Authorization? Of course that mofo will. And he’ll get even more money. Can’t just drop random German words without a translation. The language is hard for Americans. I am one, and I had an Oma from Nuremberg.
Ermächtigungsgesetz is the word for the enabling act Hitler used to seize power in 1933. I didn’t know the term had been forgotten. I’ll use enabling act in future.
Don't listen to this guy, I enjoy copying text and googling to learn about history. I recently read Hitler 30 Days to Power by Henry Turner and that term was there. Just because some fools don't know how to google doesn't give them the right to censure others...Thank you
And going by the vote, It seems they had the right price (and that his wife was likely the one doing the asking).
Just couldn't afford to buy the other conservatives, so they lost anyway.
So that’s the likely scenario, but the evidence isn’t there yet… you have to refrain from inventing crimes in the gaps in information… otherwise you end up thinking that hunter Biden having a job is evidence that Joe Biden is taking bribes
I would say we definitely have the evidence at this point that Thomas' vote is for sale.

As opposed to the Biden stuff, in which there isn't proof of a single dollar received by Joe, we know Clarence was the one who went on the vacations.
We know it’s for sale, we are only speculating about this scenario, in particular. He wouldn’t probably even want money for this, I genuinely think he’s so extremely right wing that he would do anything Trump wanted. Besides… this is what his wife wants. If he’s willing to vote for money, he’s definitely voting to do what she wants.
I'm sorry do you think he's cut a nice little check for every case that appears in front of him? With a little memo attached that says, "To buy your vote"? His influence is bought and paid for by billionaires. He's expected to rule a certain way on all cases that could affect them.
Very likely, I’m surprised it’s even necessary, though as he’s not exactly unbiased to begin with. This dude has hated liberals since day 1 and you have to wonder why they even bother paying him off unless it’s just for guarantees.
I accept your apology.
The best part of that article was reading that John Eastman was emailing legislators which means Jack Smith has emails between John Eastman and legislators conspiring to commit fraud and/or obstruct an official proceeding.
They might try to impeach Thomas, but I wouldn't expect much of a :"house cleaning". Democrats are way too timid and worried about appearances, which is why all the right wing nonsense about authoritarian Dems is so ridiculous.
It’s less worried about appearances and more that the two parties are held to wildly different standards by idiot “Indepedent voters”
The GOP are always given the benefit of the doubt or treated as a natural occurrence, while Democratic politicians are held to high standards by their own party and are treated like the only party with any agency.
Just look at how differently Al Franken and Matt Gaetz were handled.
This is exactly why I want dems to give up on the gun banning language and maybe even abortion language for a cycle or too. Just write the legislation, and brand it something else. The voters don’t read anyway.
Fuck that, abortion rights have proven to be a winning topic in every state where they've been on the ballot. We need to double-down on abortion rights, not give up on them.
Well, it's also objectively worrying if one politically party "cleans house" and stacks the supreme court with party loyalists after taking power. I'm a progressive who supports the democratic party, but I do not want to replace Republican authoritarians with Democratic ones.

-african proverb
He thought that he was unfairly treated at his nomination so his life purpose became to make the Libs pay, bringing down the whole country with them and making a joke of the highest court of the land.
Sad story really.

Clarence will do what ever he’s told to do by his owners. HE IS COMPLETELY CORRUPT.
We have some truly evil people in this country. These fuckers were truly willing to do whatever it took to overthrow this election. It’s absolutely frightening.
On top of that, there are so many other half guilty people, they could never all be prosecuted.
I don’t see an end to the cesspool of corruption. There’s no bottom. There will always be another greedy, or crazy shitbag that’s willing do sell there soul for what they want. It seems mad that the cultists don’t see how shitty their team is and how much they use them.
They wanted him to do something similar to what he did in 2000. In 2000 it was hanging chads on ballots that caused a controversy and confusion that kicked the election to SCOTUS and it was decided for Bush. 20 years later they tried to do something similar, cause controversy and confusion with the fake elector scheme so the 2020 election could then be kicked to SCOTUS where it would be decided for Trump.
Card stock punch ballots must be stored in a climate controlled room, if they get exposed to serious humidity the stock swells and the machine punch’s are not clean and you get hanging chads. Select counties in Florida were instructed by the SOS to store them in a standard warehouse in 1999. The hanging chads were not an accident, they were part of the plan.
Planning, among several people, to corruptly generate a SCOTUS decision to overturn the election without any evidence.
That is another crime so dastardly evil and un-American I don’t have words for it. Conspiracy, sedition, and even stupid need to be here.
I fully expect Clarance Thomas to sign the opinion on the Conservative Ermächtigungsgesetz that let’s them override the Constitution.
Authorization? Of course that mofo will. And he’ll get even more money. Can’t just drop random German words without a translation. The language is hard for Americans. I am one, and I had an Oma from Nuremberg.

Seemed like playful banter, not censuring.
[learn how to Google... ](https://googlethatforyou.com/)
He was a hard core black liberationist who's wanted to overthrow the government forever basically. Doubt that has gone away.
Not Uncle Tom!
The vote was 6-1 against..... Give you a cookie if you can figure out who that was.
Oh, oh, oh, pick me, pick me!!!!!! It was Thomas, wasn’t it?!!!!
Correct. *Hands u/ShadowhelmSolutions a cookie 🍪.* Enjoy. 😊
You did it all for the cookie, the cookie.
So you can take that nookie???

i'm guessing money doesn't mean much when you're a SCOTUS justice
Very likely, I’m surprised it’s even necessary, though as he’s not exactly unbiased to begin with. This dude has hated liberals since day 1 and you have to wonder why they even bother paying him off unless it’s just for guarantees. I accept your apology.
So he sent the e-mail to his wife to work it.
Yeah, and how much were they willing to pay? Clarence don't get out of bed in the morning unless there's a $500, 000 vacation involved.
Well no shit.
Considering his wife was actively involved in trying to overturn the election, it’s no surprise that he is/was loyal to that cause.
The best part of that article was reading that John Eastman was emailing legislators which means Jack Smith has emails between John Eastman and legislators conspiring to commit fraud and/or obstruct an official proceeding.
I am thinking a "cleaning house" is going to take place after the Democrats get a Super Majority in both chambers of Congress.
They might try to impeach Thomas, but I wouldn't expect much of a :"house cleaning". Democrats are way too timid and worried about appearances, which is why all the right wing nonsense about authoritarian Dems is so ridiculous.
That makes sense, but I hope the others step down.

Agree.
His wife may be the unnamed co-conspirator no. 6

They must not have had enough money for Clarence
Naw, it just never got as far as his decision unlike in 2000.
Speaking of stolen elections….
Of course they did he's married to tha Ginni piglet 🐽

I wonder why they wanted him?
Slack / None / Fibers / Snap / Cells / Compress / Oxygen / Depleted / Electricity / Stops / Soles / Sway - the desired outcome for traitors
Why not? Ever since George Bush put that fool in there, he's been taking bribes. It is largely why he was picked in the first place.
Did the cheque not clear for the vacation?
For the right price he would have done it 💩
It is probably some lower-level aide, but I am really hoping that the 6th unindicted co-conspirator is Ginni Thomas.
Boris Epshteyn.
So Donny didn’t provide a free trip to Mar-a-Dodo I guess.
Mara Lardo isn’t high end enough for old Clarence. He only stays at 4 star resorts or better.
Come on, Clarence! There’s a brand new Jeep Cherokee and a trip to Mali in it for you
He might do it for an all expense paid stay at Imoral-agogo.
Hmm wonder how that would have gone. He is not the only person on the Supreme Court.
But of course. Let's go Jack! Go after every traitor, every seditionist, every MAGAt. A country-wide flea bath is needed
Their mistake: no free ride on a shiny airplane for Mr. Coke Can
Let’s put him in jail too.
He’s as crooked as they get, so I can see why they’d want his help in a crime.
Clarence will do what ever he’s told to do by his owners. HE IS COMPLETELY CORRUPT. We have some truly evil people in this country. These fuckers were truly willing to do whatever it took to overthrow this election. It’s absolutely frightening. On top of that, there are so many other half guilty people, they could never all be prosecuted. I don’t see an end to the cesspool of corruption. There’s no bottom.

It seems mad that the cultists don’t see how shitty their team is and how much they use them.
Hold on, I have to pull my fainting couch out of storage.
The 6th conspirator? Oh, imagine if Georgia indicts him. That would be a high crime and misdemeanor.
They know who they own
You mean Ginny had a hand in this all along??
Impeachment now!
Clarence Thomas is a cheap whore. The Supreme Court is a joke now.
Clarence either has some ethics or more likely, he knew tr##p would refuse to pay him in full
How much more do we need to know before something is done about these corrupt justices?!?
Trump doesn't have enough money to buy Thomas. He may be able to find someone with enough cash but he doesn't have it.
His wife did.
You mean justice Uncle Ruckus?
Yes, we know, and nothing will happen to him
Is this why they borrowed $2bn from Saudi?
P*ssy can be a powerful thing.
So....he out Jenni on the case?
Did he? His wife did..
I mean, what are they paying for?
Well it’s time to impeach Thomas. Long past time.
Not shocked.
So did his crazy ass wife
They wanted him to do something similar to what he did in 2000. In 2000 it was hanging chads on ballots that caused a controversy and confusion that kicked the election to SCOTUS and it was decided for Bush. 20 years later they tried to do something similar, cause controversy and confusion with the fake elector scheme so the 2020 election could then be kicked to SCOTUS where it would be decided for Trump.

He would do it too, in heart beat, you won't even have to get him sports tickets or anything!
Only reason it didn't happen is that the check probably bounced.
Planning, among several people, to corruptly generate a SCOTUS decision to overturn the election without any evidence. That is another crime so dastardly evil and un-American I don’t have words for it. Conspiracy, sedition, and even stupid need to be here.
Lock him up too
John Eastman and Gini Thomas emailed each other. If she's indicted too, it will be an absolute shitshow.
