My plan as such is to do as much good as possible where it can be done and not violate the oaths we've taken because we are responsible for our own honor and can't help it if the system is rewarding the worst violators of those oaths.

Tigerbomb13 Posted February 24 Posted February 24 Thomas and Alito will retire by the time Trump’s term is over, and get some nice kickbacks for doing so. Quote
