on an array of trips funded by Harlan Crow, a Dallas businessman. The publication said Thomas typically spends about a week every summer at Crow’s private resort in the Adirondacks. It said the justice also has vacationed at Crow’s ranch in East Texas and has joined Crow at the Bohemian Grove, an exclusive all-male retreat in California.
In a statement, Crow acknowledged that he has extended “hospitality” to the Thomases “over the years” but said the couple “never asked for any of this hospitality” and that he has not tried to influence the justice on matters before the court. Judges are prohibited from accepting gifts from anyone with business before the court. Until recently, however, the judicial branch had not clearly defined an exemption for gifts considered “personal hospitality.”
Gifts such as an overnight stay at a personal vacation home owned by a friend remain exempt from reporting requirements. But the revised rules require disclosure when judges are treated to stays at commercial properties, such as hotels, ski resorts or corporate hunting lodges. The changes also clarify that judges must report travel by private jet.According to ProPublica, Thomas’s trips funded by Crow do not appear on his financial disclosures.
That much time with Ginni is punishment enough.
traitors
It’s time him and his wife pay jail time for their crimes
Now, do everyone else in DC.
Trash American Judges... Roaches... The worst thing is that Thomas took the royal place for the minority and he has tarnished the honor of that minority with heinous hypocrisy.
Need to know who his expert court advisors were.
according to a new report, oh my!
I have never liked this man. It saddens me that he has been given so much power that it has caused him to forget where he comes from and who he is. He has been blessed and instead of uplifting the black community he seems to make it his mission to constantly tear it down. 😔
Have you looked into the sources of income for all the Justices?
Creep
Wait until you hear about the millions of dollars Biden Inc has accepted from the Chinese communist government.
Having a rich friend you vacation with is legal. WAPO has one standard of reporting for Republicans and another for Democrats.
Add the to the list of racists that refuse to read the rules and push talking points to destroy a black man that the Left set out to destroy from the second he was nominated. Pathetic.
Why are you stepping around obvious news stories to bring US this? WaPo is a joke.
Liars!
The picture seems to reflect Justice Thomas reacting to a suggestion that we're all equal in the eyes of the law.
They were disclosed in the boat and flight manifests
He believes he is untouchable...is he?
So its nothing new...I wonder why bring it up now?
Just horrible. The most unjust justice.
Take him off, it’s unbelievably obvious he’s a partisan judge and cares nothing for the will of the people. Corrupt to the core.
Isn’t that illegal and represent immediate dismissal?
Politics is a cutthroat institution and the media is handing out the knives.
GOPSeditiousTraitors GOPCorruption
Don't be surprised thats the GOP TRUMP CULT
There is nothing improper here. You are the new National Enquirer.
Boston Legal was fiction but it exposed this problem with SCOTUS years ago. Life really is stranger than fiction.
Democrats do that all the time.
Really, why are you representing this after 2 decades?
So many criminals in power in America, it's a shame
Barack Obama excepted $30 million from the CCP
He doesn’t have to see Nancy Pelosi
An not against law, if he didn’t do favors etc then who gives a shit
Well, didn't they get him in his seat by crushing Anita Hill?
FAKE News ! Dems are desperate!
Uh oh! There is something rotten in Denmark, or there is a hair on my can..
Why are you picking on a black man? Racists.
Impeach
And Hunter...AF1?
Laughing all the way to the bank
. ...no need to besmirch conservative Clarence. ...he lives the life of a homeless drifter. .
What a surprise
Corrupt
What a jerk
Nobody cares
A super yacht! Omg
GOP want to investigate someone , Clarence Thom should a be it
No wonder ClarenceThomas didn’t recuse from J6 appeals, etc. his vote was paid for in advance!
Denied by the 'donor' - your headline, as usual, misrepresents facts. nycscribe
Nothing to see here. 😡🤬
Shame
So will he have the integrity to resign? Or is there anything the Chief Justice can do?
Which law states you can't have a friend of 30+ years that you vacation with There has been shown NO CONNECTION to the Justice in any present or past cases... This is Liberal/Progressive RACISTS attacking a Conservative Black Man who dared challenge the DNC Plantation...
Justice Thomas and his charming wife Ginny should be stopped. The game they are playing and getting away with is dangerous.
The Senate Judiciary Committee should launch an immediate investigation... and mandate a Supreme Court ethics code. ⚖️ SupremeCourtEthicsCode
Sleep with the fish's
This little piggy needs to go to prison. With the little piggy wife.
I am for prosecuting this offense, but only if the penalty is Death! Lets send a signal that profiteering from your position is not acceptable. I am against prosecution just so the Dems can put in a new judge.
He offered out of the goodness of his heart.
the “big guy” got 10%
Good for them.
Someone needs to guard this man the left will stop at nothing to own the Supreme Court!!!
He should resign immediately. Shameful
They went with their $B friend who was going anyway. Probably not much incremental expense incurred on their behalf.
Dang you guys are desperate to replace a conservative with a liberal so the court will shift in your favor
I hate to break it to the court justice, but bribery is bribery regardless of whether or not they ask for a favor. Furthermore, if you make decisions which benefit those people that are offering you those favors, it brings into question the integrity of the Court of Law.
What have democrat justices received from donors?
This cannot be permitted from any Supreme Court justice, whether liberal or conservative. He should be impeached, and if a liberal justice does the same thing, they should also be impeached.
Thomas' wife was involved in the insurection and he did not recuse himself, no consequences. The Roberts court is a lawless court who's ethics would disqualify them from minimum wage jobs.
Good thing BillClinton and HillaryClinton paid for all their own travel or I’m sure you’d be all over them and their foundation too.
witch hunt
Did he accept free trips on the pedophile express to Epstein’s island like the Democrats?
The Left does their racist job again trying to get a conservative Black man while they let the thieves at BLM off the hook.
Thomas accepted bribes. This is a crime. Thomas must be charged criminally. Thomas must resign.
Dude needs to resign! Most corrupt judge ever, plus the crazy wife! I can deal with the others i guess (even though the handmade wants to do away with IVF that brought me beautiful twin girls) Roberts should force him out, still would be tilted conservative without him.
Seems Ginni and Clarence have a Lot of unreported money and Luxuries to be held accountable for!
Biden took money from China ..... look were that's gotten us .... spy planes roaming freely
And that is not called corruption, or bribery or anything else illegal?
Pro publica, like wapo, is in bed with democrats. Can't be believed.
Lawless bullying terroristic corrupt smh without punishment
Republicans won’t impeach him. They are comfortable with this.
We all know he should never have been confirmed...but now we have to live with it FOREVER
And there is nothing you can do about it. LOL
HE WILL RETIRE IN 3 WEEKS ....watch!!!
Now, go after RepMaxineWaters too!
well there's no surprise there because he's got power he don't have to do whatever nothing you don't want to do
SCOTUSIsCompromised
Criminal. Impeach!
ImpeachClarenceThomas
Not all politicians are bought with cash, some just really nice gifts.
His wife makes me sick and him to
BethurumTim Now imagine what would happen if Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson was being carted around on George Soros’ yacht. The entire right and most of the media would come down on her like an avalanche.
Guess I better cancel that fishing trip a wealthy friend invited me to attend.
Soros has been busy.
From abroad there are far to many links between Justices and politician money. Indépendance of justice is to only way to preserve democracy
Change the name of the Justice to Kagan or Sotomayor, and the name of the donor to Soros. Then think about how Fox would react. Clarence Thomas Secretly Accepted Luxury Trips From GOP Donor — ProPublica
“They Make the Rules” doesn’t mean they APPLY TO THEM!—RISE UP Americans!—-NOTHING WILL CHANGE UNLESS “WE THE PEOPLE”CHANGE IT! Government Corruption Will Not Change, We Have To Fix It!
we are having a life....
so he has a sugar daddy
Judge and Mrs. Trash. They both belong in jail.
Bought judges.. what a shock
What’s your point?
Now do Nancy Pelosi Can’t have it both ways
ImpeachClarenceThomas
Please do a story outlining the mechanisms to impeach a Supreme Court justice.
Expell this behavior.
Another attack drivel
We knew about this man for a very long time. Nobody wanted to listen to the warning. But Crow said they did not discuss cases so I guess its okay
And Biden collected Millions from all over the Globe and did not report it,
No news here. Good luck finding ANYONE with a major role in any branch of the Federal government who hasn't done this or far worse (insider trading tips, high paid private sector jobs and speaking deals, contributions to 'charitable' foundations after they leave office).
Biden accepted millions from China. Obama accepted 30 million from a communist fugitive. Sounds like Clarence is just living under the lower standards set by Democrats. What's good for the goose....
As corrupt as his shrew old lady is racist, and Crows a liar, he knows he’s benefited and the real gag is he hates the unqualified thug as much as he hates every other Black dude in the Metroplex and the country, after all he is a republican donor, ugh.
CleanItUp NoOnesAboveTheLaw
Just more perks to the millions of right-wing dollars that have flowed into the Thomas household for years.
HAPANA SIRI YA WATU WAWILI METHALI/PROVERBS.
Questions: 1) to Thomas: 'What's your rate? $500k or $600k?' 2) to other justices: 'Does the rate go up as a Justice gains more experience?' and 'Why are you still serving a clearly corrupt organization?' 3) to Chief Roberts: 'Are you proud of this?' SCOTUSHasFallen /sarcasm
Did all those Dem politicians disclose their Pedo island vacations paid for by Epstein?
Yeah and you know happens next nothing. Nothing will ever happen to these people some big outcry on social media and that will be it
Nothing will happen to 2 corrupt traitors
🤷♂️
It’s called having friends and a life. I remember Obama being on a certain billionaire’s yacht quite a bit.
What report? A black man is not allowed to have rich friends in America? His crime is just being black.
LockHimUp He should have been booted off the Court long ago for failing to disclose his wife's income, which was perjury. When called on it, he said he didn't understand the question.
operationmockingbird has another target. 🤡🤡🤡
Justice Thomas needs to resign and be held accountable.
Now do BidenCrimeFamilly and China.
davidminpdx He also joined a conspiracy to overthrow the government of the United States when he ruled against revealing evidence of his wife’s involvement in the January 6th attempted coup.
WP wants sooo bad to get CT to resign. Desperatation is ugly.
These “gifts” (bribes/payoffs/inducements) are of such high value the IRS should conduct an audit ASAP. It is probable he owes some steep fines & penalties in addition to back taxes.
Can we collectively agree, these trips, currying favor of Thomas, by Harlan Crow, smells of rot and rubbish… how in hell are we supposed to have faith, in a corrupted Supreme Court, that an impeached insurrectionist, installed 3 radicals, to corrupt the rule of law.
In one word: COMPROMISED.
So is other Supreme Court Justice leaders.
Anita was right.
The GOP leadership and rank and file don’t care. And NOTHING will be done. They don’t want to jeopardize their own perks.
Dude gotta go.
What ? It’s a paid Republican judge, nothing to see here folks.
Targeting a black justice on the Supreme Court is extremely racist.
Clarence Thomas’s legacy will be corruption, insurrection, Sexual harassment and oh yeah pubic hair
You guys ever find out who leaked the abortion ruling?
pk64475 The Supreme Court republicans are compromised! SCOTUSblog scotusreporter USSupremeCourt SCOTUSblogposts SCOTUS101 SCOTUSambitions Thomas Clarence is compromised, due to special favors granted to him from Republicans in luxury vacations.
Impeach this miscreant!
Propaganda
'According to a new report' lol
An intellectually mediocre, self-hating, fascism-loving, sexual harasser accepted expensive illegal gifts… perhaps he should have accepted only a Coke
Not one Democrat has been arrested for any crime they have committed yet Republicans face prosecution on a daily bases and J6'ers are roiting in jail. When will the Republicans grow a spine and fight back.
Looks like Clarence just had this summer’s vacation ruined
This is not the first time Clarence Thomas violates disclosure laws. He is the most corrupt government official, yet he is a Supreme Court Justice!! This happens because the US Supreme Court doesn't have Rules of Ethical Conduct. The Supreme Court is not a pantheon of Gods!
So? What's mean? Fired?
Ok. This should all be an immense violation of ethics and code of conduct. I mean if this isn't an impeachable offense, what is?
Exactly zero people are surprised about this
Of course he has
Clarence Thomas and his ho are as corrupt as the trump crime family. That says a lot.
Propublica’s tax returns
moonbeamhanson Fox News covering this, “Hunter Biden!”
ProPublica reported Thursday on an array of trips funded by Harlan Crow, a Dallas businessman. The publication said Thomas typically spends about a week every summer at Crow’s private resort in the Adirondacks.
