This time a payoff to the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas involving a case before the supreme court.

Conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo arranged for the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to be paid tens of thousands of dollars for consulting work just over a decade ago, specifying that her name be left off billing paperwork, according to documents reviewed by The Washington Post.

In January 2012, Leo instructed the GOP pollster Kellyanne Conway to bill a nonprofit group he advises and use that money to pay Virginia "Ginni" Thomas, the documents show. The same year, the nonprofit, the Judicial Education Project, filed a brief to the Supreme Court in a landmark voting rights case.

Leo told Conway that he wanted her to "give" Ginni Thomas "another $25K," emphasizing that the paperwork should have "No mention of Ginni, of course."

Well, sure, hidden payments amounting to about $100,000... sounds legit.

Good thing Kellyanne's married to an attorney.

Oh wait.

LOVE IT!!!!


But I am disappointed a bit. $25k is ridiculous - the Ruling Class steals so much more, and sells out America so much on big things - $25k is such an insult.

ALSO......

All the person funding it had to do - was just pay $25,000 worth of Ginni's bills. Send a $5000 check to some mortgage company. $6000 directly made out to tuition. Pay a contractor $8000 towards some home project. Just buy airline tickets or pay a hotel bill. Keep each instance under $10,000......and not ONE question would be asked.


Someone on TMF - who along ago got sick of personal attacks, and sick of mooch 401K coastal whining about "the rich!" and "you didn't build that"....... decided to opt out of the system - was good at this stuff.'

It's way better to take from the American Treasury- than to give.

Way better.

As an off topic - get the kids on the payroll. Write a realistic job description. 401K 100% of their wage. Get them 40 quarters of Social Security before anyone else should God forbid some disability need arise. All it costs you is FICA and it's well worth it. Oh - write off the payroll administration expense. It's negligible - but you can buy a good lunch with the discount. Oh wait, did that lower your rental profits? Poor baby. Be low income American.
