Though #HarlanCrow and #LeonardLeo aren't mentioned in this very informative piece, their fingerprints are all over the High Court. Chief Justice #JohnRoberts is just a passenger. It hasn't been his court since #Trump screwed it up royally with three radical right appointments. https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2023/09/supreme-court-praying-coach-joe-kennedy-fake.html

#LeonardLeo — the Federalist Society leader who “helped create a conservative supermajority on the Supreme Court”— revealed his next battle in video for the #teneonetwork : “‘roll back’ liberal influence in Wall Street & Silicon Valley, among authors & academics, with pro athletes & Hollywood producers. A #federalistsociety for everything.”

Rightwing activist #LeonardLeo under investigation in Washington DC

> Scope of investigation by district’s attorney general into man behind efforts to install conservative judges remains unclear
#AccountableUS: #LeonardLeo’s Circular Profit Scheme, Influence-Peddling Sparks DC AG Probe
CRC Advisors and BH Group – two corporate entities owned by Leo – received $73 million from nonprofits associated with the right-wing activist while advising Trump on judicial nominations… since 2016… two new mansions in Maine, four new cars, private school tuition for his children, hundreds of thousands in donations to Catholic causes…

This is good news! Ideally, a case of this magnitude would be investigated by the Department of Justice, which has far greater resources at its disposal. However... Merrick Garland.

A film, websites, and even a Twitter fan account praising Clarence Thomas were all part of a coordinated public relations campaign backed by nonprofit groups tied to a Federalist Society chairman

Besides providing the Supreme Court justice with valuable, and largely unreported, gifts, well heeled conservative activists have been running a long-standing PR campaign on his behalf.

Yes, there IS a “deep state.” It’s made up of America’s wealthy, White, “Christian” conservatives, as well as such organizations as the Republican Party, conservative SCOTUS justices, the Federalist Society, and others of their unsavory ilk.
