Clarence And Virginia Thomas Have An Impressively Corrupt Activist Judge Scheme Going

[struth]

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and his wife, far-right activist Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, have quite the scheme going. She takes in dark money contributions to her Tea Party-connected nonprofit, Liberty Central, and organizes Republicans on exactly the kind of issues that often reach the Supreme Court. He sits on the Supreme Court and never recuses himself as justices are called on by federal law to do in certain situations, including ones where their spouses have financial interests.

And this is going on while Justice Stephen Breyer is solemnly warning that expanding the Supreme Court might be a problem because “Structural alteration motivated by the perception of political influence can only feed” the perception that the court is guided by politics, “further eroding that trust.” As if that ship had not long since sailed.

This current court is corrupt beyond all recognition. The Republicans in Congress have destroyed any precept that the court is independent, unbiased, or in any way represents the people or the very laws by which they are tasked to interpret. The Democrats have an absolute mandate to repair the damage done to the federal judiciary by a minority that has appointed it in a mistaken and corrupt sense of entitlement, the majority of the country disagrees with, and the Constitution does not recognize.

What Federal Law? Can you please provide the code section.

I know Dems don't like the idea of a wife being off the plantation, but she's free to have a job, and support whatever causes she wants.

He isn't required to recuse himself because his wife is involved in politics. That would mean he could never participate in any ruling whatsoever.

The rule is to recuse from cases that they, or an immediate family member is involved in the case.

And cases from Liberty Central have come before the court.

Liberty Central did not benefit financially from the case it brought before the court. It sued strictly for the public interest in the law the case was about. It's not whether a family member is involved in the case. It's whether a family member will be harmed or benefitted by the case.

And Trump believed Putin when he said he didn't interfere in the 2016 elections.
And Trump believed the Prince when he said he had nothing to do with the reporters execution and dismemberment.
Trump believed Kim Jong Un.

Notice a pattern of believing tyrants over the intelligence community.

You haven't got a clue as to what Trump believes, you fucking moron.

I'm going by what Trump said, what Trump tweeted, and by what Trump did.

If you don't think Trump agreed with these tyrants over the intelligence community you're an absolute moron.

Please post an example.

If Putin said "the sky is blue," and Trump said "yes it is," you would attack him for agreeing with Putin.

Only irrational morons believe that the trans issue is a "dog whistle." They simply have no logical argument to support their wacko agenda, so they resort to pure ad hominems. Allowing transgenders to compete in women's sports is a gross attack on women's rights.

The idea that transgender women will attack little girls in the bathroom, any more than cisgender men doing the same.

Why would anyone want a male taking a piss next to his wife or daughter? The very idea is sick and ridiculous.

Then how about paying female players even half what male players make?

If their sport attracts (much less than)half the audience, (much less than)half the advertising dollars, how much should they make?

The empiracle data show you to be wrong. A person acquires a permanent physical advantage over femails if they grow up as a male

Wrong. There's more data of permanent coronavirus immunity, than of physical advantage. Oddly transgender women suffer from osteoporosis as if they were born female.

With the russians interfering you had surprise republican wins.

But when the russians stopped in 2020, the result was a democratic landslide.

The Russians have always interfered, you fucking moron. The interfered in 2020 as well.

The cyber security secretary of DHS certified that Russia DID NOT interfere in the 2020 election.

Why do you always ignore facts. Even the one's told by democrats and republicans alike.

Putting the most qualified judges they could find into the federal courts.

What happened with the "wise Latina"?

was born in Bronx, New York, on June 25, 1954. She earned a B.A. in 1976 from Princeton University, graduating summa cum laude and receiving the university’s highest academic honor. In 1979, she earned a J.D. from Yale Law School where she served as an editor of the Yale Law Journal. She served as Assistant District Attorney in the New York County District Attorney’s Office from 1979–1984. She then litigated international commercial matters in New York City at Pavia & Harcourt, where she served as an associate and then partner from 1984–1992. In 1991, President George H.W. Bush nominated her to the U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, and she served in that role from 1992–1998. She served as a judge on the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from 1998–2009. President Barack Obama nominated her as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court on May 26, 2009, and she assumed this role August 8, 2009.

Still, in over 10 years on the Second Circuit, she has not issued any important decisions or made a name for herself as a legal scholar or particularly respected jurist. In picking a case to highlight during his introduction of the nominee, President Obama had to go back to her days as a trial judge and a technical ruling that ended the 1994–95 baseball strike.

Moreover, Sotomayor has a mixed reputation among lawyers who have practiced before her, some questioning her abilities as a judicial craftsman, others her erratic temperament, according to a piece by Jeffrey Rosen in The New Republic, which itself has come in for criticism.

Such anecdotal criticism is to be taken with a grain of salt — while Justice Antonin Scalia’s bench‐side manner is more vinegar than honey, even his detractors recognize his brilliance — but it does need to be investigated. So, too, do certain statements she made in presentations at Berkeley and Duke, respectively, the former arguing that a Latina necessarily sees the law differently than a white man, the latter suggesting that, at least to some degree, judges make rather than interpret law.

A Democrat? Tell me why I'm not impressed by that? Propaganda is not facts.

You skipped over your own words: the case it brought before the court.

It doesn't matter what benefit winning the case has, the fact a spouse brought the matter to the court is grounds for recusal.

You are correct. That ship has long left the dock. The SC has been nothing more than a battering ram for conservatives to force their ideology down the throats of every citizen in the country. All in the guise of "The Constitution". Whatever. Republicans and conservatives have been using the courts and legislation in this fashion for years. The SC IS political.

Wrong. There's more data of permanent coronavirus immunity, than of physical advantage. Oddly transgender women suffer from osteoporosis as if they were born female.

What does COVID have to do with this? I'm talking about the physical advantage in strength and endurance that males have over females.

Oddly, transgenders have been wiping women of the map in sports competition.

Is it possible for you to discuss this issue without constantly posting distractions and non sequiturs?

He was asked that with putin standing right next to him. Do you honestly expect a president to answer a question like that? Has the press ever asked such questions of a Democrat president?

We both no the answer to that and we both know why they don't.

Furthermore, the intelligence agencies all colluded to stage a coup against Trump. Why should he believe anything they say? Half of the senior managment in Biden's FBI should be in prison.

Furthermore, we're talking about the advantage transgenders have over women in sports.
