In addition to providing lavish vacations and luxury rides aboard superyachts and private jets, billionaire Republican megadonor Harlan Crow also bought property from Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. It's the house where his mother lived in Georgia. Thomas never reported it. Ethics experts say selling property and failing to disclose it is a clear violation of the law.
Here & Now's Scott Tong talks with Jane Mayer, chief Washington correspondent for the New Yorker and author of “Dark Money: The Hidden History of the Billionaires Behind the Rise of the Radical Right.” She also outlines Thomas' long history of failing to disclose required information and the appearance of conflicts of interest involving his wife, Ginni Thomas.

You dig deep enough you can find this type of stuff on any one on of them...I don't believe in coincidences so the "timing" of this as races heat up is not a coincidence...political witch hunt.

LTC Kevin B. - When did he sell this property? Not yesterday. When did he take these trips et al? Not last month. People in Washington do the Potomac two step and hold info until they really ned it. In this case I don't think it was held too long but some snoopy watchdog found it and now they are digging. BUT how did the snoopy watchdog get the tip to start looking anyway? HHHMMMM.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth You have lots of unanswered questions there. Questions aren’t evidence though.

LTC Kevin B. - Never said they were...my speculation...Am I right, I don't know but I do know that when something happens it needs to be handled then not later. That is fact from my previous Commands.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth - I don't debate that point about jumping on things quickly. However, that may actually be the case here. Facts came to light, and as soon as they did, people are trying to take action. It may just be that simple. Plus, the elections are still a way off, so the timing doesn't seem to be overly political. It may be that there's a rush to do something now, so that if he steps down or is forced out, Biden could nominate a replacement when he still has a Democratic Senate.
