Report Reveals Justice Clarence Thomas Received Even More Gifts from Right-Wing Billionaires

HeadlineAug 10, 2023

ProPublica has revealed new details about how conservative billionaires have showered Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas with free trips and gifts for decades. ProPublica’s new report documents 38 destination vacations, 26 private jet flights, 12 VIP passes to sporting events and eight helicopter flights, all paid for by wealthy patrons. Thomas has been under increasing scrutiny since April, when ProPublica revealed he had failed to report frequent luxury trips paid for by the Republican billionaire Harlan Crow.
