I have to admit to being somewhat about this article.
Why on earth would anyone think that "little lies point to bigger lies" will have any weight in this era of normalized lying? Our liar-in-chief is popping them out at an average of over 7 per day, and is showing signs of accelerating.
We live in a post-truth nation. Why should anyone care if a member of SCOTUS lies? Lying is apparently no longer a morally frowned-upon action. It is defended and justified - or people simply deny it exists - or do a "whataboutism."
And it's not just our nation...it's happening in many developed countries.
