Jan. 6 Capitol riot committee interviewing Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court justice

Virginia Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas, moderates a pannel discussion titled “When did World War III Begin? Part A: Threats at Home” during the Conservative Political Action Conference at the Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center February 23, 2017 in National Harbor, Maryland.

Virginia Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, is going to be interviewed by the House select committee.

Virginia Thomas arrived at a Capitol Hill office building surrounded by security. The interview was scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m. Two sources told NBC about the situation.

As she walked down the hallway towards the conference room, Thomas didn't answer reporters' questions. She said thank you for being here. I would like to thank you for your question.

According to reports, Thomas was involved in efforts to challenge the results of the presidential election.

The spokesman for the committee declined to speak to CNBC. The Supreme Court's spokeswoman didn't reply to the email.

The Select Committee will interview Ginni Thomas this week.

Mark Paoletta said last week that Mrs. Thomas was eager to answer the committee's questions to clear up any misconception about her work. CNBC requested a response from Paoletta, but he did not reply immediately.

The facts and circumstances of the January 6, 2021, riot are being investigated by the panel. Legislators fled their chambers and temporarily stopped confirmation of Biden's victory over Trump in the 2020 election.

The committee was supposed to hold its ninth public hearing this week, but was put off due to Hurricane Ian.
