#shorts On 5/2/2023, Senator Kennedy questioned Fogel in U.S. Senate Judiciary Hearing on SCOTUS ethics.
Kennedy: “telling 2 justices if they vote in a way he doesn’t like, they will pay the price” Kennedy questions to Fogel
Fogel: Hold on a second. I’m not accusing anybody of being bribed. I’m not, but some people are. Some people are … There’s a lot of political back and forth that’s very interesting. I’m interested in it as a citizen of the United States, but I think the most useful thing that this or any other committee could do is think about how do we make our instances well.

Kennedy: How are you going to do that in the context, though, of one of our leaders, for whom I have great respect, going on the steps of the United States Supreme Court, telling two justices if they vote in a way he doesn’t like, they will pay the price and reap the Whirlwind? And you have another one of your witnesses here tweeting out stuff saying, quote, “some justices or politicians and robes who thrive in a system where access, influence are for sale. He said they were bought like a sack of potatoes.” Okay, I’m not– I’m not going to comment on that, Senator. That’s not anything I had anything to do with, so–

Kennedy: I think, did I hear the gavel? Thank you.
