Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas issued a statement Friday confirming aProPublica reportthat he went on lavish globe-trotting trips on the dime of a wealthy Republican donor.ProPublica said Thomas did not report the trips as gifts. In a statement, Thomas said he sought guidance and was told he did not need to report the vacations. Harlan and Kathy Crow are among our dearest friends, and we have been friends for over twenty-five years, Thomas said. As friends do, we have joined them on a number of family trips during the more than a quarter century we have known them. Early in my tenure at the Court, I sought guidance from my colleagues and others in the judiciary, and was advised that this sort of personal hospitality from close personal friends, who did not have business before the Court, was not reportable.
