I FIND IT AMAZING THAT WHAT DONALD TRUMP DID TO MAKE THE HUSH MONEY TRIAL HAPPEN ECHOES HOW THE ROBERTS’ SUPREME COURT HAS NOW BEEN ACTING IN THE SAME WAY.
When I first started to blog on Brucenomics.com I added on my side bar books that talked about how right-wing conservatives were setting up within Academia from coast to coast, a Scheme that even spread as far as Russia late in the twentieth century.
THE SCHEME – SENATOR WHITE HOUSE’ BOOK– A Review
The East Coast Scheme was funded by two conservative right-wing academics’ grants: James M. Buchanan, Nobel Prize winner, and Gordon Tullock at George Mason University.
All during the 20th century these men sought funds to spread their plans to to weaken our Supreme Court. They were Libertarians who wanted to create a smaller government in the United States.
These Libertarian Academics provided federal judges with workshops in Florida every summer – with all expenses paid to lecture them in libertarian views of smaller government, good food, and access to golf courses.
The West Coast Scheme of our century is being now being funded by billionaires. (The Koch family members and other oil barons) The West Coast is now passing piles of dark money to put federal judges aiming ultimately to get favors done for the male members at the Supreme Court.
Back in the late 20th century many right-wing politicized groups were forming, like those in the Tea Party. As a back-of-the book indexer, I created a ten volume book index set for for Tullock and Buchanan. These Tea Party books often had identified the word “liberty” in its titles and pages.
Senator White House calls them ‘Front Groups’
The Senator’s book, The Scheme is far more comprehensive than my earlier blogs. So today I’m going to talk about a few of the pages from Senator Whitehouse’ book because they are is as shocking as the Alioto upside-down American flag.
HOW SCOTUS OPERATES
Starting on Page 124, here is how Senator Whitehouse’ Book is comparable to how Donald Trump’s Hush money trial is similar to how the Supreme Court operates.
The Donald Trump Hush money trial was about hiding the truth about a former President so rich and powerful that he conspired to fool the public that his comtemt of women was not revealed to the public.
The male Justices at SCOTUS also are so powerful they too have taken millions of dollars from dark money billionaires who have an axe to grind.
Justices, Thomas, Alioto, and Gorusch et.al. are not taking cases from the American people – they are making up cases, inviting their ‘Front Groups’ in to find someone who will win their cases for them or lose in court.
These justices do not rely on precedent or real facts of their made-up cases. Justice Thomas is clearly there to kill precedents. And these days, they only talk in turns about hypotheticals and ridiculous upside-down ideas. These justices are so keen to bury precedents and real facts. And then to rake in lots of dark money .
For years they have relied on 5 to 4 court rulings to get their pet peeves accepted by the phony results in their fake cases.
And just like Donald Trump they take all the money these male justices can while the female justices protest against their lost cases and cry.
TWO EXAMPLES
On page 127 there is an example of a union-busting case involving Justice Gorsuch who was appointed in 2017.
The 5 to 4 court results reopened and the Front Groups’ rushed in on the question of unions “fair share dues”. The male Justices created a fast lane to the Supreme majority that they were so eager to throw out the union’s law case. As it turned out even with all the rush they were too late.
Justice Scalia died before the case was decided, depriving the union-busting 5-4 door reopened.
“The party in that second case as with an amicus plaintiff, Mark Janus, a home health aide, was in the Friedrichs case. Justices asked Janus to lose the case. Justice Gorsuch rushed back to the friendly Supreme Court–with no record, no witnesses, no evidence of the likely consequences of the ruling. Gorsuch voted as predicted, and out went a precedent that unions, cities, and states that had been forty years old.”
Note: I have worked in several factories with unions during my life. At the first factory a woman from Europe felt that she was a faster worker than the rest of us when the union was formed. She said she would not pay her share of dues that the rest of us owed. The union lost most of their battles and management took away their pay for overtime. This happened just as I left to drive away to college in the Sixties.

[Think that union happened decades long ago? No! It was in 2018.] And as I write this Justice Alito is perhaps now now airing out his pet peeves on some other fake case.]
