No, one member of Congress is not his boss and does not have the power alone to control his salary.

Yes, the gifts have been listed previously in this thread and can also be found with a Google search if you wish. 

You didn’t care when Sotomayor, Breyer and Ginsburg accepted lavish gifts why is that?

There’s no evidence that Thomas ruled on cases due to taking gifts from those involved. Just like Biden according to you.  

He didn't recuse himself with a case before him that involved a contributor that treated him to a luxury vacation (and he should have as per legal experts on judicial ethics).

Maybe because they haven't accepted any gifts from those who have an interest in a case before the court that it will rule on (unlike Thomas).

Point to me the last time you "asked" a sitting Democrat justice to step down anywhere for perceived improprieties.

F##k, we have literal evidence against Joe Biden and you sit there with your d#ck in your ass making excuses.  GTFO you POS.

According to the rules of judicial ethics, he should have. All judges except those on SCOTUS are held to that standard.

When was the last time a liberal SCOTUS justice was accused of ruling on a case that would suggest perceived improprieties?

lol, what a fockin d0uche.
 

Waaaahthey’re pointing out that I’m bought and that my wife was involved in trying to overthrow the government!! How mean!

 

Justice Clarence Thomas denounced on Friday “the nastiness and the lies” that have shadowed him in recent years as public scrutiny has mounted over his wife’s efforts to subvert the 2020 election and luxury gifts he has accepted from billionaire friends.

It amounted to some of the most extensive public remarks he has made since revelations that he failed to disclose years of lavish trips from wealthy conservatives, like the Texas real estate magnate Harlan Crow, including on private jets and a superyacht.

“My wife and I, the last two or three years, just the nastiness and the lies,” said Justice Thomas, who did not specify what he was referring to in addressing a full ballroom of lawyers and judges gathered for a judicial conference in Alabama. “There’s certainly been a lot of negativity in our lives, my wife and I, over the last few years, but we choose not to focus on it.”

The justice faced calls for recusal after text messages and emails showed that his wife, Virginia Thomas, known as Ginni, sought to overturn the election, appealing to administration officials and lawmakers. Justice Thomas has continued to participate in a number of cases related to the 2020 election, including three about Jan. 6 on the docket this term.

Yeah Clarence Thomas took $4 million in bribes

But don’t let Justice Beer slide under the radar

We still don’t know who paid Kavanaugh’s $92,000 country club fee

& $200,000 credit card debt

& $1,200,000 mortgage

The American people deserve to know who owns this Supreme Court

[Mike Honcho 5,281]

The amount of gifts he has taken is almost as much as his total pay(cued up). It's very reasonable to ask who he thinks his bosses are, the people or his benefactors.
 

 

[IGotWorms 4,058]

Impeach these crooks already

 

 

Justice Clarence Thomas acknowledged on Friday additional luxury travel he had accepted from a conservative billionaire, amending a previous financial disclosure to reflect trips he had taken to an Indonesian island and a secretive all-male club in the Northern California redwoods.

The trips, taken in 2019, were earlier revealed by ProPublica, but it is the first time that Justice Thomas has included them on his financial disclosures.

Other Supreme Court justices chronicled their gifts, travel and money earned from books and teaching. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson reported receiving four concert tickets valued at about $3,700 from Beyoncé and $10,000 of artwork for her chambers from the Alabama artist and musician Lonnie Holley.

The financial disclosures, released yearly, are one of the few public records available about the justices’ lives, providing select details of their activities outside the court. A steady drumbeat of revelations about ties between some of the justices and wealthy donors has only intensified interest in the reports, particularly after disclosures that Justice Thomas had accepted luxury travel and gifts from billionaire friends over decades.

Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. was granted an extension this year, said the Administrative Office of the U.S. Courts, which offers support for the federal judiciary and handles the financial records. That is in keeping with his typical practice. According to Fix the Court, an advocacy group critical of the court’s lack of transparency, for more than a decade he has delayed filing his disclosure.

Last year, both Justice Thomas and Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. requested and received extensions on filing their disclosure forms. Neither cited a reason in asking for a delay.

When his form was released to the public, Justice Thomas included an unusual addendum, a statement defending his acceptance of gifts from Harlan Crow, a real estate magnate in Texas and a donor to conservative causes. He had “inadvertently omitted” information on earlier forms, the statement said, which also sought to justify his decision to fly on private jets. He stated that he had been advised to avoid commercial travel after the leak of the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.

I don't know why Thomas continues to work. If I were him, I'd totally retire and just hang out with my rich friends. I"m sure they are all so close they will continue to shower him with gifts and trips, even if he wasn't a justice.
