If we want healthy people, we need healthy work: reasonable demands, control over work processes, supportive supervisors and co-workers, job security, reasonable work hours, safe physical environment, and more.

BREAKING: Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is hit with a devastating new bombshell as reporters reveal that he may have committed “criminal” acts as a new report shows his corruption “is more extensive than previously known.”

But it gets WAY worse for Thomas…

According to the new ProPublica report, Thomas had also enjoyed “numerous flights on private planes, skybox tickets to sporting events, stays at luxury resorts, and a standing invitation to play at a high-end private golf club in Florida.

The new report is the most scandalous and broadest look yet at how Thomas’ social circle has funded – with limited disclosure to the public – a regular stream of extravagant excursions and events since he became a Supreme Court justice. These costly trips and travel perks often went unreported on the justice’s financial disclosure forms, ProPublica found in its investigation.

This latest investigation unearths a pattern of gifts to Thomas from Crow and three other billionaires who have been major contributors to Republican causes: David Sokol, the former heir apparent of Berkshire Hathaway; the late H. Wayne Huizenga, who made his vast fortune in his ownership of Blockbuster, Waste Management Inc. and other major companies; and Paul “Tony” Novelly, who formerly owned an oil company.

ProPublica interviewed more than 100 people, including staff that would have worked some of the trips that Thomas took. It also reviewed records obtained from the US Marshals Service, tax court filings, and personal photographs.

Sokol acknowledged in a statement to ProPublica that he hosted the Thomases. “We have never once discussed any pending court matter,” Sokol said. “Our conversations have always revolved around helping young people, sports, and family matters.”

“As to the use of private aviation,” he added, “I believe that given security concerns all of the Supreme Court justices should either fly privately or on governmental aircraft.”

Both the lack of transparency about his financial relationships with Republican megadonors, and the jet-setting lifestyle he’s enjoyed because of those friendships, put Thomas out of step with how lower court judges and other government officials approach their ethical obligations, legal experts told ProPublica.

Jeremy Fogel, a former judge who for years reviewed lower court judges’ financial disclosures, told ProPublica the amount of undisclosed gifts Thomas received is unlike anything he’s ever seen.

“In my career I don’t remember ever seeing this degree of largesse given to anybody,” said Fogel. “I think it’s unprecedented.”

The new revelations also raise questions about whether Thomas broke the law.

BREAKING: Trumper Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene does her most shamelessly hypocritical flip flop yet, announces that she will NOT be releasing the January 6 Capitol security video tapes that she has been promising to release for months — and her reasons why are HILARIOUS…

First, Greene says that she can’t release the videos because she would pibe “putting the security of the Capitol at risk.”

That’s right. The same woman who helped Trump incite e deadly insurrection — and then spent the entire time since defending the violent insurrectionists — now expects Americans to believe that she actually gives a damn about the “security of the Capitol.”

But it gets even better…

She then openly admits that she also can’t release the security videos because liberal “groups” will “use facial recognition software” to identify her fellow insurrectionists and “hand them over” to the FBI.

Straight from the horse’s mouth, folks. She can’t release the tapes because it will land her MAGA seditionists in prison.

Please RT and ❤️ if you think that Marjorie Traitor Greene is a dangerous hypocrite — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a new Twitter competitor that is growing like wildfire because it banned Greene for life and because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/HnJzSKj4Hp

I don’t think people realize how wealthy people live. Yacht owners have staff on call, including a chef, just to be available when they feel like getting on their toy boat. A Walmart grandkid has a $300M boat docked at an island and when she decides to take the boat out, nearly all the fuel available on the island is used to fill it. Our fiscal problems are not due to 54 year old people on food stamps not working, our debt is due to too many billionaires not paying their fair share.

BREAKING: Democratic Sen. John Fetterman delivers a star-making takedown of Republican policies and corporate greed during a hearing with a Silicon Valley Bank executive.

"Republicans want to give a work requirement for SNAP. A hungry family has to have these kinds of penalties," said Fetterman.

SNAP is the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. Republicans want to make it harder to access the life-saving program as part of their ongoing war on the poor.

"Shouldn't you have a working requirement after we bail out your bank with billions?" Fetterman asked the exec.

He's right. It's absurd to target the poor and unprivileged while greedy bankers are wrecking businesses, tanking the economy, and then floating to safety on their golden parachutes!

Retweet if you think that Fetterman is absolutely right!

@MarnieDee1 @healthyworknow @WSJ Yes, quite right. Income is declining. 53 million Americans, 44 percent of the labor force, earn low wages. Job security is declining. Less income, job insecurity, and little to no health insurance mean poorer health for many workers & their families. #healthyworknow
