I suppose that opinions will differ on the matter ....Reuters disagrees with those experts.

Clarence Thomas Broke the Law and It Isn’t Even Close
Putting the question of legality aside for a moment ... Clarence Thomas was selling influence to the highest bidder. That represents everything that a Supreme Court Justice should not be about. Clarence Thomas is a disgrace. His decisions can be bought.
It is pretty shocking that in 2023 America .... a black man not only is for sale, but is so of his own free will. He wants to be bought.Sounds reasonable in 2023 America. Plus he sexually harassed a black woman and is married to a white woman. Should have never been nominated, imo.
Stopping beating a dead horse...I was wondering who paid for all of RBG’s trips around the world to trash the US Constitution.

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg disclosed taking more trips than any other justice in 2018, totaling 14. She visited Tel Aviv, Israel where she was awarded a lifetime achievement award by the Genesis Prize Foundation. Shortly following the award ceremony, she disclosed being provided transportation, food and lodging as a tourist and guest of billionaire Israeli businessman Morris Kahn.
Kahn has had business before the Supreme Court before. The high court handed Kahn’s company Amdocs Limited a win in November 2017 when it declined to take up a patent-related case.

Show some evidence of Thomas selling influence.
Better check and get back 1978 Law states anything over $415 must be listed.Nope, looks like he hasn’t, rules didn’t change until this year.
US Supreme Court justices get tougher rules for reporting free trips, gifts
He's hanging out with and accepting luxury perks--worth huge dollars--from GOP activists. That's corruption, dude, plain and simple.
Of course he and his GOP benefactor will say that all the gifts didn't influence him--but let's not be naive. This is how influence peddling works.

* Granted, he comes at a high price.
Read through Harlan Crow's history. There are numerous cases where Clarence Thomas could have been doing the bidding of his master.
Except the nomination system we have is completely partisan and biased. The entire court is tainted by politics because of that nomination system. Should we impeach the entire court?Members of Congress have no duty of impartiality. It is of paramount importance that members of the judiciary remain impartial. Even the appearance of bias or impropriety taints the process.
Yes they are....and if they are not (Which they are) they are now and totally unethical anyway you look at it.SCOTUS and these vacations are not covered.
It makes no difference... Geez Judge in your pocket. A lot of questions for someone who thinks he is innocent. Regardless of the number of Cases before the Supreme court that he has heard he broke ethics law regarding the receiving of gifts...LOLHow many cases has Thomas heard that involve this guy or his companies? How many have even been in front of SCOTUS?
