"Clarence Thomas Secretly Accepted Luxury Trips From Major GOP Donor" - this is why the system is rigged against us.
"Clarence Thomas Secretly Accepted Luxury Trips From Major GOP Donor" - this is why the system is rigged against us.
Island-hopping on a superyacht. Private jet rides around the world. The undisclosed gifts to Thomas have no known precedent in the modern history of the Supreme Court. “It’s incomprehensible to me that someone would do this,” says one former judge.
This should be a major scandal.
yes it should. but the rules for the aristocracy are different.
Spot on. The "elites" and their puppets will not face consequences because they designed the system to benefit themselves. He will continue to be a corrupt parasite and make rulings that will take rights away from people not of the moneyed class.
this is seriously insane. anyone who works at a corporate job knows you gotta report any gift worth ~$50 or more. literally "rules for you but not for me".
We live in a plutocracy - the richest people in colonial US were the ones who wrote our governing documents and since then the government has been run by and for the wealthy. Clarence Thomas, although not born of the capitalist class, represents the power wealth wields in our republic. A person who makes rulings on the constitutionality of our laws should be beyond corruption, but here is a lifting of the veil on the reality we must face as citizens - we are almost powerless to stop this. He will not willingly step down, nor will congress obtain the necessary votes to impeach. I believe we will not have real change until the working people unite under a common banner and put a stop to the obvious and massive power imbalances in our republic.
Damn corrupt Republicans!
