Clarence Thomas' Disclosure Controversy Raises Questions About Judicial Conduct.
TL;DR Summary
Justice Clarence Thomas will begin to disclose the value of free trips he accepts from Harlan Crow, a wealthy Texas real estate developer and prominent Republican donor. Thomas and his wife have enjoyed several lavish and undisclosed trips paid for by Crow, including a 2019 visit to Indonesia that would have cost the couple $500,000. Thomas' acceptance of such gifts and failure to disclose them has cast renewed scrutiny on whether judges, particularly on the Supreme Court, should face tougher regulations.
