Today we got up late,
After a very noisy night!
I popped into work,
And put the bins out.
I put laundry on,
After stripping the bed.
Tried to go shopping,
But aborted due to gridlock.
Tidied the car a bit,
And sorted the ratchet straps.
Made a metal grille,
To keep solids out of a drain.
Popped back out to the shops,
And bought a few snacks.
Had a walk around the scaffold again,
Following the hail storm last night.
Made the bed using new bedding,
The old might be saved for scrap fabric.
Watched a bit of TV,
And some videos.
Been a slower day,
But it needed to be.
Tired now,
Off to bed.

Backed by a cabal of wealthy conservative patrons like industrialist #David #Koch,
banker #Richard #Mellon #Scaife,
and the devout Catholic entrepreneur #Frank #Hanna,
the Federalist Society under Leo became a breeding ground for conservative judges who were recruited at law school,
groomed through the society’s program of events and talks,
and then bound together through their careers.
“The key was to figure out how to develop what I call a ‘pipeline’
— basically, where you recruit students in law school,
you get them through law school,
they come out of law school,
and then you find ways of continuing to involve them in legal policy,” Leo later explained.
In 2005, the Federalist Society began openly advocating for #John #Roberts
— a former member
— to be nominated to fill a vacant seat at the Supreme Court,
the first time it had campaigned publicly for a particular candidate.
A few months later, its sway had grown so much that it torpedoed President George W. Bush’s own preferred candidate for another vacant seat on the Supreme Court
— #Harriet #Miers, a judge and close friend of the president who wasn’t a member of the Federalist Society
— and pressured him to nominate #Samuel #Alito, one of its members, in her place.
Leo worked closely with the "Judicial Confirmation Network",
a new nonprofit organization set up using funds from #Robin #Arkley, a California businessman known as the
“foreclosure king,” who had made billions buying up mortgages of people in financial difficulties.
The idea for #JCN had been hatched at a dinner in Washington attended by Leo and Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia shortly after Bush’s reelection in late 2004.
JCN spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on radio and online advertisement to shape public opinion.
It was run by #Neil and #Ann #Corkery, a couple who had been members of #Opus #Dei since at least the eighties.
Neil had been a critical figure in getting a new residence for male, celibate members of the Catholic movement built in Reston, Virginia.
“Opus Dei members preach their faith through their work as well as the friendships they develop,” Ann explained.
She and her husband would later preach their faith by becoming central figures in a series of nonprofits that would channel dark money for Leo’s efforts.

What Is the True Story Behind ‘Harriet’?

Excellent, that they had an open submission process, instead of just offering the work to some white guy. Philadelphia to get half-million-dollar statue of Harriet Tubman in 2025.
