Businessman Harlan Crow Says ‘Leftists’ Funded ‘Political Hit Job’ on Justice Clarence Thomas

Harlan Crow, a rich Republican donation, claims that” political reach jobs” have affected both him and his colleague, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas.

Crow, 73, came into the public eye earlier this month when a left-leaning media outlet claimed that the traditional justice had been taking the Texas tycoon on opulent holiday for years without disclosing them in ethics reports. Thomas, 74, said on April 7 that he had been told not to state the trips, but added that doing so would be in accordance with different reporting requirements put in place by the federal judiciary.

Additionally, despite the company’s’s closure years past, it has recently been reported that Thomas has been disclosing earnings from a real estate partnership for years. According to the Ethics in Government Act of 1978, Thomas sold his mother’s’s house to Crow last week but failed to disclose the transaction. Crow has stated that his company, Crow Holdings, is currently managing assets totaling about$ 30 billion.

Democrats contend that accepting a friend’s’s generosity is corrupt in and of itself, despite the fact that the partner has no case pending before the Supreme Court. The Epoch Times consulted legal experts who refuted this claim. Legal experts already assert that because the Constitution, neither Congress, established the Supreme Court, it is the only body with the authority to regulate it. Judges can choose to abide by laws established by politicians if they so choose, but forcing them to do so raises legal concerns, according to experts.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, a representative from D-N. Y .) Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse( D – R.) has demanded that the fairness be impeached. I. Thomas should be referred to the U.S. Department of Justice for possible ethical violations, according to( who chairs the panel on federal judges on the Senate Judiciary Committee ) and the Judicial Conference of the United States, the body established by Congress to make national court policy.

Sen. Dick Durbin( D-Ill. ), the chairman of the full committee, has stated that a hearing will be held” regarding the need to restore confidence in the Supreme Court’s’s ethical standards.” Chief Justice John Roberts may look into the situation, according to Durbin.

Critics also assert that justices who have their spouses engaged in political engagement, such as Thomas, whose spouse Ginni Thomas supports former President Donald Trump and is involved in traditional politics, ought to refrain from taking part in such cases. The jurist refused to withdraw from the numerous concerns to the contentious 2020 presidential election that reached the Supreme Court despite stress.

Crow stated in an interview with The Dallas Morning News on April 17 that he wanted to” set the record straight” regarding” technically inaccurate” and” strong political plan” press coverage.

Crow remarked,” I think it’s’s a political hit job.” The internet, in my opinion, doesn’t really care more about Harlan Crow, and I believe they are correct. Harlan Crow don’t be of much concern to them.

However, I believe that the internet, particularly this leftist-funded ProPublica collection, has a goal of undermining the Supreme Court. What they did was truly accurate. It is devoid of unity. They’ve’ve done a pretty good job of unfairly slamming Justice Thomas and, more importantly, me over the past week or two.

George Soros, a prominent donation to the Democratic Party, provided funding for the left-wing volunteer ProPublica through his Foundation to Develop Open Society. Conservatives and Republicans have harshly criticized Soros for funding the plans of numerous area attorneys across the country who are anti-crime.

Thomas and Crow were given the chance to post before ProPublica’s’s articles were published, according to the Dallas media store. According to Stephen Engelberg, editor in chief of ProPublica, neither Thomas nor Crow questioned the reported points.

Crow described how he first met Thomas in the nation’s’s capital 27 years ago. Cr. discovered that Thomas had to travel to Dallas for a speaking relationship.
