Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire
This thread should be retitled "Clarence Thomas and the BillionaireS" because according to Pro Publica, Thomas has a longer history than previously known, of accepting expensive vacations, private plane trips, sky box seats to sporting events, from billionaires who are seemingly so eager to pay his ways.  He didn't know these men before he became a justice and all of them are very active in conservative and Republican politics.  But no worries, they never discussed court business...of course, they didn't have to discuss specifics of individual cases for Thomas to know which way to vote in order to please his benefactors.

I wonder if he reported these gifts on his taxes?  Because others paying for his luxury vacations every year since he joined the court is certainly supplementing his personal income.  It is getting to the point, that one must wonder if Thomas actually pays for anything with his own money
