Nothing will happen. He's too important to the conservative (bowel) movement. If ignorance of the law is no excuse for breaking it, then machinations of enforcement, legislation, and interpretation of said law should be held to the highest standard. He should get triple the maximum sentence because of his position.

A completely corrupt judge, and the only thing they can charge him with is tax evasion. It reminds me of Capone.
Probably nothing will happen, since the whole government is corrupt, but it's nice to see someone try.
He could. He won't. And even if by some miracle he is, nothing will come of it.
Could use it as an opportunity to replace him with someone younger and whiter before the Republicans lose control of the Senate.
I assume MAGA considers Clarence "there's a pube on my Coke can" Thomas to be one of the good blacks.
Isn't Monday a federal holiday?
Republicans should welcome this. They can pressure Thomas to resign, since he's old anyway, then appoint a successor before the Midterms. They don't want to try to shove a MAGA SCOTUS nominee through a Democrat Senate.
Okay, so they'll appeal it all the way up to the Supreme Court, and Thomas will decide that there's no need to recuse himself, no conflict of interest when he's ruling on a case where he himself is the defendant.
I don't think there is an avenue to the US Supreme Court. It would go to Virginia's Supreme Court.
But he's a SUPREME COURT JUDGE! He CANT Break the Law!
-Law and Order Republicans!
