Report Reveals Justice Clarence Thomas Received Even More Gifts from Right-Wing Billionaires
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Pro Publica has revealed new details about how conservative billionaires
have showered Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas with free trips and
gifts for decades. Pro Publica's new report documents 38 destination
vacations, 26 private jet flights, 12 VIP passes to sporting events and
eight helicopter flights, all paid for by wealthy patrons. Thomas has
been under increasing scrutiny since April, when Pro Publica revealed he
had failed to report frequent luxury trips paid for by the Republican
billionaire Harlan Crow.
