    Default Clarence Thomas is one of the 'most corrupt justices in American history,'

    Well it would have been great for Faux propaganda network to not lay all the focus of a corrupt repuke SCOTUS influence on Thomas, considering tRump and his seditious repuke insurgency lawlessly hacked two repukes in there who are not qualified to be on SCOTUS for numerous felonious reasons why. This in order to carry out tRump and his repuke mob war efforts against Democracy, society and humanity. The other repuke and Thomas were already there as a terrible problem before tRump and his gutter mob were lawlessly hacked in 2017:

    The Nation justice correspondent Elie Mystal insisted on MSNBC's The Cross Connection with Tiffany Cross on Saturday that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is one of the "most corrupt justices in American history."

    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    Even a horribly biased, radical Leftist site like Think Progress can only get Thomas to fifth place...

    https://archive.thinkprogress.org/th...-f725000b59e8/

    More reasoned sites, like Find Law, don't even mention Thomas.

    https://www.findlaw.com/legalblogs/s...s-of-all-time/

    Even this Leftist writing for the Huffington Post can't manage to put Thomas in that position:

    https://www.huffpost.com/entry/three...ourt_b_9261632

    I would say that Thomas isn't a very good justice. He seems to be a mediocre legal mind (as if that's saying much about anyone), and generally has been an ineffective and sort of 'also present' justice in his time on the bench.

    That Findlaw article is from 2014 -- long before Thomas failed to recuse himself from insurrection-related matters that his wife was involved in.

    It is a strawman. You cherry picked one item out of my post and then turned it into an argument I wasn't making about Jan 6. My argument was that Thomas is not one of "the most corrupt" Justices in history as gemini claims. That argument doesn't have a date stamp on it but rather covers Thomas' whole career as a Justice.

    You made a strawman reply.



    Gemini's position: Thomas is one of the most corrupt Justices in history

    My rebuttal: No, he's not, here's three proofs of that (Note, just for the record, I don't consider Thomas a very good Justice in any case)

    You jump in: One of your sources is dated to 2014 and has nothing to do with Thomas' actions with regard to Jan 6. Therefore, your argument is invalid.

    You cherry picked, then mischaracterized my rebuttal, then injected a complete non sequitur as a reason I'm wrong. Classic strawman.

    Who, exactly, do you think previously made that point about the Findlaw article being from 2014? If this is an echo-chamber thing, surely you can point to who, exactly, I'm echoing.

    you seem annoyed that I point out how you are like the borg - whatever Democrats believe, You do to. amazing coincidence - not. you are a partisan douche

    Few legal scholars would side with your recusal claims - this is a DNC platform - not a legal one with any real legal basis behind it
