    It just keeps getting better and better............not that this proves he is guilty, but these "instances", just keep showing what a POS this dude is....these folks had business before the court and there sending Venmo payments to CT.............not the smartest thing to do for a Justice, but I am sure he sees nothing wrong with this at all...........maybe this is why CT needs more time to turn his financial disclosures

    These are the 7 lawyers who apparently sent Venmo payments for ‘CT Christmas Party’ to a Clarence Thomas aide

    Learning new ways to b corrupt.

    Sending out his lackeys to collect funds via venmo for his personal "Christmas party".

    Fk conservative Supreme Court justices. They don't have the balls to police their own. The other three liberal can't do sht in a court packed with conservative justices.

    The turtle appears to suggests supreme court justices like thomas on the take is perfectly normal, or... he accuses "liberal" members of the court, with no evidence...

    This is the same man who made up a fake story of his own sister being a welfare queen to project the white supremacist stereotype of black women.

    The pure essence of an Uncle Tom.

    Drip - drip - drip:



    During his three decades on the Supreme Court, Clarence Thomas has enjoyed steady access to a lifestyle most Americans can only imagine. A cadre of industry titans and ultrawealthy executives have treated him to far-flung vacations aboard their yachts, ushered him into the premium suites at sporting events and sent their private jets to fetch him — including, on more than one occasion, an entire 737. It’s a stream of luxury that is both more extensive and from a wider circle than has been previously understood.​

    Like clockwork, Thomas’ leisure activities have been underwritten by benefactors who share the ideology that drives his jurisprudence. Their gifts include:


    At least 38 destination vacations, including a previously unreported voyage on a yacht around the Bahamas; 26 private jet flights, plus an additional eight by helicopter; a dozen VIP passes to professional and college sporting events, typically perched in the skybox; two stays at luxury resorts in Florida and Jamaica; and one standing invitation to an uber-exclusive golf club overlooking the Atlantic coast.

    This accounting of Thomas’ travel, revealed for the first time here from an array of previously unavailable information, is the fullest to date of the generosity that has regularly afforded Thomas a lifestyle far beyond what his income could provide. And it is almost certainly an undercount.​


    "The 737 was going that way anyway." - Alito in the WSJ tomorrow

    Are there any billionaires left who have not given Clarence Thomas undisclosed bribes - gifts - "hospitality" - that might be easier than all of the reporting all of the free sh-t that Justice "Wal-Mart Parking Lot" has gotten.

    Why didn't he go vacation at Walmart parking lots? He said he enjoyed Walmart parking lots more than exotic vacation destinations. Weird....


    Also it shows how out of touch with reality he is. Like no one wants to be at a Walmart parking lot for recreational time. No one. The people at Walmart parking lots don't think of it as leisure time. Clarence doesn't even know how to fake being "man of the people".

    What’s the legal penalty for breaking your USSCJ oath?

    Nothing. The only thing you can hope for is impeachment.

    The Supreme Court is more of a dictatorial tribunal due to its lack of checks on that branch. It has the least effect amount of ways to check the branch from the other two branches.

    I'd pay good money to see that in all honesty.
