" We contemplated how to cover the judicary" , then the @propublica reporter described the newsgathering process on Justice Clarence Thomas disclosures , or lack there of them when it came to real estate and fancy trips. The topic moved social and mainstream media /1

/2 even when covering other newsworthy issues, @propublica could not swing youTube or other social media they way they could move local newspapers to pick up the topic, until now. If ever newsrooms could see reporting on judges is important , this is it ...

/3 now @propublica reporting needs to be locally applied, as in what the @DavisVanguard has been doing with the Tainted Trials, Tarnished Headlines, Stolen Justice series as we get to Judge disclosures in @SCSCourt

/4 BBMP reporters from the San Jose Mercury and NBC news never bothered to do the work. So they failed to find:
1. Jim Towery concealed income he made from Hoge Fenton when he worked @StateBarCA and was charged with investigating Thomas Girardi in 2010.

/5 Judge Towery ommitted to disclose the income his wife, Karyn Sinunu Towery made as a Santa Clara County District Attorney who later became a #BBMP member and Grand Juror indicitng Sheriff Laurie Smith for the 2018 election they were all tainting.

/6 Judges Geffon, Flint and Hendrickson hold an uncomfortable amount of stock in Netflix, PayPal Real Estate Reits, Google, Cisco, and Tabacco , stock they could not afford on a $200, 000 public wage.

So now we do the math BBMP reporters would not do.
