Wouldn't find it surprising. Clarence Thomas has always transfered his large sense of grievance into a larger dose of entitlement.

mtutiger Posted April 6, 2023 Share Posted April 6, 2023 Any time I see this thread become active again, my reaction is generally "oh no, what did they F up this time?" Sounds pretty swampy from Clarence Thomas.... shocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CMRivdogs Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 The whole Thomas rebuttal is pure BS. Anyone with a grain of propriety would instinctively know that accepting free plane trips or vacations, even from a longtime "friend" should set off warning bells and whistles. Not to mention underwriting Thomas wife's Political Action Committee. I've known smaller market reporters who have turned down the "Goodie" packages from PGA and LPGA tournament sponsors so not to be accused of favoritism. He's a member of the country's highest court, and he doesn't understand that your "friend" offers you a gift, that it may not be technically wrong but perception matters just as much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's about as obvious as you can get at putting the lie to his current excuse. Pitiful excuse for a man. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RatkoVarda Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 same guy donated half million to Ginni Thomas's consulting group, which was funneled to Ginni Thomas in form of "salary" and he also is one of the major funders of the GOP PAC "No Labels Party" which is masquerading as a 3rd party choice for president in order to get Trump back into White House.
