Not so much berating as saying "stay in your lane". The letter - https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Letter to Chairman Durbin 04.25.2023.pdfSaw a headline today that all 9 Justices collaborated on a letter berating the Democrats for spurious ethics accusations.
Thanks, article I saw had a bit different timber to the verbiage.Not so much berating as saying "stay in your lane". The letter - https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/Letter to Chairman Durbin 04.25.2023.pdf
“You have released the whirlwind,” the Democratic Leader said. Incensed, protestors took to the streets – not outside Congress, not outside the Court. But outside the homes – the homes! – of Justice Roberts, Justice Kavanaugh, Justice Thomas, and Justice Barrett. Federal law prohibits this intimidation. But the Biden Justice Department allowed it.
“You will pay the price,” the Democratic Leader said. In that spirit, angry protesters publicized the location of the school that Justice Barrett’s children attend.
“You won’t know what hit you,” the Democratic Leader said. A man with a gun, ammunition, knife, pepper spray, and zip ties went to a justice’s home to assassinate him. Actually, his stated goal was to murder three justices.

The Supreme Court ruled on Thursday that federal labor law did not protect a union from potential liability for damage that arose during a strike, and that a state court should resolve questions of liability.
The majority found that if accusations by an employer are true, actions during a strike by a local Teamsters union were not even arguably protected by federal law because the union took “affirmative steps to endanger” the employer’s property “rather than reasonable precautions to mitigate that risk.” It asked the state court to decide the merits of the accusations.
The opinion, written by Justice Amy Coney Barrett, was joined by Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. and Justices Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Brett M. Kavanaugh.
Three conservative justices backed more sweeping concurring opinions. A single justice, Ketanji Brown Jackson, dissented.
I really liked Jackson saying that spoiled cheese was the same as hardening concrete. What a twit!SCOTUS to unions, 8-1: You break it, you bought it
Alternate headline: Pottery Barn rules apply to walkouts. In an 8-1 decision in which only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson fully dissented, the Supreme Court ruled today that unions have to reimburse employers for damages caused by striking workers. The National Labor Relations Act does not confer immunity to unions or workers — the latest ruling from a court that has stiffened the boundaries for labor activities in the last few years:
At issue was a job action by Teamsters at a large cement production and delivery company, which went on strike over their expired bargaining agreement. The union called for a strike in the middle of the day, even though the company had prepared a large amount of concrete for delivery that day, and that refusing to deliver it would not just ruin the product but also damage the vehicles. Sure enough, 16 drivers walked off the job. Glacier Northwest managed to get the concrete out of the trucks before they got seriously damaged, but their production that day was a total loss.
Glacier Northwest wants the Teamsters to reimburse them for the loss. The Teamsters argued that the NLRA immunizes them from such claims in state court and in federal court as well. Nope, writes Amy Coney Barrett for the 8-justice majority.
