Judiciary chair calls on Justice Thomas to recuse himself from Jan. 6 cases
By Jordain Carney - 03/28/22 04:10 PM EDT

Sen. Dick Durbin (Ill.), the No. 2 Senate Democrat and chairman of the Judiciary Committee, said on Monday that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas should recuse himself from cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol attack. 

Durbin's comments come in the wake of reports from late last week that Ginni Thomas, Clarence Thomas's wife, urged then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to move aggressively to overturn the 2020 election. Ginni Thomas also disclosed in a recent interview that she took part in the "Stop the Steal" rally that preceded the riot.

Durbin said Ginni Thomas's involvement "really creates an obvious conflict" for her husband on Jan. 6-related cases.

"For the good of the court I think he should recuse himself from those cases," Durbin added.

Gee ... let's see, the GOP has Dizzy Ms. Lizzy and King Adam, and now Justice Thomas being asked to recuse himself.  Nothing like a fair hearing! *****rollingeyes*****
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.

Well then, let's look at everyone's private Emails along with their spouses on both the committee and the rest of the bench so we can properly determine who should recuse themselves or not...
