The Koch brothers are getting their money's worth when it comes to our government. Justice Clarence Thomas was sent an email to come visit an organization affiliated with one known in my community over 2 yrs ago. He has yet to respond to attend. Washington CNN — Justice Clarence Thomas attended a private dinner in 2018 during a winter donor summit of the Koch network, the political organization founded by libertarian billionaires Charles and David Koch, ProPublica reported Friday. Thomas attended Koch donor events at least twice over the years, according to interviews with three former Koch network employees and one major donor conducted by ProPublica. Staffers told the outlet that the justice was brought in with the hope that “such access would encourage donors to continue giving.” The report, the latest in a series by ProPublica that has revealed close relationships between Thomas and conservative interests, is likely to again stir questions about Thomas’ ethics, especially given the Koch network’s occasional support for litigation before the Supreme Court.
Nope. The issue is Thomas hanging out with a political tycoon. If Sotomayor attended an event by George Soros, rightists would mane an issue out of it.
