America survived a terrorist attack orchestrated by our then president Donald Trump. Mike Pence refused to enact the 25th Amendment despite Trump rioters calling for him to be hanged — Pence is a potted plant. Meanwhile, the House impeached Trump a second time and the Senate is scheduled to hold an impeachment trial starting the week of Feb. 8.
Shockingly, the Trump rioters were reportedly egged-on by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife Ginni Thomas.
According to the Washington Post, Ginni apologized to her husband’s former law clerks for a “rift that developed among them” after she promoted Trump and reportedly endorsed the Jan. 6 rally in D.C. that resulted in our nation’s Capital being attacked.
However, Ginni did more that promote or advocate for Trump. She promoted conspiracy theories that claimed that Trump really won the election. She promoted The Big Lie.
Meet Ginni Thomas
Ginni Thomas is married to Justice Clarence Thomas. Ginni spent much of 2020 condemning Black Lives Matter, opposing coronavirus shutdowns while amplifying the “Walk Away” movement.
Ginni has a history of working to oppose the Affordable Care Act, affectionately known as Obamacare. She has also opposed LGBTQ rights and women’s rights.
Dark Money
In late 2009, Thomas formed a non-profit lobbying group, Liberty Central, to organize conservative activists, issue score cards for Congress members and be involved in elections.
Liberty Central reportedly received nearly $1.5 million in its first two years from undisclosed donors.
Ginni claimed that her organization would fight the “tyranny” of the new president — referring to former President Barack Obama.
Ethics group Common Cause filed a complaint with the IRS stating that the group engaged in too much partisan activity to claim a nonprofit status. The group was possibly violating tax laws. Liberty Central appears to no longer be active.
Food For Thought: Thomas reportedly paid herself an annual salary of $120,000 and her husband failed to disclose this income. Why?
Use Her Experience and Connections
After closing Liberty Central, Ginni founded Liberty Consulting in 2011. Many have pointed out that this lobbying business was a conflict of interest due to her husband’s position on the Supreme Court.
Liberty Consulting boasted on its website that Ginni would use her “experience and connections” to help clients with “governmental affairs efforts”, raising questions as to whether Justice Thomas can remain unbiased in cases involving healthcare, women’s rights and LGBTQ rights.
Ginni has spent years leading a group called Groundswell which reportedly had close ties to Trump and senior officials in his administration.
30-Front War
Groundswell’s agenda was to promote extreme-right policies. Steve Bannon, John Bolton and Dan Bongino reportedly have had ties with this shadowy group.
David Corn at Mother Jones characterized Groundswell as group that has been meeting privately to “concoct talking points, coordinate messaging, and hatch plans for 'a 30-front war seeking to fundamentally transform the nation.”
The Big Lie
After Joe Biden and Kamala Harris won the election, Ginni not only promoted The Big Lie, falsely claiming that Biden and Harris stole the election, she even demanded that Congress overturn Biden’s win.
Encouraged Rioters
Thomas appears to have Tweeted out encouragement to rioters prior to the attack on our Capitol saying, “GOD BLESS EACH OF YOU STANDING UP OR PRAYING.”
Then, just before the rioters attacked our Capitol to hunt Mike Pence, Nancy Pelosi, AOC, Chuck Schumer, Chuck Grassley and our other duly elected officials, Thomas sent them her “LOVE” on Facebook.
Should Justice Thomas Resign?
Many Americans have called on Justice Thomas to resign. Many are speculating that this may be why Ginni suddenly came forward with a well-timed apology.
Ethics Question: Should the wife of a sitting Supreme Court Justice be scheming and plotting to deceive American voters into believing false narratives about our elections?
