Public trust is on the line, & we're fighting to restore it.

🚨 NEW: Leonard Leo's dark cash hijacks legal academia. Ditched by Cornell after a $25M pitch, he funneled $15M into Texas A&M to push right-wing law under the radar.

Clarence Thomas went from struggling with student loans to hobnobbing with billionaires. Turns out, accepting lavish gifts is easier when you’re drowning in debt and rubbing elbows with the Koch network.

Who knew Supreme Court justice came with perks?
