Separation of powers. Congress has virtually zero power to regulate the judiciary other than via impeachment. They have no Constitutional authority to impose any sort of ethics code upon a Federal judge. One would hope the SCOTUS would take the initiative and do so quickly. But, that is superficial at best because even if it did so there is no Constitutional method to remove a judge except by impeachment which has to be done by Congress. I guess the founding fathers weren’t so smart after all.

The lower federal courts were a creation of Congress. They could just as well eliminate that creation.
But the 2 corrupt parties are not interested in eliminating stuff like that, each wants to control the federal courts for their partisan purposes.
