Hostin's co-hosts were discussing the allegations that surfaced regarding undisclosed gifts given to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. While there have been calls by members of Congress to have the Department of Justice look into the alleged gifts, the celebrity hosts were discussing who is in charge of checking the Supreme Court."I learned there were three different branches of government. Unfortunately, a lot of people don’t know that.
Hostin would go on to clarify that neither the court nor the justices have responded to the latest reports, and Thomas claimed he followed the advice of colleagues. Ginni Thomas also denied any conflict of interest between her activism and her husband’s work on the Supreme Court. A ProPublica report revealed that Thomas allegedly accepted invites to"luxury trips" and paid vacations. Thomas also faced scrutiny after allegations arose that he did not disclose a real estate transaction with Dallas-based real estate developer and GOP donor Harlan Crow, in which the mega-donor bought Thomas's childhood home in 2014 to create a museum in the justice's honor.
