Thomas also repeatedly attempted to steal the legal precedent set by the court.
“The irony is so strong you wonder, maybe he’s imitating Clarence Thomas,” former U.S. attorney Harry Litman told MSNBC on Saturday.
“Among other things, this is someone who has spent his entire life trying to break all the key precedents of the Supreme Court,” Litman added. “Now he says that people do not respect the law enough. He ignores all the controversy he has caused, as well as his wife. It’s … remarkable. “
Lawmaker Ted Liu (D-Califor.) Wrote that the Supreme Court’s purpose was to “intimidate” pregnant women “educated by the government.”
Judge Clarence Thomas was wrong again. Governments force women to become pregnant by state mandate, at the risk of incarceration. Many Supreme Court justices have lied about the process of their claim #RoeVWade And a determined look. These are the facts. https://t.co/4kUUVpckPG

Even before his speech, MP Corey Bush (D-Mo.) Mentioned that Thomas and Conservative Judge Brett Cavanaugh were being questioned on credible allegations of sexual misconduct during their affirmative hearings, but disrupted women’s reproductive rights. .
As a survivor, I think about how Brett Cavanaugh and Clarence Thomas were accused of abusing and molesting Thomas women and now we will be denied our right to abortion.
The offenders did not belong to a public office. Weather.

From a Supreme Court that only recognizes one religion and tries to impose their personal beliefs nationwide, even if 70% of the country is against it, women should not despise having children.

Someone had to ask Thomas to define the word “bullying”. Is that what he did to Anita Hill?

So the Supreme Court Justice, whose husband sent text messages urging White House staff to do more to cancel free and fair elections, does not believe government officials should ” apingin to get the desired result? ” You tell me. 🤦🏻

It’s embarrassing that Clarence Thomas didn’t tell his wife, Jean, that he learned to “live” following the 2020 election.
