(TheLastPatriotNews.com) – Before the hearings being held by the United States House of Representatives Select Committee investigating the January 6, 2021 protest at the United States Capitol have concluded, and without providing any evidence of his own, Congressman Bill Pascrell, a New Jersey Democrat, has declared United States Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas is “corrupt” and called for his resignation.
Why?
Because Thomas’s wife, Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, sent emails and text messages supporting former President Donald J. Trump’s belief that the 2020 Presidential Election was stolen from him.
According to Congressman Pascrell, “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.”
As The Hill publication recounts in “House Democrat calls for Clarence Thomas to resign following report of wife’s email with Eastman”:
“Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-N.J.) called on Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to resign on Thursday after news that his wife, Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, emailed with conservative lawyer John Eastman, who was central in former President Trump’s efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.
“‘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,’ Pascrell said.
“‘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,’ he added.” [emphasis added]
Other than Ginni’s emails, Pascrell offered no evidence that Justice Thomas did anything corrupt or that he knew of his wife’s emails.
What is your opinion of Pascrell’s demand that Justice Thomas resigns because Pascrell believes Thomas is corrupt?
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."
