Letters to the Editor: Clarence Thomas is a role model for an America where nothing matters (via latimesopinion )
, Harlan Crow, a billionaire Republican donor with no business before the court. He has not reported any of these gifts on his financial disclosure forms, as required by law.
What a hero! Thomas has ignored the rules that constrain lesser judges. He has taken the gifts he wants without any regard for public perception or accountability. He has followed the advice of unnamed colleagues and others who said he didn’t have to disclose anything. Some may say that Thomas is undermining the credibility of the Supreme Court and inviting impeachment. But I say he is a role model. He is showing us how to be free from morality and transparency. He is showing us how to be loyal to our friends and benefactors.Thank you, Justice Thomas, for your service and your example. You are truly an inspiration.
Thomas’ wife worked behind the scenes to overthrow the 2020 election to keep Donald Trump in office, with no consequences.The Supreme Court is hardly unbiased, and Thomas is anything but supreme. Ethics reform in the highest court in the land is long overdue.Maybe while reading about lavish vacations and Thomas’ failure to report his wife’s earnings from 2003 to 2007, folks will recall the Anita Hill allegations and believe her this time around.
