It’s long past time for there to be a comprehensive criminal investigation, and congressional investigation, of Justice Thomas and his finances and his taxes. What he has taken, and what he has failed to disclose, is beyond belief, and has been so for quite some time. www.nytimes.com/2024/06/07/u...
Clarence Thomas, in Financial Disclosure, Acknowledges 2019 Trips Paid by Harlan Crowwww.nytimes.com The justice amended an earlier filing to include vacations to Bali and an exclusive California club paid for by the Texas billionaire Harlan Crow.

To be honest, I think the entire Supreme Court could use a massive overhaul.

Like expanding to 13 -chosen from a pool of candidates chosen from a Bi-Partisan committee and THEN voted on by the American public. Serving a 9 year term

The only thing surprising is that the other Republicans are not benefiting nearly as much, considering greed and bigotry are (and have been) the main principles of the Republican Party.

Oh no,it's not. It just confirmed WHAT WOMEN WERE SAYING ALL ALONG. And he wasn't really hiding. Who is hiding?Roberts& the Senators,who are absolutely not kicking the teeth out of the blatant corruption. Yer all getting balkanized & I am allowed to say it,as a Balkanese. Balkanette.Whatev'

Hello? Dick Durbin? Get off your lazy incumbent ass.

This is the easiest layup and the Democrats still won't do anything about it

Thomas is looking at Barrett and Kavanaugh saying, "Pussies! Step it up, bitches! ".
This is just fcking outrageous. It he and his wife think they deserve million dollar vacations, he should join the private sector and earn it.

If only there were a governing body with the standing and authority to initiate such an investigation. Golly.

Criming is hard work. He can't be expected to declare everything and provide receipts like us little people. Which by the way where I work, if I took a free coffee mug I could be disciplined.

United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas cannot be bought! Long-term rental? Sure. No problem.

Duck Durbin needs to grow a spine and do his damn job.

IMnsHO, whenever some congress critter is dragging his, usually his, feet, the dirtbag is compromised. Dick hocked his dick to someone.

His face needs featured on the pile of corruption he sits upon:

If he's willing to disclose this, he's probably still keeping this big shit to himself.

SCOTUS, The Judiciary, Money has Purchased!

Time to impeach Thomas. And put the other justices on notice…. Today, not tomorrow.

Hey come on man. He's the best justice money can buy. #donthatelegislate

If I received such a gift I’d have to pay taxes. But not judges apparently. Just like Trump using campaign donations to pay his legal fees, it’s money in his pocket but he’ll write it off as an expense!!!!! Corruption is rampant.

In a functioning democracy Thomas would be removed from office.

Okay but about that resignation...

The public has a right to know that although we pay his salary and pension, he answers only to a handful of partisan billionaire benefactors who care not one bit about civil liberties, the Constitution or anything else that doesn't conform to their biases and financial interests. Investigate now.

Not to mention the taxes he should owe on all of these “gifts”
Avatar
There should be but given the political environment....

So how can it happen? I wish the Dems would behave the way the Republicans would behave if Ketanji Brown Jackson did the same. Wait, less. If she did even less.
And Thomas still feels sorry for himself that anyone dares ask a question about his lavish gift taking.
Avatar
The sheer level of obvious corruption and bribery is honestly absurd.
Avatar
Not just Thomas, though. All justices, AND politicians should be subject to the same level of scrutiny. Especially those benefitting from the loophole permitting PAC money to be utilized as a slush fund for election winners.

Laws only apply to the little unimportant people. Them’s the rules eh?

Clarence Thomas is straight up open for business. I'm not even convinced any more that there's any ideological agenda behind it. I think he would flip around and take $2 million from Planned Parenthood if they offered (not that they would).

I'm sure he would say "I was going to vote that way anyway so why not?"

If any of us who held civil service positions accepted even a fraction of what our justices have received, we would have been suspended if not fired outright. They know better, but their absolute power without any ethics rules has corrupted them. thehill.com/regulation/c...
