House Democrats urge Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from Trump Colorado ballot case
The former president has asked the Supreme Court to overturn a ruling in Colorado that he is ineligible to appear on the state primary ballot because of his efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
A group of House Democrats on Thursday called on conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from a case involving former President Donald Trump's eligibility to appear on Colorado's Republican primary ballot.
Trump on Wednesday asked the Supreme Court to overturn a Colorado court ruling last month that disqualified him from appearing on the ballot over his conduct leading up to the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol. The former president’s appeal came after the state’s Republican Party filed its own appeal of the Colorado Supreme Court's decision. The state court put its ruling on hold to allow for appeals, meaning Trump could remain on the ballot pending U.S. Supreme Court action.
A group of House Democrats, led by Rep. Hank Johnson, of Georgia, the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee’s courts subcommittee, demanded that Thomas recuse himself from the case in a letter dated Thursday.
If you could offer enough money, you could probably get him to show up to hear cases dressed liked Judge Dredd.
That would be a bribe and Justice Clarence Thomas has proved time and time again that he's never accepted a bribe!
He'll accept a gift, though. If you buy him, like, 300 Judge Dredd costumes and a couple for his mom, then it would just be bad manners not to wear them, right?
maybe just a yacht would do it...
And I'm here to remind you
Of the mess you made when you killed Roe v Wade
It's not fair, don't deny it!
The bribes you bear you say they gave away
You- you... Yacht ta know!
