Yes, please 👆👆
#ClarenceThomas needs to be investigated, and if evidence is as it seems, prosecuted.
#SCOTUSEthics
You missed one of the equally depressing aspects of this disgusting #SCOTUS mess:
The fact that NO ONE (not other judges in any Court, nor ANYONE in Congress, nor the WH itself) is seriously pushing for #impeachment and ClarenceThomas' removal from the #SupremeCourt, or for new laws to hold #SupremeCourtJustices accountable.
If everyone in both parties and all three branches of govt are all willing to turn a blind eye to such blatant #corruption, then our system is truly broken beyond repair or redemption.
It's time to get on the phones and start making demands of the people we voted in.
We also need to not let this get turned into a partisan issue. Corruption is wrong, nmw. Make the same calls to your #Republican reps as to the #Democrats.

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.
