TL;DR Summary

Over 40 watchdog groups have written a letter to Chief Justice John Roberts, urging him to force Supreme Court justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito to recuse themselves from cases involving conflicts of interest with billionaire donors. Recent reports have revealed ties between Thomas and Alito and donors with business before the court, including undisclosed gifts and financial benefits. The watchdog groups argue that these conflicts undermine the court's integrity and call for the justices to recuse themselves to restore public confidence. However, both Thomas and Alito have denied any wrongdoing and rejected calls for recusal.
