Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas disclosed that he received four free trips last year as new questions emerged about President Biden’s recent stay at billionaire Tom Steyer’s Lake …
President Biden out while on vacation in Tahoe, California on August 23, 2023.The county, however, quietly closed the case last week and said that it could not “substantiate” that a violation occurred — despite a violation seeming to be confirmed by the White House’s public claim that Biden was renting the home and Strehlow confirming that Steyer lacked a permit.
Spokespeople for Steyer and the White House did not respond to requests for comment and it’s unclear how the terms of a rental agreement ever would be disclosed unless the parties choose to do so. Read most liberally, the personal hospitality exception in federal ethics laws allow for the omission of all free trips at the homes of benefactors claimed to be friends, but Painter and fellow ethics expert Walter Shaub, who led the Obama-era Office of Government Ethics, say that it’s clear the law only applies if the homeowner is present.
