SCOTUS is a life time appointment. This is more in line with an imperial Royal appointment. There is no accountability. I am surprised there have been no calls for Thomas to resign. The dems are meekly calling for a very weak ethics reform to be done by the corrupt justices themselves. They have said no. Now the dems will backdown. This is over. Thomas stays and the conservatives can now openly solicit money for rulings. Welcome to the new reality. |
I am so effing sick of this hot take of blaming the Democrats for the failings of the GOP. Where are the calls among the GOP - allegedly so obsessed with honor and law abiding (lol) - for Thomas to resign? |
Because everyone knows the republicans are criminals. No one expects anything else from them. |
PBS aired an excellent documentary yesterday evening on Ginni and Clarence Thomas. Try to watch when it's repeated. |
This just in: Quittin-Time Clarence and Three-Scoops Ginni love free stuff.

The PBS documentary someone just mentioned can be watched on YouTube. It's nearly two hours long. My takeaway is that Justice Thomas has had a chip on his shoulder his entire life. We are all just living his revenge. And Ginni sounded very drunk when she called Anita Hill. I'm glad the answering machine recorded it.
I'm still wondering why they took his grandnephew from his mother at age six and the boy needed a boarding school for troubled youth by his teenaged years. What did they do to him, or is Ginni just not maternal? I know it's not germane to his corruption on the Supreme Court but I'm troubled about how they treated that child. He is over 21 now. https://youtu.be/wJuRx1wARUk |
No calls for Thomas to resign? |
Don’t worry, we won’t know any more for a while. It’s time for an extension! It doesn’t matter because we should all just shut up and stop noticing the GOP “justices” squidgy relationship to the truth. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2023/06/07/supreme-court-justice-disclosures-clarence-thomas/ |
I listened to a Fresh Air segment about him this week. I don't usually play armchair psychologist, but I came away from it convinced he has complex PTSD (or something like it) and that explains A LOT of his choices. I also agree that I think there should have been Dem calls for him to resign. |
A whole bunch of Democrats have called for Thomas to resign. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2023/04/19/clarence-thomas-resign-supreme-court/11695763002/ |
Crow also paid for Hidden Lake Academy, a residential therapeutic treatment center plagued by allegations of abuse, after he was expelled from Randolph-Macon. Thomas’s grandnephew is talking. https://newrepublic.com/post/182635/clarence-thomas-son-mark-martin-jail-relationship |
