15. No corruption for them to call out? Are you serious? When Thomas and Kavanaugh sit on the court?

I am sure you mean well and probably want to believe there is no corruption on the court. However, the billionaires funding Thomas’s lifestyle and the mysterious benefactor(s) wiping out Kavanaugh’s debt and mortgage are impossible to explain away as anything other than corruption.

I’ll give you that Alito and Gorsuch are just grade A assholes and Barrett is little more than a deer in the headlights completely out of her league. Then there’s Roberts who is as feckless and as derelict as humanly possible. But it’s difficult to explain away Thomas and Kavanaugh as being anything other than corrupted to the core.
