What a mess this is. There is no conscience as to the well being of all Americans. It is a problem.

Illinois Sen. Dick Durbin, (click here) the chair of the Senate Judiciary committee, called for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from weighing in on whether former President Donald Trump can be removed from states’ 2024 ballots for his role in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol.

The nation’s highest court is expected to hear arguments on Thursday in the case, which centers on the Colorado Supreme Court’s decision to remove the GOP frontrunner from their state’s primary ballot. The state court ruled Trump ineligible based on the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution’s insurrection clause, a Civil War-era provision that bars those who took an oath of office as a U.S. official from federal office for participating in a rebellion or insurrection.

Durbin argued the involvement of Thomas’ wife, conservative activist Ginni Thomas, in the effort to overturn Trump’s 2020 presidential election loss creates a conflict of interest for the justice....

Ginni Thomas, (click here) the wife of a Supreme Court justice, was directly involved in efforts to overturn the 2020 election. 

How on Earth has Clarence Thomas not been required to recuse himself from all cases involving Trump's attempted coup? At the very least. I mean c'mon....

It's easy to get caught up (click here) on the news that the spouse of a sitting Supreme Court justice went full QAnon regarding the 2020 election, parroting conspiratorial delusions around how "the Biden crime family" would be "living in barges off GITMO to face a military tribunal" for the grievous crime of getting more votes than "This Great President." (Scattergun capitalization appears to be a hallmark of the politically unhinged.) Granted, Thomas seemed to legitimately believe Trump really won, likely because she boiled her own brain in a vat of right-wing Internet. But within its sterling writeup of Ginni Thomas's communications with then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows—as Donald Trump's coterie attempted to overturn the results of an election he lost so that he could stay in power in contravention of the will of the American public—the Washington Post flagged an important detail....

Trump spoke publicly during this period about his intent to contest the election results in the Supreme Court. “This is a major fraud on our nation,” the president said in a speech at 2:30 the morning after the election. “We want the law to be used in a proper manner. So we’ll be going to the U.S. Supreme Court.”...

It is all so cozy, isn't it? Like a family sort of. No. Not family, a religious conspiracy against a democracy that allows freedom is more the picture.

Do I think there is something corrupt and dangerous about this court? 

You betcha I do.

Beginning in the early 1980s, (click here) when it was not exactly cool to be a conservative law student, a small group of students started a club, named in honor of The Federalist Papers, where they could safely discuss their right-of-center views. Fast-forward 40 years and six of the nine sitting Supreme Court Justices are current or former members of that club....

Huh?

Never in my wildest imagination did I expect a Chief Justice confused about the Rule of Law. This is a no brainer. Robert’s doesn’t understand the words of the 14th Amendment? The courts after the civil war never had a problem understanding the English language of that Constitutional Amendment. Trump is guilty as sin through his own actions and words.

John Roberts is bringing shame to his court. According to him every state will bring lawsuits that remove a candidate from office on the grounds of insurrection. For real now? It is all nonsense. 

Colorado is correct and other states that allow Trump a place to be president are corrupted. This is just plain wrong!
