"Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas changed his position on one of America’s most significant regulatory doctrines after his wife reportedly accepted secret payments from a shadowy conservative network pushing for the change."
Yup. Thomas's rulings are nowhere near as consistent as his defenders claim. E.g., his arbitration rulings bear no resemblance to his stated jurisprudence.

2. No middle class & no social mobility for the poor
3. Frying the planet
4. No oversight or regulations
5. Court Capture
6. The US broken into weak balkanized states & weak federal government
7. White supremacy
8. Evangelical Christianity imposed on others by the federal government

#KochNetwork thwarts progress in America.
GOP billionaire donors are buying an America with an illiterate peasantry, non-existent middle class, & permanent kleptocratic rule.
It's why the GOP fights health care reform. Medical debt erases intergenerational wealth.
A figurehead like Trump can rubber stamp their entire agenda in one fell swoop.
