Omg. Remember when Rs would flip TF out over “speaker fees”? We’ve come quite a long way since then. |
No, the rules for other relatives has been “do they involve themselves politically?” Ginni was involved in trying to overthrow the government. I know you right wingers have a laptop obsession, but this is actually bad. |
Clarence Thomas currently fills a position on the Supreme Court and he accepts speaker fees from large political groups who potentially have cases before him. Can he be any more corrupt? |
Perhaps that is why Roberts refuses to investigate: he doesn’t want to know how corrupt Thomas is. |
| What happens if a SCOTUS gets impeached before a decision is released. Can a justice still vote on active cases while being impeached? |
. I think he can. We’ve only had one impeached in the 1800s and he survived impeachment. We don’t have enough of a majority in Congress to be successful so we really only have retirement or death to remove him as with other SC justices. We still don’t know what that week in the hospital was about. |
It’s a lovely thought you’re having, but what do you imagine will happen to make an impeachment a likely thing? The GOP still effectively controls the Senate. I don’t know much about impeaching a scotus member, but I would imagine it goes through the same channels as presidential impeachment. And six scotus members need to be impeached as they all perjured themselves at their hearings. |
Yeah - it's a pipe dream to hold these corrupt, lying justices accountable for their actions. |
Why isn’t Thomas being held accountable for this corruption? |
Because the Republicans like the corruption. |

Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the conservative activist and wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, pressed Arizona lawmakers after the 2020 election to set aside Joe Biden’s popular-vote victory and choose “a clean slate of Electors,” according to emails obtained by The Washington Post.
The emails, sent by Ginni Thomas to a pair of lawmakers on Nov. 9, 2020 , argued that legislators needed to intervene because the vote had been marred by fraud. Though she did not mention either candidate by name, the context was clear. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/2022/05/20/ginni-thomas-arizona-election-emails/ |
Ginni is a busy woman. |
| Anyone else want to see her arrested for sedition? |
