Hi there,

I believe that people who are concerned about war and peace, democracy, the climate catastrophe, and economic and racial justice, are not a fringe minority, not even a silent majority, but the silenced majority—silenced by the corporate media. But we can't do it without your support. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be TRIPLED until midnight ET, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. With your contribution, we can continue to go to where the silence is, to bring you the voices of the silenced majority. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much!

Clarence Thomas Finally Discloses Luxury Travel in Financial Disclosure Filings

HeadlineSep 01, 2023

Beleaguered Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas acknowledged he took four flights on the private jet of conservative megadonor Harlan Crow last year as part of his annual financial filing. He also amended previous filings with allegedly “inadvertently omitted” information. This comes after ProPublica and others revealed Thomas had failed to disclose at least 38 luxury trips from Crow and three other right-wing billionaires for decades. Thomas and his family also sold three properties to Crow. Rhode Island Democratic Senator Sheldon Whitehouse said, “This late-come effort at 'Clean-up on Aisle Three' won’t deter us from fully investigating the massive, secret, right-wing billionaire influence in which this Court is enmired.”
