The release of damning text messages from the Supreme Court justice's wife has led to calls for Clarence Thomas to step down from elections cases.
The former White House chief of staff MarkMeadows was urged to overturn the 2020 election by a woman. She pushed conspiracy theories that members of the Biden crime family were sent to be tried for seditious activity.
CNN reported on Thursday that a total of 29 text messages were exchanged between Thomas andMeadows from November 2020 to January 2021. The House select committee obtained the messages from Meadows.
Don't concede. It takes time for the army who is gathering for his back, according to Thomas.
On November 10, 2020, days after the major news networks declared Joe Biden the winner of the 2020 election, Thomas wrote to Mark, asking him to stand firm.
You are the leader and he is standing for America's constitutional governance at the precipice. According to The Post, the majority knows Biden and the Left is attempting the greatest Heist of our History.
This is unbelievable. You have the wife of a Supreme Court justice advocating for an insurrection, and she also knows that the election of the president&s chief of staff is going to come before her husband. This is a textbook case for recusing him from the decisions.

Earlier this month, Thomas said she didn't play a role in the planning of the events.
Though Thomas is actively involved in politics and her husband sits on the nation's highest court, she told the Free Beacon that the couple has their own separate careers and ideas.
She said that Clarence doesn't discuss his work with her, and that she doesn't involve him in her work.
All I hear is silence from the Supreme Court right now, and that better change in the coming week because every other federal judge in the country, except Supreme Court justices, would have guidance from ethics rules.
The Supreme Court is beholden to no ethics rules because Congress has not created them. The Court could create rules of its own.
The entire integrity of the court is at stake, and they have to speak out about it.
What would happen if Thomas refused to be involved in future election cases? The associate justice was involved in a sex discrimination case in 1996 at the Virginia Military Institute, where Thomas was a student.
