I know you do. I'm asking if you have anything beyond your (and ProPublica's) speculation that supports your belief. So far, you've provided nothing.

You're willing to believe that there's "evidence of bribery" in Thomas's case. I'm willing to believe that ethical lines were crossed, but I don't see evidence of bribery. What's the difference then, assuming that your "evidence of bribery" continues to be something that can't be produced?

You blame me and tell me I'm all MAGA and shit because I don't see the same "evidence of bribery" that you do, even though you can't provide examples of this evidence.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe this issue isn't me?

So, accepting multi-millions over two decades in exchange for consistent conservative votes on the SCOTUS doesn't strike you as corrupt? Figures.

That's not what I asked you, is it? I asked you for evidence that Thomas accepted bribes. In an earlier post, you stated that evidence was plentiful. Yes, when asked to point to that evidence, you can't.

Figures.

I really didn't feel like perusing, cutting and pasting from the ProPublica articles only to have you dismiss them for some stupid reason (i.e., the guy who gave him millions claims to be his "friend"). If you want to know, read them for yourself. They range from exotic vacations, cruises, fishing trips, private plane rides, purchasing a home for his mom, a loan for a quarter million RV that was forgiven by the donor ...

It's funny how dismiss highly valuable and documented (though undisclosed by Thomas) gifts yet rail breathlessly about allegations against Biden in Ukraine that have been thoroughly discredited and which have led to criminal charges in the US and Ukraine as well as an impeachment to those who concocted and spread them.
