Clarence Thomas Again Moves To Block Jan. 6 Inquiry That Could Implicate His Wife
In an unwritten dissent on Monday, Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas showed that he would have blocked enforcement of a subpoena issued by the House Jan. 6 Committee for the phone and text records of Arizona Republican Party Chair Kelli Ward.
The committee is seeking Ward’s records related to her role in former President Donald Trump’s effort to steal the 2020 election as a fake elector casting ballots in the Electoral College for Trump.
This is the second time Thomas has indicated that he would intervene to hamper the committee’s efforts to investigate the plot to overturn the 2020 election in which his wife, Ginni Thomas, played a role
Thomas previously was the lone justice to dissent from the court’s refusal to block the release of White House records held by the National Archives to the Jan. 6 Committee. It was later revealed in March that his wife had been in communication with White House officials about Trump’s machinations to overturn President Joe Biden’s victory.
Text messages between Trump’s former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows and Ginni Thomas revealed the justice’s wife to be enraptured by baseless conspiracy theories about election fraud and involved in plotting with the White House to overturn Trump’s loss.
Email messages from Thomas to state lawmakers, including those in Arizona, revealed her efforts to pressure Republican state legislatures to reject Biden electors and appoint fake electors in support of Trump. These fake GOP elector slates, which included Ward, could then be submitted to Congress as part of Trump’s plan to get then-Vice President Mike Pence to reject Biden’s electors and declare Trump the victor.
Ward had asked the high court to block lower court decisions ordering her to comply with the committee’s subpoena. She declared the case “one of the most important First Amendment cases in history” and said forcing her to comply could put a “chill on public participation in partisan politics.”
But the court rejected her appeal, clearing the way for the House panel to get Ward’s phone records. Justice Samuel Alito joined Thomas in dissenting on the denial of Ward’s request.
While Thomas has refused to recuse himself from cases involving his wife’s political activities, he did previously recuse himself from cases involving his son.
Ginni Thomas testified privately before the Jan. 6 Committee in September. She reportedly told the panel that she still believes the lie that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.
Justice Thomas first ruled in favor of blocking the disclosure of Trump White House documents prior to his wife’s text messages with Meadows being publicly disclosed. Since then, congressional Democrats have called on him to recuse himself, resign or be impeached for inserting himself into cases that appear to be in defense of his wife’s political activities.
Others have noted that Thomas’ continued participation in Jan. 6 cases highlighted the need to require the court to abide by a binding ethics code.

Marjorie Taylor Greene calls for GOP ‘civil war’ after midterms failure
Marjorie Taylor Greene says she is ready unleash a civil war in the Republican Party after its poor showing in the midterms.
The Georgia congresswoman also indicated she would throw her support behind House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy in an interview with Steve Bannon’s War Room podcast.
“In order for us to succeed, we’re going to be forced to work together. That means we’re going to fight it out,” Ms Greene said.
“And I’m telling you, I’ve always said I’m not afraid of the civil war in the GOP. I lean into it.”
The GOP appears to be in open revolt after the Republican “red wave” failed to materialise in last week’s midterm elections.
House member Andy Biggs, a member of the GOP’s far-right Freedom Caucus like Ms Greene, is seeking to challenge Mr McCarthy for the leadership, according to reports in Politico.
Ms Greene said Mr Biggs is one of her “dearest friends”, but it was not the right time to have an internal fight for the party leadership.
“I actually think that’s a bad strategy when we’re looking at having a very razor-thin majority, with potentially 219 (seats), we’re talking about one vote,” she said.
“We have to put someone in for Speaker that is going to be elected, and not allow the Democrats to pull away one or two (votes), because that’s what they want to do,” she said.
“Believe me, they can do it. It can be done.”
Ms Greene also warned that some House Republicans could break away from the party and join Democrats to elect outgoing Congresswoman Liz Cheney to the Speaker’s chair.
“The danger is this, do we want to watch a challenge for Speaker of the House simply because the ‘Never Kevin’ movement — just like we’ve seen a ‘Never Trump” movement — do we want to see that challenge open the door to Nancy Pelosi handing the gavel to Liz Cheney?”
As of Monday afternoon, the Republicans were projected to be on track to have a narrow path to a majority in the House.

Even though they say this married couple hasn't necessarily consulted with each other regarding their political leanings, it is surely evidenced to this reader that Justice Thomas does in fact believe 'The Big Lie' himself; Trump still being President in his mind how can he be a neutral Justice if he cannot determine fact from fiction.Clarence Thomas Again Moves To Block Jan. 6 Inquiry That Could Implicate His Wife

this just backs up my thought that he was very carefully, thoroughly groomed for his debate against Warnock. he was told, word for word, how to reply, and he parroted back what he had been fed. it probably took them weeks of rehearsals, and he still pulled his junior Gman badge out at one point...

who was that guy?
When i was in my early 20s, living in Tampa, a friend took me out fishing in the gulf on his uncle's charter boat. The sharks were eating all the fish we caught before we could get them into the boat. My friend's uncle brought half a dozen cans of drano out of a cabinet, shoved them down the throats of some of the larger bait fish, and stabbed a couple of holes in them. He chummed up a big slick, then threw those fish in it. The sharks ate them, and a few minutes later, the water exploded, those 4 or 5 sharks that ate those fish were being burned alive, from the inside out...A horrible fate, and i did not approve, but what was i going to do? Swim home?
The rest of the sharks turned on those sharks, and quickly consumed them, only to be burned themselves...In about 15 minutes, at least 10 or 12 were dead, and many more were injured...
They all had the same eyes as MTG...
