For the people who don’t have time to pore over the chart in that link…

Thomas has been on the court longer than any of the other justices, but these numbers are still simply staggering if correct.

Total gifts disclosed by all SC justices: $2,993,036
Total gifts disclosed just by Justice Thomas: $2,402,310


Out of all the gifts disclosed by all the Supreme Court justices in the last 20 years, Thomas alone received 80% of them.

If Thomas’s $2.4 million seems high, it’s because the second highest gift total disclosed by a justice in the last 20 years was Scalia’s $175,861; the 3rd highest was Alito’s $170,095; and the 4th highest was Stevens’s $79,059.

This group identified another $1.8 million in “likely,” undisclosed gifts to Thomas, based on investigative journalism.

It’s been 140 years since slavery ended, and we still have owned black men doing the massa’s bidding.

Same slavery, different plantation.

And he just belatedly reported two more vacations paid for by Harlan Crowe in 2019 that he "forgot" about when he made his 2019 disclosure. But remember folks, lying on federal forms is a serious crime. If you are Hunter Biden. If you are Clarence Thomas, then no biggie.

Yup. Apparently he takes luxury vacations to the opposite side of the globe so often that he forgets about them.

So according to this tracker, Thomas got $5,879,796 of the total $6,592,657 in gifts given to all SCOTUS justices over the last 20 years. Nearly 90% to him. And he had the gall to accuse his sister of being a welfare queen.

This is so despicable it makes me crazy. He and his brother set a fire in their rental home which got the whole family evicted. Then he and his brother got to live in town with their grandparents and go to good private schools while his sister stayed behind in the country with their mom, and he has the GALL to say that. And do this.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas received millions in gifts over 20 years, group says
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has accepted more than $2 million in gifts over the last 20 years, according to a new analysis, far eclipsing the value of those received by his fellow justices.

A report released Thursday by the advocacy group Fix the Court said the total value of 93 gifts to all of Thomas’ fellow justices between 2004 and 2023 were valued at $248,000, while Thomas alone received 103 gifts worth $2.4 million.

In addition to that haul, Fix the Court flagged another 101 “likely gifts” to Thomas worth nearly $1.8 million stemming from free luxury travel and lodging he received from billionaire Harlan Crow and others.

If those gifts are counted, Thomas’ 20-year bonanza jumps to nearly $4.2 million.

I guess all those moderate democratic senators are block action against Thomas and Alito.

Too bad the Republican have a majority in the Senate and the dems can’t do anything.

Are we sure this guy is competent to interpret the constitution?

And now Kavanaugh debases himself

Hmmm, as an American, I am not down with Godliness and am not down with a member of the Supreme Court trying to impose that on me.

Imagine if there were a Jew or Muslim on the court who tried to impose their "godliness" on the Catholics, Christians and particularly Evangelicals?

What's problematic right now is that the left and these left-wing groups are working really hard to defame the Constitutional Justices on the court while ignoring some of the same behavior from "left leaning" Justices.
The thread above was longer with even more information about how the left is cherry-picking information AND actually publishing totally false information. So, don't believe everything you read.
This is an attempt, no doubt, to encourage the Senate to kill the filibuster and pack the court.
