Why Isn't Clarence Thomas Facing Impeachment Hearings?
The disgraceful Supreme Court justice should be held accountable for his actions but probably won't.

Because right-wingers are EXTREMELY, overwhelmingly, almost unanimously corrupt. They would never punish one of their own, no matter heinous, unethical, or repugnant the crime. They know that if they do not all stick together lock-step no matter what, their illegitimately stolen power will fall apart like used wet toiletpaper.
Which allows them to continue committing crimes…
left wingers are any better? I got one for you, the state is neither, it has both parties in it and only two parties. it is corrupt, rub two brain cells to together to arrive at a conclusion outside of the left/right framework. I know it is hard but work on it.
like why are you even make this left right when most of us are the bottom?
left wingers are any better?
Yeah.
Remember when Al Franken resigned because someone said they were bother by his actions decades ago? Remember how there were bipartisan investigations into Benghazi and Hillary emails? Or when Bill Clinton let an independent special prosecutor attempt to find evidence of corruption?
How about how Lindsey Graham said that he would never support confirming a supreme court justice before a presidential election and then did that? Or how many of Trump's administration have went to jail?
This "both sides are just as bad" number doesn't work when one side is activity lieing, curtailing freedoms and attempting literal coups, while the other side has obeyed due process and law the overwhelming majority of the time.
In other words: you don't know what "left winger" means.
Hint: The U.S. Democratic Party is not left wing.
it is corrupt, rub two brain cells to together to arrive at a conclusion outside of the left/right framework.
Weird that 1/2 of this framework, the D group, always votes against gigantic tax cuts for the rich, and the R group always votes for the exact opposite. Both sides are the same opposite of each other.
like why are you even make this left right when most of us are the bottom?
Because if you are at the bottom, you would be an extreme fool to vote for the party that consistently gives gigantic tax cuts to billionaires.

Dems have their problems but jfc. What planet do you "bOtH sIdEs" truthers live on?
Centrist Democratic Politician: we want to exploit labor and centralize weath and power, but we want people to like us so we'll do some incrementally good things things to keep folks satisfied
Centrist Republican Politician: we want to exploit labor and centralize weath and power, and fuck you. If you don't support us rapist minorities are going to rape you to death, or you might have to see people who aren't like you in public.
🎶Corruption 🎶.... jazz hands
Someone needs to do a school house rock cover
Because of politics.
And you know that will never happen because the Democrats don't have a spine.
@ProfThadBach In all honesty though, why would we expect any better when our only major parties are far-right fascists and right-of-center liberals? That's two right-wing parties controlling everything.
Okay but you know expanding the court is a nuclear option. Like the current place we are in is there are 6 "conservative" judges and 3 "liberal" ones. So you would need to introduce 4 new supreme court justices at minimum to upset the current balance. While you are sort of ignoring the Senate has 49 republicans, 48 dems, and 3 "independents". So who again confirms supreme court justices? Oh yeah senate.... This is also ignoring you would have to make a new act to set the number of supreme court justices to 13 and who has majority control over house again? So lets fast forward to some future where dems have unquestionable control over the legislative branch of government where they can't be filibustered down. What exactly stops conservatives from just increasing that number once again to 18 or so when they have control?
Money.
Because in reality its not Republicans vs Democrats. It’s Us against Them. They will never side with Us against one of their own. We exist to fill their coffers, we are necessary bugs in the system.
Cause he's doing his job well and accurately, according to the text of the constitution itself?
You know that thing the left likes to pretend doesn't exist?
"The left" aka the rest of the developed world, but OK boss. Ignore the cartoonishly obvious corruption. I guess justices can just accept huge gifts from whoever, business before the court or not. Because it's not specifically called out in the constitution it's all good! Ethics is canceled, we can all go home. Cool, cool.
justices can just accept huge gifts from whoever
Right up until some kindergartner gives Jackson a hand drawn picture of a rainbow and Tucker Carlson has an aneurysm over it.
Could you explain to me how taking bribes from people he is presiding over is doing his job “well and accurately”? Founding fathers would have kicked him out a long time ago
The founding fathers wouldn't have let him off the plantation, but I get what you're saying.
As usual, the conservative chimes in with a comment utterly ignorant of the issues at hand.
The constitution has nothing to do with this; it's about ethics violations. Educate yourself.
When the facts are everywhere, how can you say that.
bootlicker spotted
unless this is 4d sarcasm but i doubt once you mention Ze lEfT
Article II section 4 of the constitution
The President, Vice President and all civil Officers of the United States, shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and Conviction of, Treason, Bribery, or other high Crimes and Misdemeanors.
That seems like a part of the constitution he isn't upholding
Maybe if you read the constitution you'd understand what's going on.
Yeah but that only applies to the libs. Obviously. And I'm sure they've done much worse. The constitution doesn't matter.
@TomTheGeek - interesting perspective. Do you care to support it beyond your initial comment? You've got a lot of opposition.
Speaking of not thinking the Constitution exists:
Trump should not be able to run for president based on the disqualification clause of the 14th amendment because of the insurrection.
Fourteenth Amendment, Section 3: "No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability."
Other things of note: 'In early 2016, Trump again had gutting the First Amendment in view, this time wanting to “open up the libel laws” to infringe on the freedom of the press. That summer, he vowed to protect articles of the Constitution that do not exist. In 2017, he said constitutional checks and balances that required him to share power with Congress are a “very rough” and “archaic” system, which is “a really bad thing for the country.” That fall, he said asserting Fifth Amendment rights is proof of guilt. In 2018, he floated unilaterally ending birthright citizenship in violation of the 14th Amendment.
In 2019, Trump repeatedly claimed Article II of the Constitution gave him “the right to do whatever I want.” The same year, he argued he should be able to abuse national emergency declarations to expand his own power beyond constitutional boundaries because Democrats would do the same thing if given the chance. In 2020, he reportedly expressed interest in declaring martial law though the constitutional preconditions for it, per Ex parte Milligan (1866), had not been met. And just last month, he called for executing drug dealers after a two-hour trial modeled on communist China’s justice system, a blatant rejection of constitutional due process. By the standard of many of his Republican supporters, even Trump’s record on the Second Amendment falls short."
Because half of Congress supports this corrupt sack of shit.
Because everything is under control, and it's all going according to plan
Why do I keep needing to block this community? How does it keep getting out into my feed?
Not sure why you’d need to block it more than once, but if you need assistance let me know and I can get this magazine blocked for you pretty quickly.
