REMEMBER When you ask for ONE PERSON to do EVERYTHING YOU ARE IN FACT, BEGGING FOR A DICTATOR

[hierophant]

Clarence Thomas needs to RECUSE HIMSELF!!

[jeffmisch]

That's a lot of cowards gathered in on room.

[curtisrudduck]

3 of them lied to get their seats by saying they wouldn't overturn roe..

[melcinacarpenter]

What I got to say is this to the Supreme Court! THE WORLD IS WATCHING

[joycechicoine]

The Constitution couldn't be any clearer. Isn't that supposed to govern the entire country?

[maureencgarcia]

He should be removed from every single ballot

[mixong]

He’s not mentally fit to be in any position of merit, least of all one of power. He’s proven himself time and again. “YOU KNEW I WAS A SNAKE WHEN YOU TOOK ME IN!”

[johncromwell]

Can Thomas be called as a witness in the Jan 6 case?
Jinny Thomas??

[sunnydaysatl]

This is a waste of time we all know the outcome.

[yarazooom]

president=officer of federal government
senators/congressmen=officers of a State government
BOTH are officers of the US of America government

[elchefreedom]

Term limits for scotus must be in order

[AEturner-rcgo]

Just listen to the line of questions and you can tell their position. This is the problem with having politics thrown into the picture. Being barred from office one might assume includes running for office? During the 1800’s I can’t imagine that the constitutional amendments would exclude any office of the USA especially NOT the office of the President, that sounded like a bunch of nonsense

[ryanreedgibson]

History will not be kind to Clearance Thomas. He will be the topic covered in your first year of law school. Ethics 101!

[sylviaalfonso]

It doesn’t matter whether a Democrat or Republican. Anyone even a president doesn’t protect or allows or reaches out for an insurrection should be penalize to the highest decree. His purpose is to be a King let’s face it 🧐🧐

[krissyhimes]

Why are oral arguments even needed? The text is CLEAR and we all saw and heard what happened and he should be barred from holding ANY OFFICE!!

[davidgiles]

No justice under investigation for ETHICS VIOLATIONS should be ruling ON ANYTHING

[spartacusforlife]

I wonder if clarence thomas has a " for sale " sign around his neck

[Blt-rrlm]

The fact that political parties choose who they feel would support their views regarding morality, is incredible. The legal system should be headed by the the smartest and most impartial people you can find. Also, without term limits, the obvious problems are exacerbated. It’s an unbelievably stupid, limiting system.

[maryd]

Surprise - Roberts & Thomas asking questions which show they are trying to weasel out of applying the law to Trump! (Oh wait, NOT a surprise) 🤬Just the 'good ole boys club' - you know the GOP!
