Looks like Federalist Society conservatives are desperate to find anything untoward they can pin on liberal SCOTUS justices after revelations of a bribery scandal with Justices Clarence Thomas and Neil Gorsuch.

Staffers asking college libraries to buy Sotomayer’s books is some weak sauce in comparison.
