Guess who got a huge sum from Leonard Leo’s “Marble Freedom Trust” fund? Alex Marshall, $750K+. Who’s Alex? He’s married to Maria Marshall, who’s been a Senior VP at Leo’s CRC Advisors and who previously worked directly for him at the Federalist Society Image Maria Marshall has also had a firm called YAS LLC that received $300K for consulting from Leonard Leo's Rule of Law Trust in 2018, when she was working as the Director  of Operations in the Office of the Federalist Society's Executive VP, Leo. h/t early sleuthing @mrspanstreppon

We already know that Brett Kavanaugh has lied to the Senate while under oath. He should be impeached not confirmed to the Supreme Court. What else could he be lying about?
#Thread #Kavanaugh In 2004 and 2006, Kavanaugh swore to the Senate that he never received any emails referencing or containing materials drafted by Democratic staff which had been stolen by a GOP Senate staffer, Manuel Miranda, between 2001-2003.
