  • Clarence Thomas was not spoken to about 2020 election challenges.

  • The September testimony of the conservative activist was made public on Friday.

  • She was unable to point to any instances of voter fraud.

It was laughable for anyone who knew Clarence Thomas to think that he could influence his judicial philosophy.

Clarence Thomas is "stubborn" and "uninterested in politics" according to the conservative activist who gave a voluntary interview to the House panel.

"I am certain I never spoke with him about any of the legal challenges to the 2020 election, as I was not involved in those challenges in any way," she told the panel. It's laughable for people who know my husband to think I could influence his jurisprudence. The man is independent and stubborn.

During her January 6 interview, she said that she regretted sending the messages to MarkMeadows, who was the White House chief of staff at the time.

She told the committee that she regretted all of the text messages. People were scared that there had been enough fraud happening that they weren't going to get to the bottom of it. I would look at it that way.

While she had concerns about voter fraud in the 2020 election, she couldn't point to specific cases.

She couldn't say that she was familiar with any specific evidence. grassroots activists who were inside of various polling places that found things suspicious were hearing about it.

The Republican vice chair of the January 6 panel, Liz Cheney of Wyoming, asked Ginni Thomas if she had any information about votingIrregularities in 2020.

That's right." I'm aware. She admitted that she was not very deep.

I was hearing it from many people I trust. She said that she thought there should be people at the state level looking into the problems before they got too bad.

In the wake of the 2020 election, Thomas sent emails to a number of GOP legislators in Arizona and Wisconsin, urging them to overturn Biden's victory.

Ginni Thomas, well known in GOP circles for decades, has only in the past few years become a larger figure in the public sphere, driven by her ties to prominent conservatives as her husband has taken a prominent role as a leader of the now-dominant conservative bloc on the Supreme Court

With a 6-3 conservative majority on the high court, Justice Thomas' judicial philosophy has taken on enormous significance as the conservative bloc is set to remake some of the most pertinent issues in American society for the foreseeable future.
