Justice Clarence Thomas has come under scrutiny for allegedly flouting ethics rules and failing to clarify whether he repaid the principal on a $260,000 luxury RV loan from a wealthy friend used to buy his RV. Senators Ron Wyden and Sheldon Whitehouse are demanding details on the forgiven loan and potential violations of tax laws. Media reports have focused on Thomas and his wife over the past year, raising questions about his financial affairs. Critics argue that his evasive responses and declarations of outrage suggest he believes he is above the law.
