6:38Now PlayingAugust 31 | Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) joins Ali Velshi on MSNBC's Alex Wagner Tonight to discuss the latest in the Supreme Court's ethics failures. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas today officially acknowledged that in the past year he took three trips on a private jet paid for by right-wing billionaire Republican megadonor Harlan Crow.
Whitehouse has long been the Senate’s leading voice for improving transparency and accountability at the Supreme Court. Last month, the Senate Judiciary Committee passed Whitehouse’s Supreme Court Ethics, Recusal, and Transparency (SCERT) Act, legislation that would help restore the American public’s sinking trust in the Supreme Court by fortifying regulations regarding judicial conflicts of interest and recusal. The bill was endorsed by The New York Times editorial board.
