Rep. Bill Pascrell: Corrupt Clarence Thomas Needs to Resign

A few months back, it was revealed that Ginni Thomas had been involved in Donald Trump’s attempts to overturn the 2020 election. The idea that the wife of a Supreme Court justice would be involved in such a plot was shocking. But Conservative media decided to completely ignore the situation and hope it went away.

The 1/6 hearings, though, immediately brought the spotlight back onto the spouse of the justice. And no Congressman Bill Pascrell is calling on Clarence Thomas to resign.

The New Jersey Democrat wrote in a press release, “Last night, we read yet more reports that the wife of the longest-serving justice on the Supreme Court was actively conspiring with Donald Trump and his allies to overturn the election and overthrow American democracy. And while she was doing all this, her husband, Justice Thomas, was hearing litigation related to the 2020 election at the High Court.”

Democratic Rep. Bill Pascrell is calling for Clarence Thomas to resign.

"Clarence and Ginni Thomas have participated in one of the worst breaches of trust ever seen in our court system. Clarence Thomas cannot possibly be seen as a neutral actor but instead as a corrupt jurist."

Pascrell continued:

“Public confidence in our nation’s highest court is at its lowest levels in generations. The American people rightly question whether rightwing jurists in our federal courts can adjudicate the law impartially. Over the last few years, we have become numb to bad acts by powerful actors, but Clarence and Ginni Thomas have participated in one of the worst breaches of trust ever seen in our court system. Clarence Thomas cannot possibly be seen as a neutral actor but instead as a corrupt jurist who has poisoned the High Court. Clarence Thomas should have dignity and final respect for our democracy and resign.”
