Calls for Investigation into Clarence Thomas' Real Estate Deals with GOP Donor and Travel Expenses

Democratic lawmakers are calling for an investigation into Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas after ProPublica revealed that he had failed to report real estate deals made with Harlan Crow, a Dallas business executive and influential Republican donor to causes related to the law and judiciary. The report came on the heels of another ProPublica investigation that revealed that Thomas had accepted trips around the globe from Crow for more than two decades, including travel on a superyacht and private jet, without disclosing them. The revelation of Thomas’s additional, unreported real estate deals with Crow further outraged Democrats and led to new calls for Thomas to step down.
