Senator Dick Durbin and other Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, are intensifying their calls for Supreme Court Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. to be held accountable for alleged ethical violations. These accusations, which also target Justice Clarence Thomas, have led to a significant decline in the public image of the Supreme Court. Representative Steve Cohen has introduced a resolution calling for Alito's censure and recusal from all cases related to the January 6th insurrection and the 2020 election.

That's why my resolution calls not only for the censure of Alito, but also his recusal from all #Jan6 & 2020 election cases. The public trust demands it. https://t.co/GiLEOF4eBT
"To be blunt, Durbin’s oath of office to protect the Constitution demands he do something. And Alito’s grotesque malfeasance tests not only Durbin, but also Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer," @jrubinblogger writes. https://t.co/jzGQOWcvR8
