Clarence Thomas and the Ethics of Undisclosed Money

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is facing renewed scrutiny following the revelation that he sold his childhood home to GOP mega-donor Harlan Crow and never disclosed the sale. While some experts are calling for his resignation or impeachment, others say there is little chance of that happening due to the lack of regulatory oversight and disciplinary measures for Supreme Court justices. However, the controversies may lead to internal policing and behavioral changes within the top court, including the adoption of a code of ethics or subjecting itself to the existing code of ethics that applies to other judges.
