47. They disrespected RBG the second they named Brendan Sullivan as chairman

Mar 2024

Best known for being Ollie North's "don't recall" lawyer, his family was the Sullivan in Sullivan & Cromwell.

The firm that represented Nazi interests in the U.S. before, during - and even after the war.

But they've got God's unlisted phone number, so it figures they'd get their claws even into RBG.
