Six Republican Justices, already embroiled in scandal for receiving millions in “gifts” from oligarchs with business before the Supreme Court, overturned the clear will of Congress today to legalize bribery-after-the-fact. Or as they call it, “gratuities.”

Justice Jackson, dissenting, has some choice words: (1/5)

This is very similar to the bump stock ruling that willfully ignores the plain mean of the law passed by congress and declares that bump stocks are not yet illegal.
With this court, the words written by congress have no binding power
