Yes, Clarence Thomas (likely) violated the law by not disclosing his Koch summit & Bohemian Grove trips.
@justinelliott & @js_kaplan have an explainer.
This is one reason the usual Thomas defenders have been verrrrry quiet on this story.

This NC republican-fascist law absolutely violates the 4th, 5th and 6th Amendments, and likely the 1st Amendment.
Be watchful.

Pay attention!
This👇🏻 is #NorthCarolina where they want to bring the curtain down on #transparency
Republicans did the same thing in Florida. And, I started to look at all the Red states and laws that have been passed and they're all doing it. Arkansas limited the FOIA too along with a few other no-good things, Texas as well.

Other than the fact that he has no leadership skills, is inarticulate, has an abrasive personality, is reviled outside the MAGA base, disorganized, dishonest, and unintelligent, Jim Jordan is a great candidate for Speaker. He would guarantee a 20-25 seat Dem pickup in 2024.

Total student loan debt that would have been erased for millions of Americans: $400 billion
Total cost of the Trump tax cuts that largely benefited the wealthy and corporations: $1.9 trillion
This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.
