Senator Whitehouse says conservative Supreme Court justices consistently rule for donor interests

Rhode Island Senator Sheldon Whitehouse says continuing floor remarks on alleged capture of Supreme Court Justices by conservative interests that evidence consistently revealed a pattern where Federalist Society justices on the court would distort precedent and manipulate legal facts to favor big right-wing donor interests, culminating in the Dobbs case which revoked women's constitutional right to choose, despite decades of precedent, after three justices were appointed from a list seemingly prepared by Leonard Leo and the Federalist Society under President Donald Trump, leading to concerns about the undermining of fundamental legal principles as noted by Justice Elena Kagan.
