arrest clarence thomas

[moonshinegnomie]

i dont care what teh reason is or even if theres a law.
hes dirty. its obvious. either arrest him or declare that every 5-4 decision where he was on teh majority side is invalid.

1. Soooo,

become like the repigs?

2. DOJ needs to investigate him

There is evidence that he committed crimes. DOJ may not want to appear to be partisan though because that's what Magats will accuse them of.

The IRS also needs to investigate him.

Clarence Thomas may be the 2nd biggest threat to our democracy next to Trump.

3. Yes, that's the correct procedure,

unlike what the OP is suggesting.

10. He clearly failed to comply with reporting obligations

And that can be, but usually isn't, the subject of a criminal prosecution (as contrasted with civil case seeking to impose fines).

As for bribery -- pretty difficult to prove and unlikely that DOJ would bother to try absent some smoking gun evidence showing that Thomas would have voted differently in any particular case but for some financial inducement -- something that given Thomas's long-held judicial philosophy, would be hard to establish.

4. so stick your head in the ground and wait.

im tired of that. the right plays dirty. taking the high ground doesnt work. its time to fight back just as dirty as they do.

5. Soooo, like I said,

become like the repigs.
Got it.

6. if thats what it takes

[MarineCombatEngineer]

7. No, that's not what it fucking takes,

what it takes is to stay within the Constitution, you know, the law of the land and nowhere in the Constitution, nor the Bill of Rights, is there anything that allows what you're pushing for.

This is what tyrants, despots and dictators do.

You sure you're in the right place?

8. Follow the $ and finally charge this asshole?

[MarineCombatEngineer]

9. Exactly, investigate first,

like SC Smith has and is still doing.

Unlike the OP, I tend to favor following the Constitution and the BoR, not arrest first then investigate, or make up a law or arrest even if there is not law to arrest for.

11. Not tehres?
