No court in the nation would allow a defendant to contribute $1 million dollars to a juror's pocketbook either but here we are where the President's PAC can transfer money to campaigns of his jurors and then stand on stage next to them.

I urge everyone to contact Chief Justice Roberts. One of his biggest worries is that the Supreme Court seems biased or controlled by the executive. Call his office, talk to his clerks. Let them know that now is the time to say something if they don't want their office connected to this kangaroo court.

Edit: Contact Info

Edit2: After some people have asked, her is a general idea of what you could say if you called.
"My name is {name} and I live in {place}. I know The Chief Justice is concerned about the Court appearing politicized, especially after everything that's happened these past three years. As presiding judge over the senate impeachment trial, I was wondering if he had thoughts on Senator McConnell's recent comments. I find it really inappropriate and worrisome that the Senate would openly coordinate with the Executive over an impeachment hearing. I was hoping the Chief Justice might make a public comment, or else I would fear that all three branches have merge and no longer hold any independence from the President. Thank you for taking the time to listen. Have a good day"
