The first rule of criminal conspiracies is to make damn sure you know what it is you’re sticking your neck out to defend. I have a strong suspicion that there are a lot of GOPers* who have recently learned this rule the hard way. 165 pages worth. *Including 2-5 SCOTUS justices &many lower judges.

Always a trip to do our annual compliance and integrity training, a large part of which basically boils down to: don't do what Clarence Thomas does.
