Actually no one has ever been taxed 90% of their income. That's a 90% marginal rate. It means that above a certain amount you were taxed 90% only on income above that amount. So say it's 90% marginal rate above 1, 000, 000. Then if you make 1,100, 000 you will pay 90% on 100,000. And lower rates on the other 1,000,000.

Canadian PM Justin Trudeau was embroiled in a similar scandal by accepting a trip by Aga Khan. He had to reimburse the value of the trip out of pocket for conflict of interest as a result. If #ClarenceThomas had to reimburse the value of the last 20 years of trips, at $500K per trip, that's $10 Million he owes his friend, Crow, that Crow could not turn around and reimburse him. It would probably break Thomas financially, on a Judicial salary of just around $250,000, criminal liability aside. A better punishment than whatever the fine would be.
