So proud of the most distinguished man, Clarence Thomas stood up for what is right.
This lawyer is making a case that would be unique in American history. You would think his best argument would be to use the angle of what Trump did is also unique and rises to a level of impropriety to warrant such a unique response. The lawyer is not even mentioning that Trump did anything wrong. Clearly they just prefer Trump not be president. And they also know the voters in their states would likely elect him. If they get their way, every state can capriciously eliminate the candidate they would not like to see as president. In effect, the individuals through the state courts would determine the outcome of the election, not the voters.
The lawyer was being a bit condescending to the judge, but that doesn't help his argument either way.
TRUMP Is a CULT LEADER
MAGA is a CULT
Maralago is WACO
Could some please lend Trump a match
I love ❤️ Clarence Thomas!! He is a real G!!
Will. not. answer. the. question.
Sad that so many Dems are blind with hate, this same thing happened in the civil war when they wanted to keep the slaves.
Kangaroo law suit and kangaroo lawyer agruing in front of the supreme court………..the justices are having a good time multi tasking while punching huge holes in this case.
Weak argument. Because they have nothing to stand on. Every single case they have brought against this man is a sham. Every one.
Lawyer irrevocably btfo. 😂😂 it's joever
Arguing state law in a Federal case is just a stupid idea.
Key words, States didn’t police at time of Article 14. At this time.
Dude so full of shit.
This stuff is gonna down in history as the most laughable case that ever made it to the Supreme Court. “Mafeelings say my thoughts are true. Why are you not agreeing with me like all my co-workers in CO?”
The new Russian USA
Corrupt Thomas is a disgrace to the SCOTUS, with and without his insurrectionist wife.
There are no precendents since pre civil war and lincoln
Did Democrats try to keep Republicans off the ballet? Yes, Trump and Lincoln
When you have to call in a professional salesperson to convince people that French Toast is no longer French Toast, but an egg with vanilla smeared into bread, YOU KNOW the system is corrupt!
C'MON MAN!! – If you hate Trump, so be it, hate 'em but gosh dammit also show you know how to be a real American and help PROTECT our system of Constitutional Republic which is being ripped apart by a bunch of rich Oligarchs who needs to find their own courtroom and face JUSTICE for TREASON…
No faith in this corrupt judge. He has no integrity and should have resigned by now
The 14th amendment deals with seating the person…has nothing to do with them being on the ballot or not on the ballot in a national election.
LOVE JUSTICE THOMAS!
That lawyer had some quite contradictory statements there.
If they remove Trump from voting then you will start a new civil war
Thomas talked? This guy is in trouble.
that lawyer should be disbarred for entering fraudulent information into the record.
What an excellent question raised by judge Thomas to trip this idiot up.
Letting only a handful of people decide for all the people is an oligarchy and false representation
If you live on social security, like i do. Don't vote republican. They can and will cut it to the bone. If you will remember the 2022 elections. All the republican candidates ran on the idea to end socialism. They mean by this, your social security check. Your medicare, your affordable housing ect. They want to pull it up by the roots. Of course then they will give a big tax break to the rich after they cut it.
"On January 6, 2021, an angry crowd incited by Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol to try and overturn the will of the voters — wielding weapons, Bibles, crosses, and "Jesus is my savior" flags.
Now, three years later, the U.S. Supreme Court is poised to determine whether Trump can be held accountable for the violent, failed Christian-nationalist coup.
Corrupt Justice Clarence Thomas could potentially hold the deciding vote — despite the facts that he has received unethical payouts from religious-right activists like Leonard Leo and that his wife, Ginni, played a central role in trying to overturn the election.
As Christians called to the holy work of truth and justice, we must come together in this critical moment to demand that Clarence Thomas recuse himself.
With Christian nationalism on the rise now more than ever and the very future of American democracy on the line, we have what may be a matter of days to act.
Last week, a federal appeals court sharply denied Trump's extraordinary claim that he is immune from criminal prosecution for trying to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
Now it's up to the Supreme Court to choose: allow the ruling to stand, in which case Trump's trial could proceed — or reconsider his astonishing claim that presidents are above the law.
Justice Thomas should have recused himself from all cases dealing with Trump long ago. In the days and months after the 2020 election, his spouse Ginni Thomas was in close contact with Mark Meadows, Trump's then chief of staff. Among the many text messages that the media released between the two, Ginni wrote to Meadows, "Do not concede. It takes time for the army who is gathering for his back."
Ginni supported and attended the "Stop the Steal" rally on January 6 before the violent attack on the Capitol. She went so far as to personally pressure lawmakers in Arizona and Wisconsin to override the popular vote in their states by selecting Trump loyalists as electors."
Repent Trump!
Insurrection! this is what the Supreme Court has to say about it.
U.S. Supreme Court in its 1868 ruling in Texas v. White. That ruling concluded that a state (or states) could secede by gaining approval of both houses of Congress and then obtaining ratification by three fourths of the nation's legislatures. In other words, it's a tough task. But under today’s circumstances, not impossible. Democrats had better smarten up, or they will find themselves on the wrong side of history again., they lost slavery battle.
Barring candidates from Elections, is Election Interference, it removes the right of the people to vote for a candidate.
Are you listening Supreme Court of America.
1968 ruling says you can secede from the Union.
So what if 28 Republican States start process to secede next week. That would be Legal, so now you have Two Countries USA Republicans and USA Democrats. Well done.
This case is going nowhere. Radicals in the State cannot control the Federal election. If Trump is removed it disenfranchise 70-90M american voters. This is why we have elections.
Judge Thomas is very well read. I actually read most of the books he mentioned. I think he is spot on accurate
The citations are local. Not national.
That citation was local.
Thomas is a bada**. Bravo Sir!
I dont think this lawyer will be invited back in front of the supreme court any time soon. If you cant answer the question in a deliberate and insightful manner pretaining to the matter mentioned you are just wasting the courts time and even supreme court justices like the short days you sometimes get at work.
OK. What's your example after the 1890s
Tldr. "There are none but I want to get rid of trump anyway"
This guy is rambling in circles like a used car salesman because he's a liar and he knows it. Notice he uses the word "many" without listing any examples…
Dems doing everything to disenfranchise American citizens.
look at his words, "respect the capital police", "make your voices heard peacefully", " we are the party of law and order"… Not very insurrectionist speech whatsoever
What about the fact that Trump has not even been indicted for an insurrection, nor has he been prosecuted for one, nor has he been found guilty of one
I am Democrat but I think Judge Thomas is a fair judge.
Imagine being a lawyer and waiting your whole life to argue a case in the Supreme Court and then also being so dumb that you take this horrible case just to get humiliated.
Oh the things one will do in pursuit of money.
I am simply going to ask how is one an insurrectionist when one has never even been charged with insurrection?
My rights as an American citizen would be violated to vote
