DEVELOPING: A new report that Clarence Thomas accepted donations from a billionaire GOP donor was met with both renewed criticism of how the justices self-police and renewed calls for oversight and the impeachment of the embattled conservative.

A Thursday report that U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas accepted luxury travel and hospitality perks from a billionaire Republican donor was met with both renewed criticism of how the justices self-police and renewed calls for oversight and the impeachment of the embattled conservative.

Crow is not said to have any direct connection to business before the court and no apparent alleged conflict of interest on that level, but he is deeply connected to GOP politics and, according to ProPublica's reporting, regularly includes conservative power players in gatherings with Thomas. Some progressive lawmakers have joined in pushing for Thomas' removal. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., wrote on Twitter that"this degree of corruption is shocking - almost cartoonish. Thomas must be impeached."

Crow, a prolific Republican donor who amassed a fortune in real estate, has given tens of millions of dollars to various Republican candidates and political groups at the federal level, according to public campaign finance databases. He has been a particularly generous donor to super PACs linked to Republican leadership in Congress, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars on those groups almost every election cycle.

As corrupt as they come

Now run a story on Soros and all the politicians he has bought.

Attacking a black supreme court justice with a corrupt bias source. Way to go ABC15, your racism is showing.

There is no legal requirement for him to disclose anything so...? Moving on...

Isn't it funny how the Legislative branch of government does not have to disclose their insider trading deals while they impose rules on the other branches? Instead of working for the people, they spend most of their time ripping each other apart.

Impeach!!!

Yea, yea. Yet another democrat ploy to smear a patriot to open up a seat on the SC. We see through you demons now. You are no threat to us any longer.

ABC engages in election interference

I’m sure absolutely nothing will happen. I’m positive 🤷

ABC - did you notice the Biden family just sold more finger painting for gigantic sums of money - I’m sure you are on it!

This guy has been embarrassment from the get go.

Now do all politicians + their insider trades. The hypocrisy 🤦🏻‍♂️

Impeach that clown, and indict his wife.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Term limits for Scotus.

Racist DNC targeting black man

Oversight would be a god thing

Why am I not shocked about this? I bet the other Justices do this too, that is why they don't want any new rules, or over site. The fox is watching the hen house at the Supreme Court and American Citizens again pay the price with bought and paid for rulings.

Justice ROBERTS also visited Epstein Island! And! Scallia was murdered on a hunting trip... Look it up!

Lol now libs scream outrage after George Soros ? I say to all outraged democrats, do something

Bought and paid for

Allow me to simplify this. Joe Biden is still after Clarence Thomas. FJB

Resign now

Thomas done absolutely nothing wrong this is just another witch hunt that'll amount to nothing...

This unqualified grifter on that kangaroo court shows, it’s there for rich people and no one else, he should be jailed.

It was all for Ginni. Before you consider the gifts excessive, let's account for her size. I'm not attempting to Fat shame anyone. I'm just suggesting that you reconsider the value of the gifts given her BMI.

Unelected, no oversight, and a lifetime appointment. What could go wrong?

He should have never become a SC justice. His wife should be investigated too.

That’s odd

Not surprised by GOP at this point
