Hi,

John Oliver has had enough of Clarence Thomas’ ethics scandals. On his TV
show, Oliver offered Clarence Thomas a luxury motor coach and $1 million
per year to resign from the Supreme Court.^1 Ridiculous right? But it also
sounds a little too familiar.

That’s because Clarence Thomas has accepted luxury mega-yacht vacations
and expensive gifts for years from GOP billionaire mega-donor Harlan Crow
(without disclosing any of them to the public).^2

And that’s just the beginning of his ethics scandals. Another revolves
around his decision to switch his position on a legal theory in order to
side with Big Oil giant Chevron in a landmark case after his wife
reportedly accepted secret payments from a shadowy conservative network
who was advocating for this change.^3 And his failure to recuse himself in
a case where he could gut environmental protections to help Big Oil.

shouldn’t be on the Supreme Court. It’s time to impeach Clarence Thomas!

When did Clarence Thomas start receiving these secret gifts? Well, Thomas
complained about salary for Supreme Court Justices two decades ago, and
Republicans worried he may step down from SCOTUS. Then, Thomas began
receiving the lavish gifts, luxury superyacht vacations, and secretive
income from GOP mega-donors.^4

Thomas’ failure to disclose all of these gifts, vacations, and income have
scandalized the Supreme Court for months and months. And this failure to
disclose breaks the law according to two ethics experts.^5

If we want to stop Thomas’ long list of unethical behavior and ensure the
integrity of the high court, the U.S. House MUST impeach Thomas.
