In a statement, Crow said that
while Thomas accepted his generosity
over the years, he never asked for it.
The hospitality we have extended to the Thomas’s over the years is no different from the hospitality we have extended to our many other dear friends, Harlan Crow, Dallas businessman and GOP donor, via statement.
Justice Thomas and Ginni never asked for any of this hospitality, Harlan Crow, Dallas businessman and GOP donor, via statement.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez took to Twitter to call for the impeachment of Thomas.
This is beyond party
or partisanship. This degree
of corruption is shocking -
almost cartoonish. Thomas
must be impeached, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, via Twitter.
Barring some dramatic change,
this is what the Roberts court
will be known for: rank corruption, erosion of democracy, and the
stripping of human rights, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, via Twitter.
Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse also chimed in.
This cries out for the kind of independent investigation that the Supreme Court — and only the Supreme Court, across the entire government— refuses to perform, Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, via Twitter
