ceo of one of the biggest la firms with a pretty robust practice, supreme cour practice, but for the court. so, you know, i reached ou when i saw that this happened, this timing, was just one bi coincidence or what exactl happened here? i did speak with mr. duffy, he told me that he did become aware of who the owner was throughout the course of this, but it s still unclear exactly when that happened like i said, there was this bi new york times story in march. this, then, went through in may, so it was two months befor that gorsuch actually wa identified as the owner of thi property here is the problem, chris there s no problem here, technically. there is no violation, no laws were broken, and according t ethics experts, that is th problem, that this doesn t violate anything that you ca have a transaction like this take place with this timing an with someone with such interes before the court and have it b
identified as the owner of thi property here is the problem, chris there s no problem here, technically. there is no violation, no laws were broken, and according t ethics experts, that is th problem, that this doesn t violate anything that you ca have a transaction like this take place with this timing an with someone with such interes before the court and have it b completely opaque. yeah, so that s interesting to me. he didn t own this outright, i was a partnership, and there were some entity created to be the owner of that, that entity then sold it, then dispersed the profits to the people that were part of the partnership and in dispersing them, it ceased to exist, basically and so, in a very, ver technical level, he leaves the buyer blank because he just go the money from the partnership dispersing the money and everything is officially by th book, from the standards o what the disclosure requires and yet, we know nothing about the fact that one of the heads of the biggest law
