A report from The New York Times details yet another luxury obtained by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas using funds from a wealthy associate. In this instance, it’s been revealed that he purchased a Prevost Marathon RV in 1999, using $267,230 received from Anthony Welters, a former executive at UnitedHealthCare who worked alongside Thomas in the Reagan administration, per the outlet. In a statement on the matter, Welters said that the funds were considered a loan and that it has since been “satisfied,” avoiding the phrasing “paid off,” which means it could have been a gift that would have then needed to be disclosed
It doesn’t really matter. Thomas is easily bought off and that’s the problem.
Yeah I don’t think anyone was upset because they thought it was only Republicans bribing people. A bribe from a Democrat(ic/lobbyist/whatever) is the problem. Taking the money and not saying anything about it is the problem to me. His co-worker coming out and saying “yeah congress doesn’t have any authority over us” last week is a problem to me. All these ruling-class college frat chums paying each other off and fucking everyone else in the process, is a problem to me.
And this is the difference between us and the Maga cult
