In reply to the discussion: Clarence Thomas hit with astonishing accusation in Epstein files [View all]ShazzieB
(22,326 posts)40. I have always, always believed Anita Hill.
Especially after reading Strange Justice: The Selling of Clarence Thomas, and finding out he was an even bigger sleaze bag that I could have ever imagined.
His nomination to SCOTUS was a travesty that happened for all the wrong reasons: George H. W. Bush wanted to replace Thurgood Marshall with another African American, but he wanted a conservative one, and conservative African American candidates were all but nonexistent. Thomas was the ultimate DEI hire, barely qualified and completely unsuited for the job. He should never, ever have been confirmed.

That's why we have 9 now - it was increased after more districts were set.

Trump is a mobster and is protected by the Republican Party, the Court System, and a dirty media.

I can't go there right now. 🙈 It would not be good for me. Thanks for your reply, CP.

I believed every word Anita Hill said about "Long Dong Silver" aka Clarence Thomas.

During the Anita Hill testimony, it was so obvious who was telling the truth.

Psychopaths and pedophiles are everywhere in our government, apparently.

I never doubted Anita Hill - unlike some other people. Same goes for Dr. Christine Blasey Ford.

I sure don't want to see Justice Thomas leave before we take control of the Senate or Oval Office.
