His wife has been a source of conflict of interest for a long time. I find it disturbing that this is really the first time Clarence's unfitness to be a supreme court justice has been properly brought up on mainstream media. I hope this issue doesn't disappear.
His fitness for the court has been covered by the media several times, notably when he was appointed by Bush I. The Judiciary Committee forwarded his name to the Senate without a recommendation for approval and he received a 48% no vote, shocking at the time, based on his fitness for the bench.

It is sick to think that scotus Thomas didn't recuse himself. That should be grounds to be disbarred as a judge! Supreme or unsupreme! He has proven that he has disgraced the position. He needs to step down.
Justice Thomas, If he was a real judge with ethics he would recuse himself from decisions.l Let’s remember that he was appointed despite credible evidence of sexual harassment of a staff member.
Remember the words, "Happy Wife, happy life." Of course she has influence of her Judge husband. Time for Justice Thomas to be removed, he is as corrupt as she is stupid.
That's too bad. I'm troubled. You're troubled. Let's hold hands and sing kumbaya while we all feel troubled. Nothing will happen to Thomas, ever. Rebubs are above the law. Next.

The type to throw a hissy fit if she she got pulled up for landing a quarter of a million bucks ( that we know about ) in her purse for supporting white supremacist terrorists and insurrectionists.

@@hoodootheclown929 hmm no dude. The Biden administration tried handing stimulus out by race. Denying stimulus to white males. Everything democrats screamed about Trump, Biden is actually doing. Nothing says racist like race based stimulus
We all know that the republikkkans planned to stop Obama from putting not only a supreme court judge on the bench, but hundreds of federal judges as well. Of course the judicial system is broken. Just look at all the cops that are given slaps on the wrist for sexual misconduct and excessive force.
Gini's husband is probably afraid of his wife. She may clap him if he goes against her feelings and opinions. Sad, very sad that Clarence may be a puppet to Gini at home
I doubt it. She should be afraid of him. Remember the creepy allegations against Clarence brought by his Secretary? Biden apologized to the secretary about the hearing/questioning held when Clarence had been nominated for the SC. They were rude to her. Clarence is low grade, imo.
Clarence Thomas shouldn't have gotten approved for the Supreme Court in the first place, I'm a boomer and I remember Anita Hill. This statement is a personal opinion and nothing more.
The New Yorker magazine had a very long article found on line about Mrs Clarence Thomas. She seems to have a hand in many far far extreme right groups. She is close to Ali Alexander & Paul Gosar, John Eastman & had Trump's ear. A total fascist.
The SCJ's should be held to the same or even a higher code of ethics than the lower courts, they are the Supreme Court after all and should have Supreme Ethics. We need to start over with 9 (or some number) new justices and have in place term limits.
I lost confidence in Clarence when he ruled in favor of Monsanto's floating GMO pollen on other farmers crops making those farmers liable , and could be sued by Monsanto . Unless you destroy saved seed , buy Monsanto's seed and products or face litigation.
@@MrChannel19 I don’t know what he was like before that, but after she told the world about his nasty ways, he became the angriest man on the bench. Now he has Kavanaugh to whine with. Anita Hill should have been the judge, not him. Yuck.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any dirtier and more corrupt in US politics and law, this comes along. How could there NOT be a rule or law in place addressing this behaviour smh!
If I saw this happening in another country I would think it was a banana republic. Thomas should recuse himself of any matter before the court in which his wife has involvement.
@@jackboot3946 it means that the US might not put itself back in the 1900's on womens rights and not allow a minority to force its opinion on the majority.

Now if the Dems could stop the hand wringing and grow some teeth instead of this playing to the court of public opinion we might actually pull out of this tailspin.
The reason there aren’t term limits is because it’s supposed to incentivize judges to disregard politics since they don’t need to worry about getting re-elected. Clearly it isn’t working however I must admit I still don’t know if removing term limits would make things better. Judges would definitely start inflicting politics into all their decisions to ensure they get elected again
When he was appointed in 1991 I was totally against him and time has done nothing to cause me to change my mind about him. He was sleazy then and he is sleazy now.
SHE WAS A DRUNK, WHO LONG AFTER THE FACT CALLED ANITA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, TELLING HER SHE OWED HER HUSBAND AN APLOGY!! SHE COUD NOT STAND IT, BECAUSE CLARENCE WANTED TO F**K A BLACK WOMAN, SHE KNEW HE WAS LYING!!

I AM SO HAPPY ANITA SURVIVED, TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT IT!! NOW DAYS, WOMEN SUE OVER A PAT ON THE BACK, THIS FROM A SURVIVOR!!
You know if there's ever a reason to remove somebody from the supreme Court bench this is it. The Coke can didn't get him but the ethics violations will. And it proves he's not worthy of wearing the black robes or swinging the gavel. And if they can't remove them then they need to take it to 13 on the bench.
Good example of why free speech needs limits. The Qanon virus needs be stamped out. Ms. Thomas needs a shrink. Clarence needs to step down. He is a disgrace to the court.
Judges' "activism" is basically a rightwing buzzword referring to judges and decisions they disagree with. What we are talking about here is the appearance of corruption, which is why judicial ethics are there-- rules put in place to avoid even the appearance of corruption.
If only there was something in The Constitution (like the 14th Amendment, Sec 3) that could deal with people who "aid & comfort insurrectionists" who are now "unqualified to hold public office". OH, that's right, we do & should use it! ASAP!
Finally. A loud public discussion of this couple is LONG overdue. Please keep it up.
Ginni Thomas should 'cease and desist' or Clarence Thomas should resign. He should not be a Supreme Court Justice. Too many conflicts of interest.
I'd suggest more than just "resignation" from Clarence Thomas. Impeachment, and then disbarment.

@@seanhovan7426The propaganda is strong with you.
@@hoodootheclown929 hmm no dude. The Biden administration tried handing stimulus out by race. Denying stimulus to white males. Everything democrats screamed about Trump, Biden is actually doing.
Nothing says racist like race based stimulus
@@seanhovan7426 Only fox news is spewing that lie you delusional little sheep. Watch/read actual news so you're not filling your head with B.S..
@@seanhovan7426 Wow, you should seek help.
My trust in SCOTUS has completely tanked. I know I'm not alone. What a stunning display of immorality. Sorry RBG!
We all know that the republikkkans planned to stop Obama from putting not only a supreme court judge on the bench, but hundreds of federal judges as well.
Of course the judicial system is broken. Just look at all the cops that are given slaps on the wrist for sexual misconduct and excessive force.
Total hit piece, well done team, should go down well in ‘22 . See you y’a there with thé public réaction.
Justice Roberts should absolutely ask for Thomas to resign. I have lost all faith the Supreme Court!
Omg wow. No way. I am from Ireland we fought all this. Americis needs to rise up for their own democracy
He's probably just a tad scared of what his little wifey might do if he makes her mad by stepping down, removing her best chance at high society.
Yup. Typical bully wife and he looks miserable with her and scared. She is the Supreme Court Justice by proxy.
As a Black man, I'm sure I can say most of us ain't claiming Clarence Uncle Thomas.
Thank you. Please spread this in your community, vote vote vote.
This help confirm what a lot of black people already thought about him.
Sick and tired of these bootlickers
You got that right!
😁
Supreme Court Justice, it is time to hold Justice Thomas accountable.
It’s way past time for Thomas to be off the court!
Are we forgetting this man's confirmation hearings? Who thought he would be ethical?
I watched, he played the race card, and guess who let him off, Joe Biden as chairman of the judiciary committee in 1991
I haven't forgotten and I am still incensed that he is a member of the SCOTUS.
judging is about deciding the truth of the law, HE can't even Tell THE TRUTH
@@terryvarta9306 that wasn't the extent of his problematic conduct. That was the least of his problems.
Listened to the whole hearing, lasted for days. Biden was front and center then. This is where this decision brought the US.
This is the most corrupt SCOTUS.
Gini's husband is probably afraid of his wife. She may clap him if he goes against her feelings and opinions. Sad, very sad that Clarence may be a puppet to Gini at home
I doubt it. She should be afraid of him. Remember the creepy allegations against Clarence brought by his Secretary? Biden apologized to the secretary about the hearing/questioning held when Clarence had been nominated for the SC. They were rude to her. Clarence is low grade, imo.
Ha, a black man needing validation, divorces his black wife and marries well, that dumpster fire.
@@katem.8816 If you are speaking of Anita Hill she was NOT his "secretary". She was an attorney that worked under him.
I mean, I understand. Did you see those Glamour Shots? Id do her bidding too...
Definitely.
I’m beginning to believe Anita Hill’s side of the story more and more.
Clarence Thomas shouldn't have gotten approved for the Supreme Court in the first place, I'm a boomer and I remember Anita Hill. This statement is a personal opinion and nothing more.
The New Yorker magazine had a very long article found on line about Mrs Clarence Thomas.
She seems to have a hand in many far far extreme right groups. She is close to Ali Alexander & Paul Gosar, John Eastman & had Trump's ear.
A total fascist.
I would love to read it but the NYer doesn't let you in unless you have a subscription.
@@pennydoyle5151 Try your library.
The SCJ's should be held to the same or even a higher code of ethics than the lower courts, they are the Supreme Court after all and should have Supreme Ethics. We need to start over with 9 (or some number) new justices and have in place term limits.
I agree.
Lynn, I like this idea.
Clarence Thomas and his wife Ginni are the evil ones. They both have a lot of guilt, and this is what it leads to.
I lost confidence in Clarence when he ruled in favor of Monsanto's floating GMO pollen on other farmers crops making those farmers liable , and could be sued by Monsanto . Unless you destroy saved seed , buy Monsanto's seed and products or face litigation.
Everything he has done has been a Conflict of Interest. Time for him to go!!
Clarence had proven over and over he’s without any kind of ethics and seems to hate the fact he’s black.
Is this her issue of payback for the Anita Hill accusations?
@@MrChannel19 I don’t know what he was like before that, but after she told the world about his nasty ways, he became the angriest man on the bench. Now he has Kavanaugh to whine with. Anita Hill should have been the judge, not him. Yuck.
Thomas is creepy, and now we know why, his boss is a freak.
The Soros idiocy is ironic coming from Ginni (dark money) Thomas.
I just finished reading Mayer's excellent essay!
It’s time for him to step down.
The Republicans are always projecting. They are quick to pick over the tiniest amount of corruption but of course they are often neck deep in manure.
Have any of you Dems ever been influenced by George Soros or read one thing of his ???
@@lindawilliams2211 nope! It is why we laugh.
Just when you thought things couldn't get any dirtier and more corrupt in US politics and law, this comes along. How could there NOT be a rule or law in place addressing this behaviour smh!
Why isn't John Roberts and the Congress not speaking out about the disregard for the rules of law?
It’s called blatant corruption
Justice Robert is the guilty one here for not looking after the transparency of his team !!!
Pigs have many uses. Apparently nobody told Justice Thomas that laying with them isn't one of them.
I am sure pigs everywhere are insulted by being associated with that nasty old had.
@@therealheisenberg6182 Fair point.
I always knew Thomas was a mean and miserable SOB! Now we know why.
If I saw this happening in another country I would think it was a banana republic. Thomas should recuse himself of any matter before the court in which his wife has involvement.
This madness of hypocrisy is a sign of the end of our democracy
Definitely so SMH
This judge is showing poor judgment or laboring under the iron thumb of his spouse???
He should recuse himself if he doesn't resign!!!
Andrew, Thomas's wife looks like a Karen, and I bet she is. Complete power over the black man seems to be her goal.
This is why the high court needs to be expanded
You are right. Changes need to be made.
The more Justices on the SC, the better the chances of fairer, more balanced decisions.
@@jackboot3946 it means that the US might not put itself back in the 1900's on womens rights and not allow a minority to force its opinion on the majority.
@@imisstoronto3121 Too late I'm afraid. It's already done that.
How are people not completely appalled by this absolute conflict of interest instead of just saying, oh well, that's just the way it is. Unbelievable!!!!
It was maddening to learn that the SC doesn't have a binding code of ethics which can be enforced.
Imagine the whaling and screaming from the GOP if the roles were reversed.
I'd imagine it'd look much like this comment section.
They dig for dirt then create insane conspiracy theories while constantly pointing the finger at the left for the very things they are doing in real time. This kind of crazy could make you crazy if your mind isn't strong. Dems need to hold steady as they move forward through this storm of chaos and violence from the right.
@@lindadbse1919 The best way to confront a liar is to call them a liar to there face and keep doing it. Don't let up and STOP giving them a platform ! Now if the Dems could stop the hand wringing and grow some teeth instead of this playing to the court of public opinion we might actually pull out of this tailspin.
I wouldn't be surprised if the GOP did some whaling, or even dolphin spearing for that matter.
@@kelliott7864 Yep busted. Hooked on spell checker is I. ;-)
Having judges that cannot be fired is part of the foundation of an autocracy. Great journalistic work.
They can be impeached by the House and removed from SCOTUS upon conviction by the Senate.
Another person who hasn’t read the constitution…
Term limits for the Supreme court Justices! To keep another Clarence Thomas from holding this powerful position for life!
We need term limits for all levels of judges and politicians.
All government offices should have term limits
@@therealheisenberg6182 Exactly Duane!
The reason there aren’t term limits is because it’s supposed to incentivize judges to disregard politics since they don’t need to worry about getting re-elected. Clearly it isn’t working however I must admit I still don’t know if removing term limits would make things better. Judges would definitely start inflicting politics into all their decisions to ensure they get elected again
@@WayneMercy Like u said it’s not working.
This judge needs to be removed from the justice department immediately.
When he was appointed in 1991 I was totally against him and time has done nothing to cause me to change my mind about him. He was sleazy then and he is sleazy now.
I wonder why Clarence voted for Trump on 1/6? Can we have a reason from Clarence, well done Bush!
Clarence Thomas wife was and is front and center. He should retire. Yikes. She's financing them. Yikes.
SHE WAS A DRUNK, WHO LONG AFTER THE FACT CALLED ANITA IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, TELLING HER SHE OWED HER HUSBAND AN APLOGY!! SHE COUD NOT STAND IT, BECAUSE CLARENCE WANTED TO F**K A BLACK WOMAN, SHE KNEW HE WAS LYING!! I WATCHED THE WHOLE THING ON TV, THOSE ANGRY OLD WHITE GUYS, WHO THOUGHT THE LITTLE WOMAN SHOULD BE CHAINED TO THEIR STOVES, SENATORS, BRUTALLY TORE ANITA APART!! I AM SO HAPPY ANITA SURVIVED, TO SPEAK OUT ABOUT IT!! NOW DAYS, WOMEN SUE OVER A PAT ON THE BACK, THIS FROM A SURVIVOR!!
She makes the judicial decisions, he looks miserable and I bet he's scared to death of her.
THOMAS HAD ABSOLUTELY NO BUSINESS BEING A JUSTICE CONSIDERING HIS PAST BEHAVIOR {ANITA HILL}
You know if there's ever a reason to remove somebody from the supreme Court bench this is it. The Coke can didn't get him but the ethics violations will. And it proves he's not worthy of wearing the black robes or swinging the gavel. And if they can't remove them then they need to take it to 13 on the bench.
How can the ethical standards for federal judges not also apply to the SC? INSANITY.
Good example of why free speech needs limits.
The Qanon virus needs be stamped out.
Ms. Thomas needs a shrink.
Clarence needs to step down.
He is a disgrace to the court.
Judges activism is quite astounding, without care to morals.
A number of instances, of a number of judges.
Judges' "activism" is basically a rightwing buzzword referring to judges and decisions they disagree with. What we are talking about here is the appearance of corruption, which is why judicial ethics are there-- rules put in place to avoid even the appearance of corruption.
i hope this gets a lot more press coverage.
Only on CNN and MSNBC. Too bad nobody watches them. I just come for comedy.
Term limits and some better defined rules for justices' spouses and family members. Only in the US is such egregious behavior overlooked. Shameful
Unfreaking believable. He shouldn’t even be on the court in my opinion. I watched all the Anita hill hearings. I’m with her.
YIKES...!!!
DESPICABLE THOMAS
SCOTUS cannot have this stench surrounding our most important of institutions.
Thomas must resign or be impeached.
Thank you for exposing evil to the light sir! We need to see this truth
Thomas is bought and paid for..She probably makes his rulings for him..He is pathetic and needs to resign..one of the worst justice ever..
If only there was something in The Constitution (like the 14th Amendment, Sec 3) that could deal with people who "aid & comfort insurrectionists" who are now "unqualified to hold public office".
OH, that's right, we do & should use it! ASAP!
Thanks for doing in depth, quality reporting.
