Good, ever-lovin’ grief. What in the world does one make of this acknowledgement from the wife of a sitting associate justice on the U.S. Supreme Court, that she attended a Donald Trump rally on 1\/6 before rally attendees decided to storm Capitol Hill in that insane insurrection against the federal government?<\/p>\n

I believe we have a serious breach of ethics steeped in conflict of interest.<\/p>\n

The admission comes from Ginni Thomas, wife of Justice Clarence Thomas. Mrs. Thomas stood in the crowd on the Ellipse that day prior to The Donald’s speech. She said she left because she got cold. Then all hell broke loose.<\/p>\n

Thomas’s political activism is well-known. She is a far-right believer in causes. She is an ardent political supporter of The Donald.<\/p>\n

She also is married to one of the nine justices who voted 8-1 to disallow The Donald’s claim of executive privilege in an effort to keep him from releasing documents to the House committee examining the 1\/6 riot; the document release was ordered by the National Archives.<\/p>\n

Who cast the dissenting vote? None other than Justice Thomas?<\/p>\n

I am putting together 2 plus 2 and I keep coming with up 4. Which is my way of saying that Ginni Thomas’s involvement with the 1\/6 mob must have something to do with the way her husband came down on a key judicial decision.<\/p>\n

This dot-connection stinks. It wreaks.<\/p>\n

If I were speaker of the House of Representatives, I likely would be considering articles of impeachment against Justice Thomas. Not that they would result in his being removed from the nation’s highest court.<\/p>\n

Too many Republican members of Congress have lost their spine.<\/p>\n
