Harlan Crow is just one of many. The New York Times reports that shortly after his confirmation to the Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas was invited into the inner circle of an exclusive association "of extraordinarily wealthy, largely conservative members."
NY TIMES: "His friendships forged through the group have brought him proximity to a lifestyle of unimaginable material privilege. Over the years, his friends have welcomed him at their vacation retreats, arranged V.I.P. access to sporting events, and invited him to their lavish parties...He has granted it unusual access to the Supreme Court."
The Times continues that the wealthy and powerful "friends" he has made in the association, "have included major donors to conservative causes with much at stake in Supreme Court decisions."
John, we're highlighting 5 key Senate races (which impact judicial and Supreme Court confirmations) and 5 hotly contested school board races where the right wing wants to use the opportunity this Court poses to hurt kids and education.

- Arizona U.S. Senate. Kyrsten Sinema is running as a third party, Republicans want to take this seat, and Democrat Ruben Gallego is narrowly ahead in 3-way polls. We can't afford to lose this seat to Republicans or let Sinema keep siding with Republicans.
- Montana U.S. Senate. Democratic Senator Jon Tester has the most Trump-voting state of anyone Dem besides Joe Manchin. Unlike Manchin, he is awesome and challenges corporate power big-time. He needs our help to defend this seat against a popular Republican.
- Ohio U.S. Senate. Democratic Senator Sherrod Brown is the only Democrat to win statewide in Ohio for years, and he has a giant target on his back. He is a huge advocate for unions, workers, and bank accountability. Let's get his back.
- Wisconsin U.S. Senate. Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin is one of the most progressive senators, and Republicans are buoyed after winning the 2022 Wisconsin Senate race by 1 point. This will be a nail biter, and this seat is key to a Senate majority.
- Missouri U.S. Senate. This is Democrats' best chance at winning an upset -- and Democrats won this seat in two of the last three elections until insurrectionist Josh Hawley won it last time. Marine and anti-monopoly crusader Lucas Kunce appeals to a wide swath of voters and has great momentum.
- 5 key school board races in Fairfax County (VA), Mt. Lebanon (PA), Philadelphia (PA), and State College (PA).
