Sad to see in this day and age

We could all use friends like Justice Thomas' friends.

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas accepted millions of dollars' worth of gifts over the past two decades on the bench, a total nearly 10 times the value of all gifts received by his fellow justices during the same time, according to a new analysis.

Look at the three who accepted the most bribes gifts - they're ahead by miles. (And one's even been dead for 8 years; Scalia had built up a nice lead till Thomas went roaring past him.)

It's laughable that some think Merchan should have recused himself but think it's A-OK that Thomas and Alito don't recuse themselves from rulings involving the convicted felon their wives worship.
