WE ARE VERY PROUD OF HIM AND RODE ISLAND. I THINK RHODE ISLANDERS ARE EQUALLY PROUD. ON AN UNRELATED SUBJECT, IT RELATES TO YESTERDAY'S ACTIVITIES. YOU CAN RELAX A MOMENT. A LOT WAS SAID ABOUT DARK MONEY BY OUR REPUBLICAN FRIENDS TO THE POINT WHERE ONE OF THE HEADLINES READ REPUBLICANS HAMMER DARK MONEY ROOTS. I WILL BE THE FIRST TO CONCEDE THERE IS DARK MONEY ON BOTH SIDES. I HOPE WE CAN GET RID OF IT SHORTLY ON BOTH SIDES. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE I BELIEVE BETWEEN DARK MONEY ROOTING FOR SOMEONE AND RIGHT WING DARK MONEY INTERESTS AND HAVING A ROLE IN ACTUALLY PICKING THE LAST THREE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT THEY HAD A ROLE IN DOING THAT? WE KNOW BECAUSE IT WAS PRETTY STRAIGHTFORWARD STUFF. THE JUDGES WERE ALL PICKED BY THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY. SENATOR ORRIN HATCH SAID SOME OF PRESIDENT TRUMP OUTSOURCED HIS NOMINEES. THE COFOUNDER OF THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY SAID THEY RELIED ON THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY TO COME UP WITH QUALIFIED NOMINEES. AND THEN DAN MCGANN SAID, I HAVE BEEN A MEMBER OF THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY SINCE LOSS, -- LAW SCHOOL. THERE IS PRETTY CLEAR AND BROAD AGREEMENT THAT THE SELECTION PROCESS TOOK PLACE OUT OF THE PUBLIC EYE AND HAD DARK MONEY INTERESTS. HERE IS LAURA INGRAHAM ON FOX NEWS CONCERNED ABOUT ABORTION CASES. WE HAVE SIX NOMINEES ON THE SUPREME COURT, IF THIS COURT CANNOT DO THE RIGHT THING I THINK IT IS TIME TO CIRCUMSCRIBE THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT. WE HAVE PEOPLE WHO ARE IN THE POSITION BEHIND THE SCENES WHO KNOW THAT THEY GOT THERE AFTER ALL OF THE MONEY. THEY ARE THREATENING TO DO WHAT THEY CONSIDER THE RIGHT THING, THEY WILL BE PUNISHED BY CIRCUMSCRIBING THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURT. THAT IS BIG TALK BUT IT IS BACKED UP BY PRETTY BIG DOLLARS. THE MONEY THEY CAME INTO THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY THAT CAME IN FROM THE DONORS TRUST, WHICH IS BEEN DESCRIBED AS THE DARK MONEY ATM OF THE RIGHT, A COKE BROTHERS AFFILIATED ASSOCIATION. BY 2019 WHEN ITS OPERATION WAS IN FULL SWING GOT $7 MILLION. THAT IS THE JOB OF DONORS TRUST WHICH IS TO IDENTIFY THE DONORS. $7 MILLION IS QUITE A LOT OF MONEY IN THE FEDERALIST SOCIETY WAS NOT ALONE. WRITE DOWN THE HALLWAY IS SOMETHING CALLED -- AND WRITE DOWN THAT HALLWAY THERE IS EVEN MORE MONEY POURING IN. HERE IS HOW MUCH THAT WENT INTO THE LAST THREE NOMINATION VIA THE JUDICIAL CRISIS NETWORK. $21 MILLION FOR GORSUCH, 17,000,002 KAVANAUGH AND 14 MILLION INTO THE BARNETT. WE DON'T KNOW THE ACTUAL DONOR IS. IT COULD BE THE SAME DONOR. I THINK IT MATTERS WHEN PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO INFLUENCE THE MAKEUP OF THE COURT THAT THE PUBLIC UNDERSTANDS WHAT BUSINESS THEY MAY HAVE BEFORE THE COURT. THEY DID NOT STOP WITH THE TRUMP NOMINEES. THEY GOT UP ON THE AIR IT DARK MONEY GROUP USING DARK MONEY TO ACCUSE BIDEN SUPREME COURT NOMINEE, A PLAYER TO BE NAMED TO BATTER, OF BEING A TOOL OF LIBERAL ACTIVIST DARK MONEY. THIS IS A SCREENSHOT -- LATER -- THE 501(C)(3) GETS A TAX REDUCTION. AND SURE ENOUGH, THERE IS A 501(C) FUN. THEY FILED UNDER CORPORATION LAW TO OPERATE UNDER WHAT THEY CALLED FOR TISHA'S NAME. THERE IS A JUDICIAL CRISIS NETWORK WITH A FICTITIOUS NAME. IT HAS THETHEY EVEN HAVE NEW ONES WHERE YOU THERE ARE EIGHT ORGANIZATIONS THAT ARE SIMPLY ONE ORGANIZATION WITH LAWYERS, WITHOUT PIERCING THE CORPORATE VEIL. IT RUNS BACK AND FORTH WITH THREE GROUPS WITH CRC GRABBERS THAT TAKE MONEY TO THESE ORGANIZATIONS FOR THEIR PLANNING STRATEGIES. THIS IS THE COMMAND CENTER AND THIS IS THE OPERATIONAL TORSO OF THE CHART. SO I SHOW THIS ALL BECAUSE IT SHOWS CONSIDERABLE EFFORT WHEN SOMEONE GOES TO THAT MUCH TROUBLE TO CREATE THAT MANY ORGANIZATIONS TO HIDE HOW MUCH MONEY THEY SPEND TO CONTROL THE NOMINATION TOOK COURT. IT IS NO SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY IN THE ORIGINAL WASHINGTON POST RESEARCH THEY PEGGED IT AT $250 MILLION. FURTHER RESEARCH SAID IT WAS ACTUALLY $400 MILLION AND THEY HAVE REASON TO BELIEVE IT IS EVEN HIGHER THAN THAT. $400 MILLION FUNDING CONSERVING -- CONSERVATIVE ACTIVE CAMPAIGN TO REDO THE NATION'S COURTS. THAT OPERATION IS A VERY DIFFERENT THING THAN A GROUP, I WANT TO MAKE SURE THIS DIFFERENCE IS CLEAR. OUR FRIENDS ON THE REPUBLICAN SIDE MAKE DARK MONEY SUCH A FOCUS OF THEIR QUESTIONING. THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ROOTING FOR SOMEONE AND CAN TURNING THE TURNSTILE. CONTROLLING THE FUNDING OF A POLITICAL CAMPAIGN TO PURSUE VOTES ON THE COURT AND ACTUALLY ONCE YOU GET ON COURT, WORKING WITH THE JUDICIARY ITSELF TO TRY AND CLEAN UP THE MESS OF THAT SAME ANONYMOUS MONEY BEFORE THE COURT THROUGH PHONY FUND GROUPS. OR IF IT'S AN IMPORTANT CASE, A FULL ARMADA OF FUNDING. BECAUSE THIS IS A PUBLIC FORUM AND WE HAVE HEARD ALL OF THAT HAMMERING OF DARK MONEY GROUPS I WANTED TO MAKE SURE IT WAS CLEAR HOW THIS GAME WAS PLAYED AND WHAT THE DIFFERENCES IN THE WAY THE TWO SIDES PLAY IT. SO NOW, BACK TO OUR BUSINESS. YOU HAVE SERVED AS A TRIAL COURT JUDGE? JUDGE JACKSON:
