Justice Clarence Thomas Acknowledges Three Undisclosed Private Jet Trips and Gifts from GOP Megadonor
Jun 13, 2024, 08:06 PM
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has acknowledged receiving luxury trips and gifts worth over $4 million from Republican megadonor Harlan Crow over the past 20 years. Recent disclosures reveal that Thomas took at least three additional undisclosed trips on Crow's private jet. These revelations have sparked calls for an enforceable code of conduct for Supreme Court justices. Justice Thomas' colleagues, including Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, have also reported significant financial benefits, such as six-figure payments from book deals and Beyonce tickets. The Senate Judiciary Committee, led by Democratic Senator Dick Durbin, is investigating these ethical concerns, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability within the Supreme Court. Chief Justice Roberts has been urged to implement an enforceable code of conduct.
