      That he’s reported. Who knows what else isn’t on the radar yet, because that corrupt fucker keeps “misremembering” to report gifts like private school tuition, RV loans that get forgiven, and several vacations a year.

      Maybe a better approach would be to distribute the gifts equally amongst the justices. That way they could all graft equally. Equal graft under the law!
