Clarence Thomas's Controversial RV Purchase and its Wealthy Financing
Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas purchased a luxury RV for $267,000 with the help of a loan from Anthony Welters, a former executive at UnitedHealthCare and Democratic donor. Thomas has used the RV to travel around the country, but he never disclosed that it was financed by Welters. This revelation comes after previous reports of Thomas accepting gifts from Republican donor Harlan Crow. The disclosure raises questions about whether the loan should have been disclosed as a gift and adds to the push for new ethics requirements for Supreme Court justices.
