Clarence Thomas accepts millions of dollars in gifts from Republican donor

[Sportello]

No, alleged tax payments not being made.

My apologies. I was not aware that Justice Thomas paid taxes on the gifts he received.

Almost as shady as using a different screen name…….

Yes. odd, isn't it? It's also strange that Thomas didn't seem to have a clue he was this rich billionaire's lackey, a Black man doing the bidding of his White "master". Today, it came out that the benefactor has tons of Nazi memorabilia, including an autographed copy of Mein Kampf. I wouldn't want it if it were free, but that's not all. He also has a large collection of Antebellum Era from the old South.

Clarence Thomas has always been a useful tool of the Far Right, and probably the biggest Uncle Tom in history.

He nothing but a house _ _ _ _ _

Make all the justices pay taxes on the gifts they've received. Make disclosure of gifts required. Tighten up the rules. But for now don't point out what Thomas has received without pointing out what they've all received.

Christ, it's something new like every 12 hours now.

There has been no law broken.

because they are all above the law

The tax laws are pretty specific. I cannot gift my children more than the IRS maximum.

And again, hold all of them accountable for violating the law.

 

[MrFedEx]

the court system is terribly corrupt and the judges are awful

"money is speech" LOL

the judges are picked by corrupt presidents for god sakes. what do you expect!!!

3 of them were. All lied at their confirmation hearings on Roe. Alito wasn’t Trump appointed. The Pope selected him.

Harlan Crowe is not a family member of Clarence Thomas' grand nephew. The boy is not the only student Crowe has sponsored at the private school, which is his Alma Mater

Democrats are upset a young black kid from a broken family got a scholarship to a good school.

These people are so desperate lol.

No money went to Thomas. It went directly to the school.

Can you name the other students Mr Crow paid for?

What about the home that Justice Thomas' mother still lives in? What about payments to Ginni Thomas by Leonard Leo? What about tuition at Randolph-Macon Academy that Mr. Crow paid for? Was that also his alma mater? Let's not forget the luxury vacations.

When did Harlan Crow become "dearest friends" with Clarence Thomas?

Lots of questions and no honest answers.

 

[Gotta Go]

He just got his "Reparations" before everybody else.

Using the "separation of powers" excuse is not a "get out of jail free" card allowing SCOTUS judges to do whatever they want including being on the take for whatever economic gains they can lay claim to .
The question is: How does the Clarence Thomas matter differ from that of Abe Fortas?

The question is, what is the name of the case that you people are alleging Clarence Thomas ruled differently on because of his friendship with Harlan Crowe?

I keep asking but you people can't come up with anything.

What do you know about Penguin Publishing?
What does Sotomayor know about them?

Thomas and Roberts make the rest of them pale in comparison. Plus, we don't know the full extent of the corruption. Thomas needs to go. Hey, Biden can appoint Obama to the SCOTUS. Watch Conservative heads explode.

Irrelevant, because it's still a gift. To Thomas, because he was supporting the nephew.

It doesn't, except that Thomas is a rubber stamp conservative judge.

Racist Democrats at it again.
Same as it ever was.
