in american history. if donald trump wins back presidency in the fall he literally has a 900+ page playbook full of detailed plans to dismantle the civil-service apparatus of the government, consolidate power in the executive branch and weaponize the just

judicial branch. and all of it would avoid the accountability chasm that is at the heart of the supreme court's withoutongress taking action, is that the chief justice does nothing that would prevent the chief justice from order an investigation of a complaint that may come to be filed against a justice such as establishing a tribunal the judicial conference, to investigate and make recommendations? >> i would think the chief justice would have brought he may choose to setthe process separately and then execute through the process. he may wish to seek a majority vote to see that he has the support of the court in doing so. there is a lot of flexibility t want to comment in too much depth. administrative chief of the supreme court. the chair of the judicial conference. broad judicial authority and the responsibility to see to it that the judicial government branch operates ethically and properly and with accountability and with transparency. he hasity and he has the tools to achieve them, i believe. >> mr., thank you for joining us. senator whitehouse, thank you for working so hard. thank you an unflagg

supreme court subservient to congress in any respect. obliges the jural branch of government to create it's own ethics enforcement mechanism thatat■p will be run within the judicialranch o government by the judicial branch of government. there is a concern when the judicial branch runs an ethic program for the judicial bnch of government withinhi the judicial branchju of government. it just ain't so, madam president. the existing state oafai affairs is that the exists requirements that apply to the supreme court, firstre related to reducal and second to disclosure of g gifts did the justices complain they are investigating justiceat thomas and his disclosures, no, of course not, to hear itar on the senate for a bit disappointing, right now, the jural conference investigates and can sanction for farther investigation justices of the supreme court. we are trying to fix three really simple problems. one is fact-finding. issueinding, ought in dispute. every memberve of government in the united states subject to any kind of supervision of requirement which is everybody has a process where found in what we wrong. hell, the president of the united states had to sit for

judicial branch of government. it just ain't so, madam president. the existing state of affairs is that the ethics requirements that apply to the justices of the supremeourt, first related to recusal and second related to disclosure of gifts, are laws passed bynd the enforcement, particularly of the disclosure requirements is done judicial conference. the judicial conference is a body established by congress. whenular -- when harlan crow first started giving free jet and travel secretly to clarence thomas that was taken up by the judicial conference a decade ago. did the justices complain that the judicial conference was investigating justice thomas and his disclosures? no. of course not because the argument would make no sense. so to hear it here on the senate floor is a bit disappointing. right now the judicial conference investigates and can sanction or refer for further investigation justices of the supreme court. we are trying to fix three really simple problems. one, is factfinding. factfinding ought not to be an issue in spute. every member of government in the united states who is subject to any kind of supervision or ethics requirement, which

all of that can be can be buile judicial branch and all of avoi chasm is at the heart of the supremeiled against the justice, such as tr the judicial conference, to investigate and make recommendations? is would stop the justice from doing that? >> i would think tt chief justice would have pretty broad ■; set up the process separately and then execute through the process and then the maj the support of the court in doing so. there's a lot of flexibility there and i don't want to comment in too much depth about that, but he is the ■u chiefnd the judicial conference and between the two oic broad judic and the responsibility to see to it that the judicial branch of government operates ethically and properly and with accountability and with sparenc he has those responsibilities and he has the tools to achieve them, i believe. >> thank you. with that i'll yield back. >> and mr. joining us. senator white house, we want to thank you for working so little supreme court and to their proceedings and thank you for being ampn unflagging champion for the constitution and the rule of law. i'm grat

all that can be built within the judicial branch and all of it would avoid the accountability chasm of the heart of the supreme's ethics problems. >> and without congress taking action, is your opinion, that the chief justice, there is nothing it would prevent the chief justice from ordering an investigation of a complaint, that may come to be filed against the justice such as establishing tribunal within the judicial conference, to investigate and make recommendations and is there anything. this. >> i would think that the chief justice would have pretty broad administrative authority to do that he may choose to set up a process separately and execute the process and he may wish to seek a majority vote in support of the court in doing so. there's a lot of flexibility there and i don't want to commenting too much depth about that but he is the administrative chief of the supreme court and he is the chair of the judicial conference in between us to offices he holds broads, judicial authority and the responsibility to see to it that the judicial branch of government operates ethically and properly with accountabi

seeing the court do it in a judicial fashion, just as we are seeing project 2025 try to do it through the executive branch someday. >> i saw someone posted a that when the supremehe court saying you have done your service, we will take it from here. which was pretty funny. let's talk about this sort of immunity timing. i am probably wrong to find this in sensing, that not only did they delay and drag their feet, not only do they take two weeks to decide, not only did they schedule it in the last day of oral arguments, but now they will release it on the very last day of the term. >> you are right to be annoyed and you are right to say, you know, that there was nothing that the court couldn't have decided in december, they could have similarly affirmed this, they could have done what jack smith asked and just leapfrogged it the way they leapfrogged the other case, as you noted, and they could have done what they did in the anderson case, and the colorado ballot case, which is saying we are going to fast track this because we know what an emergency looks like. i take this decision to do it on the very last day of the term, which is extended, by the way, past toda

individual officials in the federal branch of government in the legislative side and in the judicial side. and, you know, that is what unifies what is happening in the supreme court, what is happening in the republican party, what is happening with congressional republicans. absolute corruption of their duty. we swore an oath to uphold the constitution of the united states, not to uphold one guy or one party or the interests of one billionaire sugar daddy, and yet, that is what is taking place now, and yesterday they bowed down to the gun manufacturers and gave them exactly what they wanted, throwing out the rule of law, and it was very clear that when you add the bump stock to the semi automatic weapon, you have got the functional equivalent of a machine gun. everybody understands that. we saw what that meant at the las vegas massacre, our deadliest massacre in american history, 58 lives were wiped out , 500 people wounded, families still reeling from that disaster, and yet they make a mockery of the whole thing, with supreme court decisions that pictorial illustrations, little drawings to explain why they don't think it is operating like a machine gun, wh

awaiting his own supreme court ruling this month on when or how he'll face a trial for jack smith against him. while it has swiftly ousted leaders of failed coups and the united states judicial branch is trying to hold this failed coup leader accountable, the news tonight is how the legislative grafrn is failing on this front because while democrats and a handful of republicans did pursue accountability, no matter where it led, most republicans are now embracing trump and minimizing or lying about january 6th, undercutting the very capitol police who protect them and who protected the capitol that day. before cynics pop up and say, well, isn't this just politics? or okay, ari, this is what republicans always do? that's not actually true. so we begin with a pack fact check here to bear witness to the history of that day. members in congress were in grave danger. people died that day and the day after. police were brutally attacked. what you see on your screen is how members of congress had to flee in the first hours after control was regained. republicans and democrats alike stood up to trump's insurrection as republican leader mcconnell called it that very word and the thugs and th

judicial conduct for u.s. judges provides clear guidelines on recusal, and it's ultimately up to the individual justices. unfortunately, there's a fullpl blur the lines the supreme court from other branchs years liberal activists and dark money groups have b on a warpath to destroy public confidence in the high court's -- and the high court's independence. one of these groups is called demand justice, an organization whose highest goal is to pack the supreme court and install a permanent liberal majority. a couple of years ago -- years ago one of the cofounders of demand justice said, it's time for the democrats to see the court as a political as much a official and run against it. that's the type of people and the type of agenda we're dealing with here. demand justice and other liberal groups recently sent letter to senator durbin, chairman of the senate judiciary committee, urging him to use his power to investigate these so-called ethics concerns. they want the senate to craft a law to dictate to the supreme court what their code of ethics should look like. forget about the fact they senate -- democrat senators . want to dictate what that code of ethics should look like. and last nig
