An investigation is being sought into Joe Biden’s Supreme Court justice, Ketanji Jackson, for refusing to report her husband’s income for multiple years while she was a judge and required to do so.
A report at Fox News explains the ethics complaint was filed by the Center for Renewing America with the Judicial Conference.
It charges that Jackson “willfully” concealed required income disclosures … for years.
In a letter, the center charged Jackson refused to report her husband’s income for more than a decade as a judge, and suggests the conference should refer Jackson to Attorney General Merrick Garland “for investigation and possible civil enforcement,” the report said.
At issue is a requirement that judges disclose income “by a spouse from any person which exceed $1,000.”
There is an exception if the spouse is “self-employed in business or a profession, only the nature of such business or profession needs to be reported.”
Jackson, when nominated to the district court bench in Washington, revealed the names of two legal medical malpractice consulting clients who paid her husband, Patrick Jackson, more than $1,000 for the year 2011, according to the letter.
But in later filings, she “repeatedly failed to disclose that her husband received income from medical malpractice consulting fees,” the letter charges.
“We know this by Justice Jackson’s own admission in her amended disclosure form for 2020, filed when she was nominated to the Supreme Court, that ‘some of my previously filed reports inadvertently omitted’ her husband’s income from ‘consulting on medical malpractice cases,'” the center charges.
Further, she hasn’t even “attempted” to list the years that omitted the required information.
The letter points out the income doesn’t qualify for the “self-employment” exception.
The letter argues Jackson was aware of the legal requirements in 2012 “enough to list the specific sources of income for her first disclosure filing,” but later on, she wouldn’t do that.
That makes her violation “willful.”
It also questions the “private funding” that paid for a massive event at the Library of Congress that included multiple performing groups when Biden appointed her.
It’s unclear who paid for the festivities.
IMPORTANT NOTE TO WND READERS: America – long the freest, most prosperous, powerful, altruistic and Christian nation on earth – is on the brink of destruction. Every decent and aware American adult knows this. The evidence is everywhere.
Democrat politicians today overwhelmingly favor late-term abortion up to the very moment of birth – formerly known as “infanticide.” They encourage children too young to drive or vote to have their breasts and/or sex organs amputated in pursuit of a “gender transition” that is both delusional and impossible, and which leads to staggering rates of depression and suicide. They have not just allowed, but ENGINEERED, a full-scale foreign invasion of America across her southern border.
Their standard bearer, President Joe Biden – a senile, pathologically dishonest and epically corrupt career political hack – is destroying America’s economy, energy sector, military, law enforcement, election integrity, national security, Constitution and overall national wellbeing as rapidly as possible. At the same time, Team Biden demonizes and, increasingly, IMPRISONS critics as “violent extremists,” “domestic terrorists,” “white supremacists” and “insurrectionists.” Indeed, they’re currently engaged in an obviously corrupt multi-front legal war against Biden’s chief political rival, Donald J. Trump, in an attempt to send the 45th president of the United States to prison for the rest of his life.
None of this constitutes “politics” in any conventional or traditional American sense. Rather, it is all darkly spiritual. The greatest nation on earth is in the throes of a full-blown spiritual war between good and evil.
The big question, then, is WHAT CAN BE DONE TO SAVE AMERICA?
