"Remember when John Kerry was Swiftboated by Chris LaCivita who is doing it to Tim Walz now? Guess who funded it? Harlan Crow, the billionaire who has been lavishing freebies on Clarence Thomas."

Gift article. [Washington Post]: Sen. Wyden says Thomas took two more undisclosed flights on donor’s jet A letter from Sen. Ron Wyden to Harlan Crow’s lawyer says Justice Clarence Thomas took two flights on Crow’s private jet that have not been previously reported.
As Chris Geidner says, Supreme justice Gorsuch dares to lecture the rest of us on how we deal with ethical issues when it comes out that his colleague Clarence Thomas has taken more expensive trips on Sugar Daddy Harlan Crow's tab, which he never disclosed, though he's required by law to do so.
Some ethics.

Can we just acknowledge now #ClarenceThomas is just #HarlanCrow's personal bought and paid for Supreme Court Justice? I doubt Thomas takes a shit without Crow's say-so.
Time For Them to GO! In letter to attorney representing #ClarenceThomas’ #billionaire benefactor #HarlanCrow, Senate Finance Committee Chair #RonWyden revealed new flights taken by Thomas aboard Crow’s private jet that Thomas has failed to disclose. Letter restated demands for travel, financial records pertaining to Crow’s yacht that would demonstrate whether Crow improperly used personal trips aboard yacht, including those to homes, to avoid or evade taxes. #corruption https://www.finance.senate.gov/chairmans-news/wyden-uncovers-private-jet-travel-still-undisclosed-by-justice-thomas-demands-travel-records-from-thomas-benefactor-harlan-crow
The letter, part of an inquiry that #RonWyden, chair of the #Senate Finance Cmte, has opened into #HarlanCrow & #ClarenceThomas, comes as top #Democrats have urged major changes to #SCOTUS, including an #enforceable code of conduct.
Wyden said the latest revelation only increased his misgivings about the relationship between the justice & Crow. “I am deeply concerned that Mr. Crow may have been showering a public official w/extravagant gifts, then writing off those gifts to lower his tax bill”
Customs & Border Protection records revealed that #ClarenceThomas & his wife, #GinniThomas, took a round trip between Hawaii & New Zealand in Nov 2010 on #HarlanCrow’s private jet. Sen #RonWyden, #Democrat of Oregon, writing to Crow’s lawyer, demanded that he supply more info about the #financial relationship between the 2 men.
