Ginni Thomas Lawyer Asks Jan 6 Panel For ‘Better Justification’ For Testimony

Which one? One has the appearance of a justice the other acts more like a justice.

Huh, I thought she volunteered to speak with the committee. Guess she changed her mind and yup her attorney is fishing. Sure, Ginni is under enormous strain and pressure but so is/was Cassidy Hutchinson and she managed to do her patriotic duty.

Justice Clarence Thomas, the only one who can be impeached.

If Thomas does not recuse himself he commits to being unfit for his post. It may not get him out of there, but the stigma is in cement at that point. Even on the Republican side. He may not care but his entire history will suddenly centralize on that act or lack of one.

Agreed. I wish the US had a department whose mission would be to uphold the rule of law. Talk about a missed opportunity!

Oh…wait:

The mission of the Department of Justice (DOJ) is to uphold the rule of law, to keep our country safe, and to protect civil rights.

Meadows is drifting into seditious conspiracy territory and look at her texts to him:

“The most important thing you can realize right now is that there are no rules in war.”

That statement appears in a November 14, 2020 text from Ginni Thomas to Mark Meadows and it is about the election. It followed a text to Meadows from a week earlier that said:

“Do not concede. It takes time for the army who is gathering for his back.”

Link.

Kinda makes her look like part of the conspiracy.

It’s that or maybe now she knows she’ll be forced to answer trick questions like “do you believe in the peaceful transfer of power in the USA.”

She can — but she leaves a slime trail when she does.

It sounds like the idiot lawyer here is looking at Jim Jordan for a legal strategy.

“As she has already indicated, Mrs. Thomas is eager to clear her name and is willing to appear before the Committee to do so,” Paoletta wrote. “However, based on my understanding of the communications that spurred the Committee’s request, I do not understand the need to speak with Mrs. Thomas.”

Paoletta answers his own question. Idiot. The response to his inquiry needs to include the word “referral”.

It’s too bad about that. The name Mrs. Sedition has such an alliterative ring about it.

I’m pretty sure that’s the case going “forward” as well. :slight_smile:

She’ll be in like Flynn with the committee: Fifth Fifth and more Fifth. “Fifty Fifths, if you please!”

A lawyer isn’t an office holder who can be impeached. You have to be somebody.

Perhaps, but wouldn’t the law (assuming we have an actual rule of law any more) allow for “acceptance” of prior contracts before the law was changed? So, in perfect Republican consistency, she already got hers, screw the rest of y’all.

Methinks ole Ginni might have been using her husband’s position to make promises on his behalf. “Do this thing to help Trump and you’ll have a friend on the Supreme Court.” I would not be a bit surprised if promises to some of those states legislators got a lot more overt. “If you get in any trouble, Clarence will have your back.”

…At least they think they did.

I was talking to a lawyer friend about that. If Obergfell or Loving are overturned then those marriage were never legal and thus they no longer exist.

So the wife of a SC Justice - who is supposed to be the highest purveyor of justice is declining to testify to a Congressional Committee. Yawn.
