[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I gather going after Virginia Thomas is the left's new means of trying to create another Supreme Court vacancy.  It's all so transparent.  [/quote]

Surprise, surprise.  AOC now calling for Clarence Thomas to either resign or be impeached: https://thehill.com/homenews/house/600145-ocasio-cortez-to-clarence-thomas-resign-or-face-impeachment

Who could have seen that coming?  Oh, wait, me.  I did.  Doubt all you want haters.[/quote]

Other Democrats, the ones who are actually in charge of things, want him to recuse.

I’m neither an elected official nor in charge of anything. He needs to resign. [b]Taking money from the Heritage Foundation[/b] (let’s not try to be precious and pretend that they keep their money totally separate)? Do you know how many cases he should have recused from? Should recuse from going forward? He needs to resign. Not like Roberts gets what a partisan joke he presides over. [/quote]

Hang on, you think that the mere fact that his wife was paid by Heritage is enough to mean he should have recused from cases?  Failure to disclose is a problem, for sure.  But think about what that would mean.  Many justices have spouses who gain income from law firms who represent clients with interests before the court.  Should they all recuse?  What if somebody's spouse received money to speak at an ACLU event?  A Planned Parenthood event?  Recusal required?[/quote]
DP. John Roberts’ wife was a very talented lawyer with a big firm who became a legal headhunter instead once Roberts was confirmed for SCOTUS, to avoid any possibility of conflict. There’s no telling how many cases that Thomas has decided where one of the parties, or one of the interest groups writing amicus briefs on behalf of the parties, was someone who’s paying Ginni Thomas. She’s been in every right wing thing everywhere forever.[/quote]
