Justice Clarence Thomas checked the box “none” for his wife’s income during a period when Ginni Thomas earned more than $686,000 from the Heritage Foundation. When called on the lie, he said it was “due to a misunderstanding of the filing instructions"

Opinion | Clarence Thomas’s explanations fail the laugh test

It was hard to believe he could be as much of a puppet of the most reactionary forces in American society as he seemed. Silly me. That's exactly who he is.
