This week's parasha includes the famous phrase
צדק צדק תרדוף
"#Justice! Pursue justice!" (Deut. 16:20)
What does this mean in practice? Well, the preceding verse gives us a clue:
לא־תטה משפט לא תכיר פנים ולא־תקח שחד כי השחד יעור עיני חכמים ויסלף דברי צדיקם
"You shall not judge unfairly: you shall show no partiality; you shall not take bribes, for bribes blind the eyes of the discerning and upset the plea of the just." (Deut. 16:19)
To my understanding, #Christians accept the "moral commandments" (as opposed to "ritual commandments") of the #Torah. My question then is: why are so many self-proclaimed Christians—like, say, just as a totally random example, #JusticeThomas, or, another entirely random example, the current occupant of the White House—so willing to transgress these commandments?

[Paywall] #SupremeCourt #Ethics Bill Blocked In #Senate Amid #SamuelAlito Controversies
by Antonio Pequeño IV Forbes Staff
June 12, 2024"The Senate failed to advance a bill Wednesday designed to introduce ethics reform for the Supreme Court, with Sen. #LindseyGraham, R-S.C., shooting down the effort as Supreme Court #JusticeSamuelAlito faces ethics controversies and rejects calls to recuse himself from cases related to former President #DonaldTrump.
Key Facts
"Graham blocked a Democratic effort to pass the bill by unanimous consent, which requires the support of all senators.
"It was a widely anticipated outcome following #Republican pushback and votes against the bill when it passed the Senate Judiciary Committee in an 11-10 vote last year, while Justice #ClarenceThomas was embroiled in his own ethics controversies reportedly linked to accepting undisclosed financial favors.
"The bill, known as the Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal and Transparency Act, sought to enshrine a code of conduct for Supreme Court justices and grant the ability to bring complaints against justices who may have violated the code.
"The legislation also tried to establish rules governing the disclosure of 'gifts, income or reimbursements' for the Supreme Court, which has no binding code of conduct, unlike lower federal courts."

Sam is just misunderstood; he's part of the Supreme Court's billionaire Adopt-a-Justice Program; these poor justices only make $100k a year; you can't expect them to live on that; empty plane seats on private jets will go unfilled; who will sit for horrible paintings?
