Which two SCOTUS judges do folks think are paid subscribers to Erick Erickson's newsletter?
You are not alone.

Right now, staff in the White House, at least one cabinet secretary two cabinet secretaries, multiple senators and congressmen, two former Speakers of the House, at least one two Supreme Court Justices, a dozen Circuit and District Court Judges, six governors that I know of, a bunch of state legislators, Supreme and appellate court Justices and judges in multiple states, some really famous theologians, journalists, and public policy makers, and at least one Academy Award winner are all reading the Show Notes that went out at noon.
