This isn’t just a series of scandals. This is a wholesale attack on democracy.

Friend,

Another shocking Supreme Court corruption scandal just broke, as Samuel Alito, author of the decision overturning Roe v. Wade, was just caught red-handed taking huge undisclosed gifts from a Republican megadonor.

This comes after we learned that Clarence Thomas and his wife, Ginni, have been getting millions from GOP billionaire Harlan Crow, and Neil Gorsuch was caught getting a sweetheart real estate deal from a major corporate law firm that regularly argues before the court.

It’s becoming painfully obvious that the Supreme Court justices have been on the take for years—and a big part of the problem is the corporate media, which still treats the Supreme Court like some kind of holy temple and ridicules court reform as an extreme, unworkable idea.

Common Dreams is giving headline coverage to each and every one of these scandals while lifting up the voices of those calling for the vital reforms needed to end corruption at the court.

An independent judiciary is essential to the survival of democracy. But we will never get the reforms needed to stop the blatant corruption at the Supreme Court unless the public is informed and receives the facts they need to demand accountability.

That’s why Common Dreams’ reporting on Supreme Court corruption is so needed right now. Please chip in whatever you can afford right now to help power our nonprofit, independent journalism.
