The fullest accounting yet shows how Thomas has secretly reaped the benefits from a network of wealthy and well-connected patrons that is far more extensive than previously understood.
It’s horrific that we’ve arrived at a place where you can read about any conservative in power being caught red-handed committing any crime, and without even looking, you can be 100% sure that Republicans will ignore or deny the problem.
As all this stuff comes out and gets verified, I keep naively thinking that we will see these people face consequences soon. Eventually someone will have to take action and remove him from his position, but as time passes, nothing happens. The news cycle moves on, and the general population forgets.
It’s shit like this that further drives me into nihilism.

Zero integrity.
