Report: Thomas sold real estate to donor, didn't report deal

ProPublica previously revealed that Thomas and his wife Ginni were gifted with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of annual vacations and trips by Crow for decades — including international cruises on his mega-yacht, private jet flights and stays at Crow's invitation-only resort in the Adirondacks. But the 2014 real estate deal is the first public evidence of a direct financial transaction between the pair.

Citing state tax documents and property deeds, ProPublica reported that one of Crow's companies paid $133,363 for the home in Savannah, Georgia where Thomas' mother was living, along with two nearby vacant lots that belonged to Thomas' family members. Thomas mother remained living in the home, which soon underwent tens of thousands of dollars in renovations.

Federal officials, including Supreme Court justices, are required to disclose the details of most real estate transactions with a value of over $1,000. Thomas would not be required to report the purchase if the property was his or his spouse's primary personal residence, but this stipulation does not apply to this purchase, which Thomas did not report.

Both Thomas and Crow have released statements downplaying the significance of the gifts, with Thomas maintaining that the trips. Crow responded to the latest disclosure with a statement to ProPublica saying that he approached Thomas about the purchase with an eye on honoring his legacy.“My intention is to one day create a public museum at the Thomas home dedicated to telling the story of our nation’s second black Supreme Court Justice,"Thomas' office did not respond to an Associated Press request for comment.

Sold some real estate, including the house his mother still lives in, which then received another $65k of upgrades for her. Uncle Clarence is a crook, and between him and the 6-figure credit card debt Kavanaugh got paid of by a patron, this SCOTUS is illegitimate.

Ask SpeakerPelosi how she feels about these kinds of deals... Just sayin'...

$100,000 please!? But let's not look at Pelosi's insider trading, or how innumerable legislators have enriched themselves on a government salary.

The story cites documents and deeds. That is reporting them.

So

All the liberal racists are out in force!

Literally nothing will happen besides the wailing and gnashing of teeth. Rich gonna Rich.

Yahoo is state-run media. 3 LIKES.....it looks like everybody knows it too, except for a few of their personal burner accounts.

Now do Democratic Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs and the Sinaloa Drug Cartel Mortgage Deeds!

I mean come on!!! How much more dirt are you gonna find before he needs to be impeached and or removed from office guy needs to go!

OK? Why is Yahoo News gaslighting people again about a nothing burger?

SO WHAT

Thomas didn’t disclose property sale to Republican megadonor, Harlan Crow report saysJustice Clarence Thomas allegedly sold properties in Savannah, Georgia to Texas billionaire and Republican megadonor Harlan Crow in 2014 and did not report the transactions in financial disclosures. There is a group that is doing a deep dive into Kagen Sotomayer and Jackson and so far it has yielded a stack of compromised info on all 3. While his mother still *lives* inside with new remodeling paid for her. Surely it was an unfortunate mistake. His Highness Clarence Thomas wouldn't break the law, would he?
