  1. "Yet the Thomases’ haul is actually dwarfed by that of the Roberts family. The chief justice’s wife made millions of dollars (wholly 'legitimately') by recruiting partners for law firms, some of which have business before the Supreme Court. From 2007 to 2014, Jane Roberts reportedly made about $10 million from this work. Her overall income very likely dwarfs this sum. Ginni must be very jealous."

  2. "Yes, I mean, this is the point about Article 3 of the Constitution. It's very short. It requires that there be a U. S. Supreme Court as a few other provisions. But it leaves to Congress that essential role of administering the court and Congress has always done so. So to question that authority today is to question 230 years of consistent practice where Congress has legislated regarding the court."

  3. Senator Elizabeth Warren tweets:

    Over $10 million in "commissions" from elite law firms paid to Jane Roberts—the wife of Chief Justice John Roberts—for placing lawyers at firms and corporations, some with business in front of the Supreme Court.

    It's corruption, plain and simple.
