Chris Hayes on the Russian campaign to pay MAGA pundits to spread Putin propaganda—and why all those 'gifts' to a Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas aren't that dissimilar.
Justice Clarence Thomas faces yet another call to recuse himself, following reporting that his wife, Ginni Thomas, praised a conservative religious group’s opposition to Supreme Court reform. Senate Judiciary Committee Chair Dick Durbin, D-Ill., called on the justice to recuse himself from cases involving that group, the First Liberty Institute. ProPublica reported that Ginni wrote in an email to the group, “YOU GUYS HAVE FILLED THE SAILS OF MANY JUDGES.
So there’s little reason to expect Durbin’s latest call to sway Thomas this time around. Durbin didn’t cite any specific First Liberty Institute cases in his announcement, though the Supreme Court adds cases to its docket on a rolling basis. Notably, however, Thomas did recuse from a case last year, specifically a Jan. 6–related petition from MAGA lawyer John Eastman.
