Report: Clarence Thomas sold real estate to conservative mega-donor, didn’t report deal

The 2014 real estate deal shines a new light on Thomas’s decades-old relationship with Crow, a real estate magnate and longtime financier for conservative causes. That relationship and the material benefits received by Thomas have fueled calls for an official ethics investigation.

Citing state tax documents and property deeds, ProPublica reported that one of Crow’s companies paid $133,363 for the home in Savannah, Georgia where Thomas’ mother was living, along with two nearby vacant lots that belonged to Thomas’ family members. Thomas mother remained living in the home, which soon underwent tens of thousands of dollars in renovations.

Who cares? Judges aren’t high priests sworn to vows of poverty and chastity. Their opinions speak for themselves and stand and fall on their own merits.

Drive by hit piece Don't be trash

As the Justice has said, the requirements to report those kinds of things have not always been in place at SCOTUS. This kind of treatment of this man is reprehensible. They don’t pretend he has decided cases for Mr Crow or been impacted in his work, just that he’s corrupt. UNTRUE

🙄 Now do Biden.

Yawn.
