US Senate panel chair issues subpoena in Supreme Court ethics probe
Quick Glance: Investigation into Gifts to Supreme Court Justices: Leo Refuses Senate Subpoena
  • As part of a months-long inquiry into undisclosed gifts to Supreme Court justices, the Senate Judiciary Committee sent a subpoena to conservative judicial activist Leonard Leo on Thursday, which he promptly rejected as “politically motivated.”

  • Following reports that Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel A. Alito Jr. accepted free luxury travel and gifts from Crow, Leo, and conservative donor Robin Arkley II without disclosure, the committee voted to authorize subpoenas for Leo and Texas billionaire Harlan Crow along party lines.

  • Democrats on the committee initiated an investigation into the justices' relationships with private benefactors after ProPublica's April report last year revealed Thomas' failure to disclose free luxury vacations and private jet travel from Crow over many years, and Leo's arrangement of a luxury fishing trip for Alito in 2008.

  • With Leo's rejection, Democrats would need to hold a Senate vote to seek court enforcement of the subpoena - a nearly impossible task in a narrowly divided chamber requiring 60 votes to break a filibuster.

Quick Glance: GOP Rep. Turner: Accusations of Russian Propaganda Spread Among Republicans
  • The congressman stated that it is 'absolutely true' that Russia's anti-Ukraine messaging has 'infected' his party's base.

  • Mike Turner, a Republican representative, accused some of his colleagues of spreading Russian propaganda 'on the House floor' amid Vladimir Putin's invasion of Ukraine.

  • Turner's comments align with an earlier assertion by another Republican and chair of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Michael McCaul, who mentioned that Russian propaganda has infiltrated the United States and affected a significant portion of his party's base.

  • McCaul attributed the dissemination of Russian propaganda to conservative media outlets, including 'nighttime entertainment shows' that echo talking points used by Russian state media.
