Ginni Thomas appears before Jan 6 Committee

On Thursday, Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court justice
Clarence Thomas, appeared before the January 6 Committee to
testify about her role in the attempt to overturn the 2020
election.


Ginni sent 29 text messages that we know about, and possibly
more, to Trump's Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in the weeks after
the election encouraging him to subvert the will of the people.
She was also in communication with Trump lawyer John Eastman, who
wrote the infamous memo which argued that the Constitution’s 12th
Amendment gave then Vice President, Mike Pence, the discretion to
decide which states’ electoral votes should be counted.


Ginni's husband later refused to recuse himself when SCOTUS was
asked to rule on whether Trump and his cronies had to release
documents to January 6 Committee investigators. When SCOTUS
published its ruling, it showed Clarence supported Trump's
request to suppress the documents — and, significantly, was the
sole dissenting voice. 


In this episode of the Elections Crimes Bulletin, Bernstein and
Palast discuss this conflict of interest and the potential legal
ramifications.
