This court is not just extreme. It is corrupt.
Clarence Thomas accepted years of luxury travel, private jet flights, and undisclosed vacation accommodations from a Texas billionaire with interests before the court. He never disclosed it or recused himself. When Congress demanded answers, the court stonewalled.
Samuel Alito accepted a private jet flight to an Alaskan fishing lodge from a conservative mega-donor. He flew a flag associated with the January 6th election denial movement outside his home. He declined to recuse himself from cases where conflicts were obvious. No accountability or consequences.
This is the court Leonard Leo built with $1.6 billion in dark money. The court that granted Trump criminal immunity. The court that gutted the Voting Rights Act. The court that opened the floodgates for the unlimited dark money that paid for all of it.
The only answer to a system this corrupt is to reform the institution at the top of it.
That is what Unpack Our Courts is building, the movement to expand the court, establish term limits, and create the binding ethics code that would have made every abuse described above impossible.
That is the long game. The short game is to continue building a firewall of state Supreme Courts. We already built it in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, and this November we are taking it to Nevada, Kentucky, Montana, Michigan, and Minnesota, holding the line at the state level while we push federal reform through.
Can we count on you to rush a donation of $50, $25, or whatever you can spare right now to fight a corrupt system at every level simultaneously?
