Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas has been embroiled in controversy, facing accusations of corruption and a lack of transparency. Allegations include accepting free trips, gifts, tuition, and even a free RV from a billionaire, which have raised questions about his impartiality in hearing election-related cases. Additionally, Thomas, along with Justices Brett Kavanaugh and Samuel Alito, have expressed concerns about the Supreme Court's emergency docket and the state of freedom of religion in America. Thomas has publicly decried the 'nastiness and lies' directed against him, which he attributes to his and his wife's involvement in political matters. His remarks were made during a speech at the 11th Circuit Judicial Conference, where he also criticized the media's coverage of his actions.

Americans are in general far too deferential to people in power. @espinsegall's "translation" of Clarence Thomas's speech to the Eleventh Circuit Judicial Conference is a welcome exception. https://t.co/2KJbwZUpGJ

Thomas: “My wife and I the last two or three years it’s been — just the nastiness and the lies, it’s just incredible.” Translation: “They would not let my wife and me overturn a Presidential election.” Justice Thomas Annotated and Translated: https://t.co/jBDjXshCKY
Justice Clarence Thomas delivered an angry, self-pitying, and truth-challenged speech at the 11th Circuit Judicial Conference. In "Justice Thomas Annotated," @espinsegall lifts the veil on some of the biggest whoppers. https://t.co/Kk6LgOBpmg
Justice Thomas decries 'nastiness' and 'lies' against him. With all the sketchy things he has done & not been transparent about, does he think this is unjustified? We have to sometimes presume likelihood of guilt even if we can’t convict him based on that. https://t.co/zNJZC4ZVsV

Clarence Thomas hears election cases while his wife conspired to overthrow democracy. He took free trips, gifts, tuition and even a free RV from a shadowy billionaire. Crooked clarence is corrupt as hell and should resign from the Supreme Court. https://t.co/jFZrTGjAsi
