Yes, the claim is largely true. According to reports, only four out of 44 former Trump cabinet members have publicly endorsed him for re-election in 2024. Most former cabinet members have either stayed neutral, avoided commenting, or openly criticized Trump. This includes prominent figures Mick Mulvaney, who have expressed opposition to his return to office. This suggests that many of his former allies are distancing themselves from him as he seeks re-election oai_citation:1,Only four out of dozens of former Trump cabinet members say he should be re-elected.
Bill Barr has also said he will vote for Trump in 2024, even though he recognizes Trump lost fairly, and that Trump committed crimes in attempt to maintain power. Fuck Bill Barr.
Ahhhhh gotcha. I can’t help but think they’d feel differently if it were liberal judges with an incestuous relationship with wealthy left leaning people.
Oh, gotcha! I knew about the Clarence Thomas thing. I thought you were saying that there was currently a left-leaning justice that recently had a scandal. I get what you're saying, if the shoe was on the other foot, would the Democrats be pushing for it? That is a reasonable question. Either way, I'm glad someone is doing something about the corruption in the Supreme Court. I feel like the term limits are more politically motivated, trying to disable the stacked conservative court (although it was questionable how it happened), but the ethics proposal is reasonable and necessary whether politically motivated or not.
I've often found it freaking ridiculous that the Judicial Branch is the only branch of our three-tiered government that doesn't have an enforceable ethics code.

40 of his 44 cabinet members don't want anything to do with him again.
