The Supreme Court on Monday adopted its first code of ethics, in the face of sustained criticism over undisclosed trips and gifts from wealthy benefactors to some justices, but the code lacks a means of enforcement.
The policy, agreed to by all nine justices, does not appear to impose any significant new requirements and leaves compliance entirely to each justice.
It's sort of like saying "please don't take bribes and murder people" without any consequences for doing that. A code without an enforcement mechanism is simply empty, meaningless words promulgated by a bunch of jerkoffs.
But seriously, did anybody expect anything other than meaningless platitudes about ethics from those nine unelected monarchs?
