    Yep, now that we’re about at the end of investigating Fani Willis’s love life, is it not time to investigate all of Thomas’s “friendships”?

    Some prefer to use the polite Uncle Thomas.

    I thought about the Willis matter as well. There, the argument seems to be that the mere appearance of impropriety is alone sufficient to create a conflict of interest. Should it be different for judges or should that require establishing a specific, corrupt intent?

    That's a very good question. I know what I think. The rug was lifted and some feeble sweeping motions made with the recent adoption of the ethics code that has no means of enforcement. Sadly, I think not much more will be done.

    States rights but only when we agree with it.

    Do you think Clarence Thomas used his position to enrich himself?
    Do you believe his wife actively advocated for and supported Trumps call to fight like hell and provide fake electors?

    You can thank RBG for pushing the court farther right. Hung on so Trump could name 3 justices.

    Demcrats are their own worst enemy.

    She should have retired- no doubt. Also, no doubt McConnell should have followed established protocols.

    Love how you still manage to fabricate controversy out of a 9-0 decision.

    And Hillary should have campaigned her ass off with Bill helping, and then we never get Trump?

    Why is Obama remaing so quiet? Will he, should he, step up to drive voter turnout?
