Kein guter Eindruck: Alle sechs konservativen Richter nahmen an Trumps festlichem Staatsessen teil

The first lady, in what Vogue described as a powder pink “columnar” gown and white opera gloves, [wore Dior Couture](https://www.vogue.com/article/melania-trump-christian-dior-couture) to Tuesday night’s state dinner in honor of Britain’s King Charles III.

Less remarked upon was the attire, much less the attendance, of [six especially notable guests](https://www.nytimes.com/2026/04/29/us/politics/trump-state-dinner-conservative-justices.html): Chief Justice John Roberts and Associate Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett, each of whom was accompanied by their respective spouses. The Supreme Court contingent represented nearly 10% of [the roughly 130 guests](https://www.the-independent.com/news/uk/home-news/king-charles-us-state-dinner-guests-trump-b2966989.html), which also included several Fox News journalists and executives, multiple Cabinet secretaries, some tech company titans and a handful of senior White House aides. 

And while all six justices nominated by Republican presidents (three by Trump himself) attended the dinner, none of the three justices nominated by Democratic presidents were there, invited or not.
The presence of a Supreme Court justice at a state dinner is not in and of itself unusual. Former President Barack Obama fondly recalled in memorial [remarks](https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2016/02/13/remarks-president-passing-us-supreme-court-justice-antonin-scalia) having welcomed then-[Justice Antonin Scalia to a 2012 state dinner](https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2012/03/14/expected-attendees-tonight-s-state-dinner) in honor of then-U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron.

Nor are conservative-leaning justices the only ones to have enjoyed state dinners. Public reporting has indicated now-retired Justice Stephen Breyer attended [a 2011 state dinner](https://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/20/world/asia/20dinner-list.html) in honor of then-Chinese President Hu Jintao and [a 2022 state dinner](https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/01/us/politics/state-dinner-guest-list.html)in honor of French President Emmanuel Macron. The late [Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg also attended a state dinner](https://obamawhitehouse.archives.gov/the-press-office/2011/10/13/expected-attendees-tonight-s-state-dinner-president-korea-and-mrs-kim-yo) during the Obama presidency in honor of then-Korean President Lee Myung-Bak. 

But typically, a state dinner features a sole Supreme Court justice, as with [Trump’s first dinner in 2018](https://www.politico.com/story/2018/04/24/trump-state-dinner-guest-list-550106), at which Chief Justice John Roberts and his wife were guests.

The presence of the entire conservative wing of the court on Tuesday night — just hours before it released a 6-3 decision significantly weakening the Voting Rights Act, and on the eve of oral argument about the legality of the administration ending temporary protected status for Syrian and Haitian immigrants — struck some court observers as unusual.

The perfect look. It says everything about current state of the U.S.

Why hide it anymore?

This is what total IMPUNITY looks like …. They are not even trying to hide it any more

A Winnebago giveaway?

That’s what corruption looks like😬

Supreme Court justices receive their payout.

They don’t care. They’re corrupt and have us by the shorthairs.
