about that. It reminds me a bit about the Scott Walker/Wisconsin GQP corruption and the slam dunk evidence a long investigation found and that the corrupt WI Supreme Court ordered returned to the crooks because they felt it was their First Amendment right to be crooked, violate state laws by using state resources for private campaigns etc. The court that also ducked away from holding one of its' members accountable for trying to choke a member they disagreed with. They did so by having enough members recuse themselves so that a quorum of justices couldn't be empaneled to make the inquiry. Profiles in courage.
