The Times reported that just months after Thomas joined the bench in 1991, he was welcomed into the Horatio Alger Association…where he forged relationships with a select group of largely wealthy conservatives. This organization granted him access to wealthy friends who gifted Thomas with vacation retreats and V.I.P. tickets to sporting events, as well as invited him to parties, according to The Times.

The Times’s investigation discovered that Thomas received benefits from the members of the association and large donors to conservative causes. Among many of the contacts he made through the group was David Sokol, an investor and former executive at Berkshire Hathaway, who hosted Thomas and his wife Ginny at their ranch in Montana and property in Florida.

The investigation said that Thomas did not disclose many of the gifts and trips over the last two decades reported by the Times. Thomas used to report the personal gifts and travel benefits he received, but the Times reported that after a 2004 investigation by The Los Angeles Times came out about his disclosures, he largely stopped disclosing them.

The Times noted that Sokol, along with other members of the association, also funded the marketing for an HBO film about Anita Hill’s allegations of sexual harassment brought against Thomas. Thomas has also been a speaker at the Horatio Alger Association’s annual inaugural reception and ceremony, which he has hosted at the Supreme Court, according to the investigation.

According to the association’s website, Thomas is an honorary member of the board of directors.

Emphasis mine.

Sorry to quote so much of the story, but for any who don’t actually read the articles, these are the main points and pretty damning. So not only has Thomas been proven to receive extravagant gifts from wealthy, conservative donors who have had cases seen before the Supreme Court, without disclosing them or recusing himself, he is also proven to have been involved with an organization that made a documentary about the woman who accused him of sexual misconduct. And he is a member of that board.

He couldn’t be more corrupt if he tried.
