ProPublica released a new report on Friday detailing Justice Clarence Thomas’ close relationship with the Koch brothers with previously undisclosed and extraordinarily damning new details.
According to ProPublica, the justice developed a friendship with the Kochs as they were funneling hundreds of millions of dollars into right-wing causes, many of which ended up before the Supreme Court. The brothers then used Thomas to raise money for their sprawling network, inviting him to speak at “donor events” that brought in millions of dollars.
He disclosed none of these activities on his annual disclosure forms, an obvious violation of federal ethics law.
This needs more attention. Far easier to go after the people doing the bribing and if we do, it will get a lot of money out of politics.
And thus make it easier to hold people like Clarence accountable.

For sure we should.
But the bribers don’t have to be impeached and can be charged directly.
If we can hold Trump accountable, we can hold the Koch family accountable too.
