There was a single word that encapsulated such an outrage: vicuña. President Dwight Eisenhower’s chief of staff, Sherman Adams, accepted a vicuña coat from a Boston textile manufacturer doing business with the federal government. Now Thomas sneers at the law by failing to disclose gifts from billionaires eager to gain influence.
