Clarence Thomas IS conflicted

Are credentials required to give an opinion?   Good lord, shut this site down.  But I agree, Ellison has more gravitas on this issue.  I hope he keeps talking about Clarence.

In many African American communities "Uncle Tom" is a slur used to disparage a black person who is humiliatingly subservient or deferential to white people.

This is what now passes for “giving an opinion”? A truly pathetic attempt to justify your demeaning words. 
 

Racial slur = giving an opinion

WaPo bent out of shape conservatives defending Justice Thomas

 

Friday’s Washington Post included no story on the House Weaponization Subcommittee’s hearing with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Emma-Jo Morris on Big Tech censorship. But the front page had an obligatory front-page story on a grand jury investigating Donald Trump and this amazing scandal piece: “Activist Leo aided drive to lionize Thomas: Federalist Society figure uses his sway before and after naming of justices.”

 

It’s a scandal that Leonard Leo would organize positive publicity about a conservative Supreme Court justice. This is somehow…. unethical? Right under the “See more on A4” tag was a plug for the Senate Democrats passing a Supreme Court ethics bill.

 

In 2016, positive PR was organized around Justice Thomas serving 25 years on the court. But the year before, the Post was on the organized PR bandwagon celebrating the “Notorious RBG.” They were a part of that, so apparently it wasn’t scandalous. Maybe liberals don’t have to raise money for that when media outlets will do it for free. CNN made a gushy RBG documentary.

 

Inside the paper was a picture of Leonard Leo at -- uh-oh -- the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast. Reporters Shawn Boburg, Emma Brown, and Ann Marimow worked hard to imply something dastardly was going on with this Leo campaign for Clarence:

When conservative PR is a scandal and liberal PR is just PR, you get the distinct sense that the "Democracy Dies in Darkness" folks really don't like people organizing an opposing pile of publicity. They called this "a more aggressive approach that sought to sway public opinion through mass media." 

 

The Washington Post never attempts this?

Truth.

 

Justice Alito has Stern Words for Sheldon Whitehouse and His Attempt to Grab Control of the Supreme Court

 

Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito removed all doubt about how the US Supreme Court would respond to efforts by progressive politicians to dictate its internal workings. Alito said, “I know this is a controversial view, but I’m willing to say it, no provision in the Constitution gives them the authority to regulate the Supreme Court—period.”

 

Justice Alito says he voluntarily follows disclosure statutes that apply to lower-court judges and executive-branch officials; so do the other justices. But he notes that “Congress did not create the Supreme Court”—the Constitution did.

The court could also, like, regulate itself by applying more stringent ethics standards.  But it won’t. Which is a shame.

The truth behind the Left's fake accusations.

 

 

 

Democrats vs. the Supreme Court

They want to influence which Justices can hear certain cases, which would destroy judicial independence.

"While some of the hospitality, such as stays in personal homes, may not have required disclosure, Thomas appears to have violated the law by failing to disclose flights, yacht cruises and expensive sports tickets, according to ethics experts."

 

What are the names of said experts?

doing just fine😀  Thomas has sold his soul.  Not shocking that you can't see that.  Interesting that the poll on this thread, with 30% of responders thinking Thomas is not conflicted, matches the percentage of ultra MAGA's in the electorate.  Microcosm of American politics here.  It's like a mini sociology experiment.

He's in the tank.

There is absolutely no evidence of what you’re saying.
