    I have ZERO confidence in the obviously corrupt SCOTUS.

    The McConnell/Trump court appointees need a very close review. Perjury during hearings should be an automatic removal from the bench–any bench.

    But wait, there’s more! Clarence Thomas just hired a law clerk who seems to have sent racist text messages to a fellow employee.

    From https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/02/24/crystal-clanton-clarence-thomas-supreme-court-clerk-texts/

    “In 2015, when Clanton was 20 and working for a conservative group allied with the justice’s wife, Ginni Thomas, Clanton apparently sent racist texts to a fellow employee. “I HATE BLACK PEOPLE,” one text read. “Like f— them all … I hate blacks. End of story.” (In Clanton’s text, the expletive was spelled out.)”
