Dan Rather asked questions and made a career out of it.

In light of the new revelations about the wife of a Supreme Court Justice, the TV news anchor had just two.

What does Clarence Thomas know? And when did he know it?

— Dan Rather (@DanRather) March 25, 2022

On Thursday, it was revealed that Ginni Thomas sent some two dozen off-the-rails text messages loaded with wild conspiracy theories about the 2020 election to then-White House chief of staff MarkMeadows, urging him to overturn Donald Trump's 2020 election defeat.

We already knew a lot about this storyline, but today proved that there still is a potential for surprise. Rather wrote in a follow-up on Substack.

Rather said that the January insurrection was a coup attempt and that Trump's lies about the 2020 election have become a problem for the Republican Party.

The Supreme Court decision earlier this year raises two questions for her husband.

The court rejected Trump's attempt to stop Congress from getting White House records.

Clarence Thomas was the only dissenter.

I wonder if Thomas was trying to protect his wife.

He asked what else he could know. The questions are much deeper.

The Supreme Court said on Sunday that Thomas was hospitalized and was expected to be released within a day or two. The court didn't give any updates.
