The report delves into multiple instances over the years where the conservative justice and his wife, Ginni, were treated to lavish vacations, yacht cruises, and flights on a private jet, all on the dime of billionaire real estate developer [and Republican megadonor] Harlan Crow.

The “By Any Means Necessary” Party NEVER quits.

This isn’t against the law.

Good for Clarence

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Only Democrats are allowed to do that!

... and Ginni.

Even if conservatives live as monks and hermits, they will still attack you.

Meanwhile: The report delves into multiple instances over the years where Hunter Biden was treated to lavish vacations, yacht cruises, and flights on a private jet, and also signed deals which paid him in millions by the Russians, Chicoms and Ukranians, all to gain influence over his father, then VP.

Just attempt # 2118 to destroy a pro-life soul.

Thank God this BS is about Clarence Thomas he is the ONLY ONE there that has the balls to give them the middle finger!!

“Even if conservatives live as monks and hermits, they will still attack you.”

Because you’d be living as a hermit or monk!

The original report is behind a pay wall at ProPublica.com.

Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire

"Island-hopping on a super yacht. Private jet rides around the world. The undisclosed gifts to Thomas have no known precedent in the modern history of the Supreme Court. "It's incomprehensible to me that someone would do this," says one former judge."

[Aevery_Freeman]

The name Jeffery Epstein comes to mind.

"Luxury" vacations?

[jpp113]

There’s no beef here if the Rich Dude did/does not have a case in front of the USSC for which Thomas did not recuse himself. This is all WHINY demonrat babies crying. “Thomas’ opinions and words work violence on us!!” LOL, GFY crybaby snowflakes.

Remember when Pence said that he never allowed himself to be alone with a woman other than his wife? He was accused of discriminating against women and depriving them of opportunity.

[ActresponsiblyinVA]

Can’t have rich friends?

[No name given]

Just ask the Clinton crime family.

Dems think they finally have DJT on the ropes. If they take back the HoR and hold the White House in ‘24, you can bet their next coup will be an attempt to impeach Thomas.

It’s only happened twice in U.S. history, Samuel Chase (the guy on the defunct $10,000 bill) in 1804 and Abe Fortas in 1969. Chase was impeached in the House and acquitted in the Senate. Fortas resigned to avoid the impeachment.

So if the Democrats take control, Justice Thomas may very well become a target . . .

[Reno89519]

I know this is a political hot potato as they try to get Justice Thomas but the bigger picture is troubling. I don’t care who the person is, party, position, etc., but why can’t they pay for their own vacations, gifts, etc.? I doubt he’s poor, he has a good income, and should live within his means just like most of the rest of us. And that is not a criticism of Justice Thomas, but one against all judges and politicians.

If any cases involving Harlan Crow come before the court, he should recuse himself. Otherwise, pound sand.
