The man behind the opposition of Roe v. Wade.

What is the symbiosis? Money. Money comes into the Federalist Society and money goes out. Where to? The Republicans running for office. It may be the biggest donor next to the Kochs.

So, with Leonard able to influence political choice, he also attracts ambitious men and women that want a permanent paycheck on the USA Supreme Court. 

IT IS ALWAYS ABOUT MONEY. Either giving it to a power broker or receiving it in one fashion or another.

This is the dynamics at play with the five crackpot judges. They feel they need to LEND their loyalities to Leonard and make his organization the strongest politically for Republicans.

Cozy. Imagine being involved with a supposedly social society organization and be guaranteed a salary of 6 or 7 figures simply by owning the Supreme Court and it's future.
