Personally, I think Supreme courts justices shouldn't be receiving these kinds of gifts. Pay them more!! I don't care if Sotomayor or Alito is getting the gifts, they shouldn't take them. If you have rules for receiving gifts for regular government workers, they should have the same for judges.

  Because there wasn't a high profile report about the behavior, so many weren't aware of it.

    Why wasn't there a high profile report 5 years ago?

      It seems like because other justices properly disclosed the gifts, so there was less of a scandal.

  Probably because Beyer disclosed his trips/gifts, instead of lying about them, in violation of the law, like Thomas has done. I don't love the fact that any justices are accepting gifts like this, but, well... it's a fact of life, and they all do it. Given that I can't change it, it's not a hill I care to die on. But at least some justices comply with the reporting requirements.
