Supreme Court Corruption (Formerly Clarence Thomas and the Billionaire) (1 Viewer)

It seems that a billionaire GOP donor has spent a small fortune on vacations for Ginni and Clarence Thomas.

Clarence Thomas Secretly Accepted Luxury Trips From Major GOP Donor

Island-hopping on a superyacht. Private jet rides around the world. The undisclosed gifts to Thomas have no known precedent in the modern history of the Supreme Court. “It’s incomprehensible to me that someone would do this,” says one former judge.

Rules for thee, but not for me.

I hadn’t thought of the fact that it seems like both Thomas and Alito got brand new billionaire “friends” when they were appointed to the SC. Wonder how many other Justices have done this kind of crap?

The seat was empty anyways?!?

That is the most bullshirt excuse ever. And for a SC Justice to act so ignorant of the law is precious. They are acting like Unfozen Caveman Lawyer. “I’m just a caveman. I don’t understand your ways and your machines frighten me. When I am driving my Ferrari I’m like ‘is there a small animal under the hood?’

You’re a SC Justice. Nobody believes you.

In Alito’s world people should just get to sit on commercial airline flights if the seat is not sold.

Concerts and sporting events too I am sure.

Hooked up by the same guy no less.

It has got to be time for a Congressional Investigation by the Judiciary Committee at least right?

I think if we end up with a Republican president and the Repubulican controlled Senate after the election, then both Thomas and Alito will immediately resign and the Senate will shut down any investigations, so it might be a waste of time at this point.

Of course….

Yeah it's kind of funny the people who refuse to believe this is America's second gilded age. It's actually worse then the first one.

I sure hope Alito, Thomas and any others who have disgraced the court get what's coming to them, legally or otherwise .....they are doing their best to destroy our democracy....if someone shot both of them tomorrow I wouldn't shed a tear.....
