The most powerful court has zero oversight – seriously

Jason, here's a fact that should stop you in your tracks:
The Supreme Court of the United States, the most powerful court in the country, operates under no binding code of ethics.
Read that again.
Federal judges at every other level of the judiciary are bound by ethics rules. Members of Congress are bound by financial disclosure requirements.
But the nine justices who sit on the highest court in the land — who decide the future of reproductive rights, voting rights, and the boundaries of presidential power — answer to no one.
When a justice has an obvious conflict of interest – or accepts lavish trips, gifts, or favors from the very people whose cases later land on their desk – they face no consequences.
This isn't an accident or an oversight. It is the direct result of decades of Republican obstruction — every serious attempt at Supreme Court ethics reform blocked, stalled, or filibustered before it could become law.
And under the Trump Regime, the consequences of that imbalance have only grown more dangerous, as his hand-picked Justices give him pass after pass when it comes to facing real accountability.
Democrats in Congress already have the legislation ready to go: binding ethics rules, mandatory and transparent financial disclosure, and a real, enforceable code of conduct for every justice.
What's missing isn't the policy, but the majority to pass it.
That majority is why I launched Transcend PAC. We are making investments race by race in the contests that will determine whether Supreme Court reform finally has a path forward. Will you make a split contribution to Transcend PAC and Democratic Values before our next deadline to help us win back control of Congress and advocate for accountability?
