Just saw this on the news-
I can hear the excuses now - “I didn’t know these things needed to be reported. I didn’t know solo flights on private jets, tuition, houses, RVs, low-interest loans and expensive excursions were considered gifts. And I didn’t know going to speak at a conservative political fundraising event put on by well-known political billionaire donors would be political activity”
F**** you Clarence Thomas, a self-righteous man who’s still benefiting from affirmative action it seems, just not the kind he wants to deny to others like him. The same kind he also benefited from earlier.
Now he’s just a rubber stamp for extremists. No wonder he’s usually the loan dissenter.
I’m trying to wrap my mind around why your stereotypical federal and state/local government worker ants who make lower and middle class livings can be terminated, fined or jailed for actions WAY less than this. All over the country in every state and county there are clerks, mayors, representatives, state senators, aldermen, etc who have been sent to jail for way less corruption.
Again, if this is not corruption, what is?
This isn’t your run of the mill politician either, this is a Supreme Court justice - an unelected judge with immense power and no term limits. So if Clarence Thomas defends his behavior, it’s because he stupid or corrupt. And we all know he isn’t stupid.

Thomas has attended at least two Koch donor summits, putting him in the extraordinary position of having helped a political network that has brought multiple cases before the Supreme Court.
