"Justice Clarence Thomas Under Fire for Undisclosed Real Estate Deal with GOP Donor"

TL;DR Summary
Justice Clarence Thomas failed to disclose a real estate deal worth over $100,000 with Texas billionaire Harlan Crow in 2014, which appears to be a direct violation of disclosure requirements. This is the first known instance of money going directly from Crow to the justice. Thomas has long raised eyebrows over questions of conflicts of interest, in part because of the political activism of his wife, Virginia Thomas. The revelation has fueled calls for the justices to face tighter ethics constraints.
