thewayne"I believe that no one is above the law under our system and that includes the president."
-- now-Chief Justice John Roberts in his 2005 confirmation hearing
"No person in this country, no matter how high or powerful, is above the law."
-- Justice Samuel Alito, in his 2006 confirmation hearing
"We're all equal before the law...The foundation of our Constitution was that... the presidency would not be a monarchy...[T]he president is not above the law, no one is above the law."
-- Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the Senate in 2018
Supreme Court justices are not immune from impeachment by Congress. I'm just not certain if it falls under high crimes and misdemeanors.
