A"nonpartisan" project accusing conservative Supreme Court justices of ethics violations while highlighting right-leaning"dark money" is now housed under a charity bankrolling groups in the largest secretive Democratic-linked donor network in the United States.

RDP personnel have published multiple articles pointing out purported right-leaning dark money connections, including between Thomas and Leonard Leo, co-chairman of the board of the Federalist Society, a major conservative legal group. RDP published an op-ed Monday in the American Prospect, a"progressive" website, urging Thomas and Alito once more to recuse from a case on funding the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

Hauser did not answer a follow-up series of questions from the Washington Examiner on Goodnation and RDP funders. Meanwhile, prior to Goodnation stepping in, RDP had been sponsored since 2016 by the Center for Economic and Policy Research, a left-wing think tank, according to tax forms. Spokesman for the think tank Dan Beeton told the Washington Examiner RDP was"independently run, managed, and financed."
