Clarence Thomas is not alone. Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch has also benefitted financially from parties with an interest in the high court’s business while neglecting to disclose the relationship, growing concerns over corruption within the institution.

A celebration to mark the 50th anniversary of David Bowie’s album Aladdin Sane will be hosted in London.
The Aladdin Sane: 50 Years exhibition will mark half a century since the 1973 release of the singer’s sixth studio album.

Stars: Tom Berenger, Kristen Hager, Paul Ben-Victor, Jimmy LeBlanc, Mark Sivertsen, Brian Duffy, Ace Gibson, Ryan Homchick, Caroline Portu, Erica McDermott | Written and Directed by John Barr
Retired war veteran Jim Reed (Berenger) heads out on a hunting trip in the Allagash backcountry of Maine but when an accident finds him face-to-face with the corpse of a dead woman and a duffle bag packed with stolen money he soon finds himself in a web of deceit and murder. Fighting both extreme cold and a gang of bloodthirsty bank robbers, Reed must put all of his military training into action in an ice-cold game of cat-and-mouse.
The debut feature for cinematographer John Barr, Blood and Money is clearly modelled after the films of the Coen Brothers but without any of the style or panache of that duos film – Barr seemingly thinking the noir-ish characters and snowy setting are what mark out the Coen’s work.

A number of prominent combat veteran organizations slammed the Republican party’s presidential nominee Donald Trump on Monday after he criticized the Muslim-American parents of an Army captain killed in Iraq while saving his fellow soldiers. The Veterans of Foreign Wars (Vfw), the nation’s oldest and largest veterans organization, said Trump was out of bounds for insulting Gold Star parents. “Election year or not, the Vfw will not tolerate anyone berating a Gold Star family member for exercising his or her right of speech or expression,” Vfw leader Brian Duffy said in a statement.
