Judicial activist directed fees to Clarence Thomas’s wife, urged ‘no mention of Ginni’

Leonard Leo told GOP pollster Kellyanne Conway to give the spouse of the Supreme Court justice « another $25,000 » and to bill a nonprofit organization called the Judicial Education Project.

The Washington Post

A key #LeonardLeo aide, Sarah Field, would come aboard to help #GinniThomas manage the group, which they called #LibertyCentral.

After Liberty Central went public, it provoked an outcry over a #SCOTUS justice’s wife promoting causes like overturning #Obamacare that were before her husband’s court. Leo & Thomas changed gears. His network reactivated a dormant group, the #JudicialEducationProject, which would go on to become a major supplier of #AmicusBriefs before the nation’s highest court.

Leo has become more publicly outspoken in attacking reproductive rights, efforts to protect our environment & crucial measures that advance Americans’ equality.

Leo’s longtime collaborator Neil Corkery, an anti-gay rights and anti-abortion operative central to Leo’s court capture network.
