The fullest accounting yet shows how Thomas has secretly reaped the benefits from a network of wealthy and well-connected patrons that is far more extensive than previously understood.

Do this but for every elected and appointed government official. Strong news reporting needs to point out these blatant interest conflicts about all the scum and people need to clean them out.
Can’t help but feel that all attacks on him are racially motivated. Gives me the ick
because it can't possibly be that this man has received millions of dollars worth of gifts from extremely wealthy individuals who would absolutely have an interest in owning a justice of SCOTUS.
from the article:
Perhaps even more significant, the pattern exposes consistent violations of judicial norms, experts, including seven current and former federal judges appointed by both parties, told ProPublica. “In my career I don’t remember ever seeing this degree of largesse given to anybody,” said Jeremy Fogel, a former federal judge who served for years on the judicial committee that reviews judges’ financial disclosures. “I think it’s unprecedented.”
"Unprecedented" is an understatement. and if you think Clarence Thomas isn't for sale... ask yourself why it is that his "good friends" only came around after Thomas was appointed to SCOTUS?
yeah. Great friends... who want something. And Thomas is willing to sell Americans out to give it to them.
See, even this reply feels like you simply don't like the fact that he is successful. I can't help but feel that you are trying to put him down because of his skin colour. Just gives me the ick, ya know?
