Justice Thomas, who regularly hears complex legal cases, claims near $700,000 paid to his wife was “inadvertently omitted due to a misunderstanding of the filing instructions.” This fortune was paid to her by the Heritage Foundation, a conservative policy group. This along with admitting his own paid appearance at a private political retreat organized by Charles Koch, a prominent conservative financier.
"Justices Thomas and Antonin Scalia said in a statement released by the court on Thursday that they had each spoken at dinners at the Koch retreat and that their expenses were paid by the Federalist Society, a conservative legal group." -NYT
