| 0:00.0 | Well, howdy there internet people, let's bow again. So today we are going to talk about Chief |
| 0:05.8 | Justice Roberts and an invitation to come talk to the Senate Judiciary Committee about ethics at the Supreme Court |
| 0:17.0 | and what's likely to happen there. |
| 0:22.0 | So, as we have talked about before, the Democratic Party has |
| 0:28.0 | basically been like you need to look into this or we will when talking to Chief Justice Roberts. |
| 0:38.0 | And it's been about the situation with Justice Thomas and the gifts and financial arrangements that have |
| 0:48.8 | been discovered and reported on. So it's an invitation. That's the thing. It's not a subpoena. The Senate Judiciary |
| 1:01.2 | Committee chair Dick Durbin has invited, asked for him to come talk. |
| 1:08.0 | But they don't have the votes for a subpoena because of Senator Feinstein's absence. |
| 1:17.0 | The Republican Party has indicated that they're not really interested in helping get a subpoena to find out about |

| 1:58.2 | And I think that they might be interested in knowing that Republicans apparently don't care or aren't willing to simply ask and get to the bottom of it. |
| 2:11.0 | That seems like a that seems like a point that the |
| 2:17.0 | Democratic Party should be repeatedly making because without Republican help or Feinstein's return, they don't have the votes. |
| 2:28.7 | They can't get the subpoena. |
| 2:30.4 | It's literally just asking, hey, will you come talk to us. |
| 2:35.8 | The fact that the Republican Party |
| 2:39.4 | doesn't seem interested in this |
| 2:42.2 | should be a warning sign to a whole lot of people. |
