Leonard Leo has managed to create a veneer of legal neutrality with the Federalist Society, but behind the scenes (and with lots of undisclosed money), he's a Republican political operative. See this extensive @washingtonpost investigation: washingtonpost.com/graphics/2019/…
And remember it was Leo ally Ed Whelan that pushed the other attacker Zillowgate nonsense about Kavanaugh and Dr. Ford, and though Whelan apologized, this was the Republican party line for how they could believe Dr. Ford was "mistaken" and vote for Kavanaugh.
And the WaPo report shows that Leo is behind the fundraising the for Judicial Crisis Network, which brings huge, undisclosed money to support Republican Supreme Court and appeals Justices and attacks Democrats. It's partisanship pure and simple.
