Gee, I wonder whose reporting ultra-right wing Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas used to justify the unanimous ruling just handed down? Surely not the “lefty” WaPo and New Yorker, right, Whell? They can’t be trusted!

Quote:
Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in a recent opinion that civil forfeitures have “become widespread and highly profitable.”

“This system — where police can seize property with limited judicial oversight and retain it for their own use — has led to egregious and well-chronicled abuses,” Thomas wrote, referring to reporting by The Washington Post and the New Yorker.
