of sites in Israel and Jordan as the guest of Morris Kahn in 2018, disclosing the travel under “reimbursements.” Similarly, Justice Stephen Breyer was flown to a 2013 wedding in Nantucket by David Rubenstein, also listing the trip as a “reimbursement.” Paoletta is right that Ginsburg and Breyer—who, by the way, are no longer on the court, Ginsburg having died in 2020 and Breyer having retired last year—under my straightforward reading of the rule, should have listed these as gifts.
Nonetheless, both Ginsburg and Breyer clearly misclassified their travels. The trips, as described by the two justices, should have been disclosed as gifts, including their value, rather than reimbursements. Again, Ginsburg and Breyer are no longer on the Supreme Court. Thomas is. Paoletta also complains that Breyer took “17 trips funded by billionaire Democrat Pritzker family for architecture board under REIMBURSEMENTS on his form.” Those trips were actually funded by the Pritzker Foundation, not the family , for meetings related to awarding the Pritzker Architecture Prize. Rather than gifts, they were correctly classified as reimbursements.
