@WagnerTonight everyone needs to write the supreme court every day. Ask them politely to establish ethics rules and an IG to help with oversight.

There is discussion about whether justices abided by rules as they consulted experts for advice on the rules, and there's talk about how the rules have changed, and all of that is premised on the observation that the rules do exist.
