Aug. 6 (UPI) — Clarence Thomas continues to conceal international travel covered by a wealthy Republican donor, a top Democratic senator said as he revealed a previously undisclosed trip the Supreme Court justice and his wife enjoyed more than a decade ago aboard Harlan Crow’s private jet. Citing U.S. Customs and Border Protection records, Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon said in a letter Monday that Thomas and his wife, conservative activist Ginni Thomas, flew round trip aboard Crow’s private jet from Hawaii to New Zealand in November of 2010.

The letter was addressed to Crow’s lawyers in demand of financial and travel records concerning their client to see if personal trips involving Thomas were being used to evade paying taxes.
