Child in Private School. Harlan Crow Paid the Tuition.

New from ProPublica: "Clarence Thomas had a child in private school.
Harlan Crow paid the tuition...If he paid for all four years, the price
tag could have exceeded $150,000."

Harlan Crow is the same conservative billionaire who for 20 years lavished
the Supreme Court justice with millions of dollars in luxury travel that
Thomas failed to report on financial disclosure documents.

Last week, Chief Justice John Roberts REFUSED a request from senators to
testify about the future of ethics and the Supreme Court. Senate Judiciary
Committee Chair Dick Durbin didn't issue subpoenas and the first (and so
far only announced) hearing had no big witnesses. Subpoenas are needed.

[ [link removed] ]SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: This Supreme Court is increasingly
facing a legitimacy crisis. Senate Judiciary Chair Dick Durbin must launch
a full investigation -- including subpoenas -- into Supreme Court
corruption and take steps to pass legislation requiring strong ethics for
our Supreme Court.

The ethics, corruption, and undue influence allegations at this Supreme
Court are piling up:

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas accepted millions of
dollars of luxury travel and accommodations from conservative billionaire
Harlan Crow -- and didn’t disclose it. Crow also bought Thomas’s mother's
house without disclosing it.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch and his business partners
sold a multi-million dollar property to a rich lawyer whose firm
frequently has cases before the Supreme Court, just 9 days after he was
sworn in -- and Gorsuch appears to have failed to properly report it.

Conservative Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts' wife was paid over
$10 million in commissions from elite law firms. At least one of those
firms argued a case before Chief Justice Roberts after paying his wife
hundreds of thousands of dollars. Roberts did not recuse himself -- and
voted in favor of that law firm’s client.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito was the subject of a
long-term influence campaign orchestrated by a right-wing activist and a
network of wealthy donors that allegedly resulted in, among other things,
one of the donors being told in advance about an upcoming Supreme Court
decision.

Supreme Court Justices do not live by the same ethics rules as other
federal judges. Meaning, if a judge gets elevated to the highest court in
the land, the ethical standards they’re held to go down.

[ [link removed] ]SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: The U.S. Senate must launch a full
investigation -- including subpoenas -- into Supreme Court corruption and
take steps to pass legislation requiring strong ethics for our Supreme
Court.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.
