Justice Clarence Thomas and his wife, conservative activist Ginni Thomas, have gone on several luxury trips involving travel subsidized by and stays at properties owned by a GOP megadonor, according to a new bombshell ProPublica report

The hospitality was not disclosed on Thomas’ public financial filings with the Supreme Court, ProPublica said. The report of the connection between Thomas and conservative businessman Harlan Crow is already adding to calls that Congress investigate potential ethical lapses. Key Senate Democrats were previously mulling using this year’s funding legislation for the Supreme Court to pressure the justices to adopt some sort of ethics code.

The justice has also been the subject of scrutiny for the political activities of his wife, including for texts she exchanged with key players in former President Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 presidential election. Crow, a Dallas businessman with deep connections to Republican politics, has contributed more than $10 million in publicly disclosed political contributions, ProPublica reported.

Get rid of Clarence..he disrespected Anita Hill and his bully racist wife have is dum butt breaking the law .

Misleading headlines, lies and propaganda is standard fare from CNN...But this is exceptionally weak and pathetic even from CNN

Awesome... set another precedent you will utterly regret in 2 years...

Toolkit targetting enemies.

Ginni was involved in coordinating Jan 6 th attack . Now that’s a strange couple .. A Black judge married to an insurrectionist rlection denier who consorts with White Supremacists

So what 😴

Democrats; the inventor of the KKK, totally going after a black SCOTUS judge. Did not see that one coming…

What a hypocrite

Yeah as we know the Vice President Harris and President Biden along with Obama’s family did the same thing but I guess this only affects Republicans

RNN still trying to go after this man merely on the color of his skin... RacistNewsNetwork WhatDoesLebronThink

Why are you being so racist?

And what's your f****** point Joe Biden goes on vacation every weekend

Has Clarence Thomas followed the Constitution in his decisions

Nothing wrong with what he did. Look at what Biden is doing. Now that is criminal.

Good for them.

When are you racist pieces of dog excrement going to discontinue the high-tech lynching of Justice Thomas?

The Problem with Justice Clarence Thomas and How to Fix It? A must read long thread 🧵

What about the millions to the Biden’s from China? Not just a free vacation but millions to the big guy.

He went fishing, on the other side Biden took millions from communist china in a payoff

Democrats trying again to take a black man down

No digan mamdas

The Democratic Party did the same. Your point?

This is insane, but like usual so is everything the Left wing says. So what? You don't think most of DC does this very same thing? LOL

I am bothered but not shocked.

So

Never put a minority or trust them in position of power. I’m a minority, I would know. Putting a minority individual in such position among majority, they lose their sense of identity and start behaving like the majority, corrupt.

CNN you’re pathetic and desperate to boot! Lol

NO ONE CARES

I stand with Judge Thomas.

So

You got anything on Hunter’s laptop to report?

It cannot stop Donald J Trump from coming back to fix America 🇺🇸 in 2024 MAGA

Fake news back at it again

Impeach him!!!!!!!!

FactsAboutJesus परमेश्वर अमर है, लेकिन ईसा मसीह जी की मृत्यु हुई क्यों जानने के लिए पढ़िए पवित्र पुस्तक ज्ञान गंगा। Supreme God Kabir

who care of justice systems.

linana666 Interesting this.

So what? context matters. are they friends this is not inherently problematic.

Corrupt as fvck for literally decades

Donors shouldn’t be allowed to fund specific political candidates…one big fund for all politicians and let the best person win. If you have to use money for an advantage, you probably shouldn’t be leading anything close to a district, state, country, etc. IMO

All legal.

Shut up. So ridiculous

So what

graffanati19 THEY'RE SCARED

Many powerful politicians and power donors when to Jeffery Epstein Island, why are Democrats worried about a justice who's friend invited he and his wife to their home.

Left wing propaganda. Getting paid by the Biden Administration

Why you attacking a Black man

And? We can't vacation with our friends?

bbrashaw He is a drunk

Look into the BIDEN crime family FFS!!!

This is so awesome finally maybe we should look at the Clinton itineraries for the past 20 years I'm sure it's disgusting

Lol

Fake news CNN!!!!

More Misinformation from the FAKE NEWS MSM! They never learn!

Yea, only the Biden’s can receive money and gifts 🤦‍♂️🤡🤡🤡

Did you hear that from cnn+😆😆😆

Hunter

The one thing that I dislike about today's Republican,they'll never say something is wrong or illegal or not morally right,they'll rather just downplay it as if it was nothing,Jan 6th oh they where touring the Capital,Trump indictment Why they bringing up that old as crime 🤦🏿‍♂️

Welldone

Impeach or Resign. Even the appearance of a corrupt Supreme Court Justice is harmful to our democratic philosophy. He needs to go. Soon!

Our governor, GavinNewsom does this all the time. In fact, he’s visited places while our state was on fire, when we were locked up during Covid. He even took many vacations to states that were on our no visit list, like beautiful Montana. Whats the big deal? Oh! He’s a democrat

I would never believe anything from lying CNN news.

So?

Why is this crook still a judge at SCOTUS

Who hives a shit every politician gets money and trips dont play this game you guys are so full of it

This is unacceptable for a Supreme Court Justice.

I bet he wasn't on Epstein's client list - curious why we haven't seen that yet.

I feel like I knew this before propublica…

So what you rag pile of crap

Now do the $250,000 sweetheart loan a Russian oligarch give to Biden to buy one of his homes. I'll wait.

Your point? You really want to go down this road and also examine the records of Ginsburg and Breyer and Sotomayor and Kagan?

Good lord. 😂

Lmao. Clown news network trying to stay edgy and relevant. Nobody cares what the pedophiles at your station try to propagandize anymore. Your ratings prove that.

😴😴😴😴😴😴😴

CNN doesn’t support Black men that stray off their plantation. They know no bounds

Such hypocrisy! This is an embarrassment to the decorum of the Judiciary and he should be held accountable!! He should immediately step down! What a lack of integrity!!

please correct your report. According to the Propublica report there were many trips over the years. That’s a lot more than “several.”

You racist bigots, how dare you criticize a black man

So what?

... and?

How about Joe Biden’s recent trip to the islands for vacay and staying in a donor’s house?

Bet they didn’t go to Epstein Island.

And Obama’s 30 million donation or Newsom’s wife $100,000 donation from SVB

Guess if he shot up a school full of Christians you’d be advocating for him.

Pssst! Look over there…….

So what?

God y'all pathetic

And when Biden’s family does the exact same thing, nobody bats an eye

They keep trying to remove Justice Thomas because he decides based on Constitutional law, and they're against that.

Seriously? You are making this argument? Let’s see the list again of who stayed on Epsteins island. Many of they are Dems.

Didn't Biden spend the holidays at some Democratic mega donors island retreat?

Biden keeps Epstein supply chain open with illegal immigrant children. Where the hell are 85,000 kids

Yep. Glad he gets away on vacation. The corruption in the swamp is so widespread who cares. Everyday occurrence. Happy for him.

You know your President is a pedo and his son is a crackhead whoremonger, right?

This is unacceptable. Supreme Court justices need to be held to a higher standard when it comes to real and perceived impropriety. Their decisions effect generations to follow. So disappointing.

No shit. We already know they're dirty af. And nothing ever gets done. So at this point who cares

That's why judges are selected not elected

So this is the lefts next political target! These people must be stopped before it’s to late.

Yawn

He's a MAGA Justice and needs to step down from the sacred and hallowed chamber.😏😏😏

Nice try Communist News Network. Gunning for a strong black man for having diverse thoughts. CNN hates diversity and apparently black men 🤨

So what?

Whataboutism at CNN is ruing a good story….

And?

RBG did the exact same thing

Biden showers with his own daughter!

😂😂😂😂😂

This is racist! CNN is trying to destroy a successful black man! Shame on you CNN!

If your going to do one you need to check everyone in government. All of their pocketbooks are well lined.

Has CNN reported on the Biden crime family, or is it just reporting on non-crimes of a SCOTUS member?

Abuse of employment position, if true. You’d think his salary would be more than reasonable to cover vaca’s

stefnight This is corruption at the highest level. THOMAS MUST RESIGN !

Now do free trips to Epstein Island by US politicians.

And never disclosed the trips they took for decades.

I'd say that's better than. CLINTON going to Epstein Island. CNN you're a joke.

CNN should be sued...again.

Conflict of interest and bribery. Prosecute him.

Cuz I'm proud to be an American where the wealthy can be free

“bombshell!” Hahaha! How pathetic.

That reminds me, how’s Hunter Biden been doing lately?

How are your ratings doing? Propaganda news station.

Is that against the law to have conservative friends ?

is trying to destroy a lot of black men this week. First Don Lemon and now Clarance Thomas. 🤔

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now do all the dems that do the same

Ethics & Supreme Court Judges don't belong in the same sentence, not to mention them being Republicans. Shit like this didn't just start now, social media exposes a lot of their dirty secrets, that have been kept for decades.

Obama in trouble

We have a senile, influence-peddling foreign agent mouldering in the Oval Office, and you clowns continue to pursue the high-tech lynching of Justice Thomas.

And Who cares.

GOPSeditiousTraitors

Compromised from day one!

Well at least Justice Clarence Thomas knows what a woman is 😂 !!!

He needs to go. He won’t, but he should.

Nothing will happen. Because a) the rules about this have been lazy at best and b) Thomas and his supporters have zero integrity when it comes to such matters. Maybe its time we stop arguing about abortion and get our so called democracy in order first.

And the democrats don't? Give me a break....

Time for Justice Thomas to retire as his impartiality as a judge is now highly questionable.

Is there more to the story?

And Democrats don't engage in the same corrupt behavior. Give me a break

So what. Lol it is not illegal or against rules.

He gotta go

But yet these FAKE NEWS outlets don't say anything about Hunter Biden's selling his dad's influence and name sake to China and Ukraine to make the Biden crime family rich.

Oh so basically doing what everyone in the Democratic Party does.

Glad his spouse wasn’t using insider information to sell stocks! You got me Collusion Nonsense Network? Where ya’ll on investigative reporting? When you gonna start acting like a news organization and not a sock puppet? Embarrassing.

Look at what the Bidens, Clinton's and Pelosi family have done. BIASED ASS CLOWNS

Now do Democrat politicians and judges.

Justice Thomas should not be on the Supreme Court.

Do you have a valid source for this?

Whose homes has Biden been staying in with his entire family?

Hunter is innocent

So? As long as he recuses himself in any case associated with this donor, it is perfectly legal.

Just stop it.

At least he hasn’t gone to Epstein‘s island? CNN, will not stop their propaganda!! Lol

Hmmn 👀

Point

Bidens have received billions from China. Top that one.

Are not Justice Clarence Thomas and his wife entitled to a private life?

ImpeachThomas

They all do, is not a dem nor rep exclusively

This…is CNN.Typical 1 sided different than would think someone at CNN could look into the ties with Hunter, The Big Guy, and their crooked millions from countries like China and Ukraine. But they won’t.

Thank goodness for the rigorous ethical review program in the judiciary sarcasm emoji

So?!

Corrupt and criminal. Impeach his ass.

Oh no!!

who cares! the politicians on the left do this all the time. they’ve been doing it. leave thomas alone

THIS is exactly why CNN's rating are so low! They call this a bombshell? LOL

And also his personal friend. So I guess Republicans can't have friends anymore.

Speculation is fun. You have to PROVE that this influenced any of his decisions. However, knowing the left, that hate poc that’s don’t fall in line, so they’ll attack him.

LOL. Propaganda by CNN( communist news network)

who cares

Whole country corrupt

What, you can't have rich friends? Clinton went to epstein island he is expected to go dutch on his plane trip? How does that works.

One more from trash MSM.

Communist News Network 🦇💩🤪🤡🌏‼️

Targeting the only black judge that doesn’t agree with you. Imagine being like you’re Black and stood at a Hilton must mean you’re being paid off. Sounds a bit racist.

It’s a lie !!!

CNN hates Black people who do not bend the knee to the DNC

So what?

Now do the same about far left activist judges in supreme court

'SEVERAL?!' He took luxury vacations for 20 years from that right wing extremist He took luxury vacations for 20 years from that right wing extremist! PLEASE get the facts straight.

Hunter Biden took air force 2 to China to pick up money for his dad. So this is moot.

Pales in comparison to the Biden clan

Put everyone's corruption out to criticize. I bet even the great CNN has some Skeletors in the closet.

People like this get free expensive stuff, and I can't pay for my groceries?- - What is wrong with that picture?- - -I used to work for DOE and we were never allowed to accept anything, why can this guy get anything free?- - -I am appalled!

So much for SCOTUS being an ideologically-balanced, apolitical entity.

It’s pathetic to see the media I used to think was legitimate but now clearly see is the propaganda machine for the party I used to think were the good guys try to take down people they view as getting in their way. Constant attempting political takedowns.

And Biden took money from CHINA!!

Race bait with hate.

Seems like CNN has lost its way more times than Biden on the way back from the toilet at night 😂

ProPublica isn’t a credible source.

Stalker much CNN?

When is the Pelosi Insider trading bombshell report dropping

BIDEN stays at the wealth estates and mansions of democrat Mega-donors every holiday. Isn't Biden the President of the people? Get a serious grip.

It’s really hard for me to believe that one of the greatest legal minds in the history of the world would do something illegal like that. This is got to be bullshit.

Oh no the Judge took a break - Did he stay at any Chinese or Ukraine sponsored trips ?

If the Justice was a liberal, democrats would scream it's a lynching!

Let's look at all politicians first.

And Pelosi is rich and the Obamas are billionaires. Don’t get me started on Bernie.

Racist

SCOTUS Justices aren’t allowed to have wealthy friends?

You mean like every single member of Congress does?

Audit everyone and charge everyone who violated the law. But let’s be honest democrats are no different.

Traitor to the country. Lock him up

Nobody cares.

harrisonjaime All the Republicans in Washington are taking money from corporations. I believe some of them, like Tucker Carlson, are taking money from Putin (after being carefully laundered, of course).

What about when Liberals stayed at the Lolita express island for vacation? CNN silent…

And we’re leftist justices NEVER leave the court and vacation?!? Vacation at places where they know the owners No never huh?

“Bombshell”

New York University paid for Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg to travel to Florence, Italy. Nobody cared…

Why aren't you talking about China n Joe's family payoffs..not a word from fake news

All of the justices get treated like this by various people/groups. Thomas has just been the Democrat/Media's target since the Dobbs decision.

StoryOfHanumanJi हनुमान जी ने अपनी पूजा करने के लिए कभी नहीं कहा। वो तो खुद एक भक्त थे। पूर्ण परमात्मा कबीर साहिब जी की पूजा से ही मोक्ष संभव है।

Will he resign

This comes with the territory

Imagine the reaction from the right if it came out Soros was doing this for a democrat judge

CNN targeting a black man for vacationing. CNN racist

weird. i'm sure his is an isolated incident.

One of the mottos was to “drain the swamp” yes?

👀🧐👀🧐👀

I'm afraid nothing will come of this report. The way the system is set up, there's zero accountability in SCOTUS.

Not surprised.

Greasy…..real greasy.

Impeach.
