New ethics inquiry details more trips by Clarence Thomas paid for by wealthy benefactors
Investigation by Senate Democrats found that Thomas accepted gifts and travel worth more than $4.75m since 1991
Summary
A Senate report revealed that Justice Clarence Thomas accepted over $4.75 million in luxury travel and gifts from wealthy benefactors, including unreported trips in 2021.

Republicans dismissed the investigation as partisan, while Democrats demand stricter oversight.
