A yearly reminder at how much of a POS that Clarence Thomas is

[In It to Win It]

Me last year: https://www.democraticunderground.com/100217987971

Me this year:

I'm reading his [concurrence] in the [South Carolina] redistricting case, [Alexander v. South Carolina Conference of the NAACP], and...



...and [Republicans] wants to appoint more people like Clarence Thomas to the Supreme Court. I imagine [they] would appoint people like Clarence Thomas up and down the judiciary.

I'm going for a walk.

Clarence Thomas fucking loves quoting and citing himself.

1. Anita Hill tried to warn us. nt

2. It is why it is so important to make sure dems have majority in the senate and all branches of government

If the repugs get in I will bet they will get rid of the filibuster and expand the court with 4 more Alito/Thomas types on (before the dems can) and then the country is totally screwed. Election is number one fight that all must get involved.

3. This is what's great about Biden filling so many judicial vacancies

Making the most of having the control to do so while we have it.

It's possible Biden gets re-elected but we lose the senate, so I'm happy they're acting fast now. And if Donnie wins or coups and gets the senate as well, at least there will be few vacancies for him to fill.

That said, if Donnie gets back in the Oval Office, we're screwed anyway...

5. Doesn't help with the Supreme count though

Which is the biggest danger

6. True. But at least we're making the most of the opportunities we do have.

4. Clarence Thomas and the Trump appointees are proof that 1 term does than more than emough damage
