Clarence Thomas admits billionaire paid for private club membership and luxury Bali trips
Raw StoryA Texas billionaire, known to have cozy relationships with high-profile conservatives, footed the bill for two 2019 trips to Bali and membership to a private California club for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, according to a report published Friday. Billionaire conservative Harlan Crow — a prominent American businessman and real estate developer, who serves as the chairman and former CEO of Crow Holdings — paid for Thomas's trips, the Post reported. The report Friday comes after a separate report this week found Supreme Court Justices have received about $4.7 million in gifts over the past two decades — more than $4 million of which was pocketed by Thomas alone, newly revealed data showed. “The ethics crisis at the Court won’t begin to abate until justices adopt stricter gift acceptance rules.” The latest financial disclosures also showed justices Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch and Ketanji Brown Jackson all received book payments of more than $100,000, the Post reported.
