21:30Now PlayingDecember 19 | Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI), Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Courts Subcommittee, delivered the twenty-sixth in a series of speeches titled “The Scheme,” exposing the machinations by right-wing donor interests to capture the Supreme Court and achieve through the Court what they cannot through the elected branches of government.
Whitehouse discusses the Judiciary Committee’s vote last month to authorize Chairman Dick Durbin (D-IL) to issue subpoenas to right-wing billionaire Harlan Crow and court fixer Leonard Leo, two of the central characters in the Supreme Court’s ethics mess. Committee Democrats authorized the subpoenas over a wall of partisan Republican threats and obstruction.
