There are nine judges in our federal judiciary who are not bound by a code of ethics, and they just so happen to be the nine most powerful judges in the country. Jeanne Hruska speaks with Mark Joseph Stern (Slate) and Chris Kang (Demand Justice) about the U.S. Supreme Court's "just trust us" approach to ethics, the problems this continues to create, and what a code of ethics for our highest court might look like.
