Supreme Court Ethics
Score a win for corruption. Senate Democrats on Thursday backed down from their plan to subpoena Leonard Leo and Harlan Crow in their probe of Supreme Court ethics. Senate Republicans had promised to turn the hearing into a "shit show" if the Democrats issued the subpoenas, and threatened retribution if/when they win the majority. Don't they do that anyway? The decision to back down was a mistake.
Yes, Thomas does know about ethics, he doesn't care as long as the goodies keep coming into his pocket. It is so sad to see our government supporting the destruction of our Democracy.
I agree -- it was a SERIOUS mistake . . . seems to me the GOP has been conducting a "shit show" for way, way too long . . ..
