Insider reported a number of Red Team Senators defended billionaire Harlan Crow's predilections.
Crow's collection includes two of Hitler's paintings, a signed copy of Mein Kampf, the fascist dictator's 1925 manifesto, other Nazi trinkets, and a garden filled with statues of some of the most reviled leaders from the 20th Century.
His backyard includes a so-called "Garden of Evil," including busts and statues of infamous dictators ranging from Joseph Stalin and Vladimir Lenin to Fidel Castro and Josip Tito.
Crow became more widely known for his generous hospitality to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and his wife Ginni. The two had a number of real estate transactions, as well. Thomas' mother lives rent free in a Crow owned home.
Vibrant, competent democratic institutions can be corrupted by evil people. I would rather hear warnings from U.S. Senators in that regard.
Update 5-4-23: The Insane Red Team's Senator Josh Hawley claimed the Blue Lucy's are intimidating the Supreme Court by raising ethics issues and actually setting a standard.
Billionaire Harlan Crow paid the private school tuition for Clarence Thomas' grand nephew, estimated to be over $150,000. Thomas is raising the relative as a son.
Update 5-7-23: Former Trump advisor Kellyanne Conway defended the insider money funnel that secretly steered $100,000 to Judge Clarence Thomas' wife Ginni.
Update 7-2-23: In striking down affirmative action in college admissions Judge Thomas expressed his vision for a "colorblind Constitution." Our founding document counted slaves as three-fifths of a person. Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence, used his slaves a collateral for a loan. He was the first to do so. That is our history.
