What’s strange is why some people “expect Justices to be truthful”. This expectation is a bit strange to me. Fact is, aren’t justices mostly lawyers? Are lawyers really 100% truthful or are they trained to bend the truth for the benefit of their case/argument? Someone please explain this to me since I’m not all that politically savvy as most ppl here are.

I would think (based on the the candidate selection criteria) one would rather expect one’s justices to more likely know/understand the law better than anyone else and would have be fair and unbiased.
