Nicholson/File Photo/Reuters) The Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal from two conservative charities that fundraise in California, challenging demands by that state for a list of financial contributors, which the Trump administration argues violates the two tax-exempt groups’ constitutionally protected freedom of association.
The appeals concern then-California Attorney General Kamala Harris’s conduct in office. Currently, a U.S. senator representing the Golden State, Harris is scheduled to be sworn in as vice president on Jan. 20.
The case is Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Becerra, and a companion case, Thomas More Law Center v. Becerra, which have been consolidated and will be heard together by the court on a date that’s yet to be decided. The Trump administration had urged the high court to take the case in a friend-of-the-court brief.
Americans for Prosperity Foundation (AFPF) and its sister organization, Americans for Prosperity, are influential libertarian-conservative nonprofits funded by businessman Charles Koch and his late brother David Koch that have chapters across the country. The Thomas More Law Center—not to be confused with the Chicago-based public interest law firm, the Thomas More Society—is a conservative Christian public interest law firm based in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The center is represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom.
“All Americans should be free to organize around deeply held beliefs,” Emily Seidel, CEO of AFPF, said in a statement. “Stripping citizens of their privacy is a tool wielded by some in political power to silence their opposition and stifle individuals from engaging in educational and charitable efforts.
“Tens of thousands of Americans each year participate in AFPF’s educational programs, which inspire them to make a greater impact in their community and our country.

So tough for him now with his three little ones—Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Barrett—all squawking for attention. Roberts has to decide which one gets to be the 5th vote against conservatives in this one while assuring the other two that they will get their turns.
So the Supreme Court has time to hear this case, but won’t hear about voter fraud?
Good grief. The petitioners don’t even have standing.
Ahe stil has not given up her senate seat.
This in itself is telling.
why are they not arrested for their TREASON and SEDITION,
coverup of child rape, coverup of ELECTION FRAUD,
and their planning to MURDER Judge Scalia?
SCOTUS <== protectors of rapists, traitors, and
Election Fraud from Roberts’ Malta and Rome.
Of two minds on this as I would LOVE to have Dem groups’ contributors lose their anonymity.
Ain't gonna happen.

Oh, no no no, this only applies to dangerous far right extremist radicals!

There you have it. Dox donors and you’ll get a stern talking to.
Andrew Cuomo already tagged the relevance of the SC.
..............I think tens of millions of people forever lost confidence in the Supreme Court given their obvious cowardice concerning the election.
“The Supreme Court has agreed to hear an appeal from two conservative charities ...”
These lazy losers agreed to hear something? But never mind a stolen election..the President had no standing.
Fuck the Supreme Court. Bunch of useless ass holes. That includes...all 9 of them.
He will hear it to make sure all conservatives are outed.
