    Access to the full article locked behind ‘free subscription’ signup page. :(

    I was hoping to see that actual names of the ‘friends’ of the court so that I could see their relationships with individual court justices (particularly to see if they are among the ‘friends’ who’ve gifted lavish gifts upon any of the justices). It’s disgusting that having to do this research is even a thing - most of the current justices haven’t been impartial in decades (some of them never).

    Edit: I finally read the full text of the article. For anyone who guessed that Justice Clarence Thomas received a series of lavish undisclosed and unreported gifts from one of the real estate moguls involved in this, YOU WERE CORRECT! Just another case of some rich people attempting to purchase judgments from the supreme court and getting away with it.
