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.

    A person in an influential position using their status to enrich themselves? Shocking.

    Though: was it actually Sotomeyer pushing her staff to boost book sales or the publisher, whose job it is to get books into reader’s hands?

      It seems it was her clerics. Which, come on… Don’t do that.

      They need oversite and an Inspector General for all this shit.
