  3. Even the Founders, who evidently had an ethical compass unlike Leonard Leo, would find it utterly questionable & doubtful, that Leo's SCOTUS agents are holding their offices in "good Behaviour".

    That's why Congress had been given the power to impeach & remove justices & judges, if their behavior is iunacceptable & intolerable.

    If Congress can do that, it can also subpoena figures like $billions-juggler Leonard Leo, who are actively working to subvert the Separation of Power & the Separation of Church & State, which all branches of power are held to preserve, uphold & defend against all dark-money manipulators attempting to compromise the people's carefully checked & balanced system of government.

    Leonard Leo even seems to believe in Clarence Thomas's assessment, who called Leo the third-most important person in the U.S., if not in the world.
    Looking at Leo's special SCOTUS agents, that's most unfunny, to say the least.
    Time for a *Lex Leo" keeping his hand off of United States judiciary forever!

    P.S.: Article Three's "in good Behaviour" is ***interpreted*** as meaning *lifetime tenure* for judges & justices.
    Since behavior in fact not always proves to be good, impeachment & removal from office has been an appropriate remedy to judicial misconduct/ misdemeanors.

    good reading. Chief Justice Roberts 2011 Year End Report to Congress, where he patiently explains everything:

  6. “MSNBC’s Chris Hayes, ‘I love the notion that the seat on the private jet would have been empty so it doesn’t count. That’s how you know you’re dealing with a straight-shooter with good judgment.’”

    Same SHIT, different billionaire and different conservative justice!!!

  8. Sounds to me, like an easy case of business record falsification against Leonard Leo, Kellyanne Conway and Ginni Thomas.

    Will the DOJ or any state investigate? Discovery should be very interesting.

  10. Harlan Crow and Leonard Leo know that the best way to “own the libs” is to buy a conservative… SCOTUS justice, or two. Maybe three, maybe more.

  12. @Awknddragn
    Kavanaugh promised "payback" as well.

    I prefer my judges not to be vengeful dicks. Seems like that should be a requirement of "judicial temperament"
