Chief Justice Roberts, DO SOMETHING about Clarence Thomas!
426 so far! Help us get to 500 signers!
As you’re aware, the Washington Post reported last night that Kellyanne Conway funneled money from Leonard Leo to Ginni Thomas—Clarence Thomas’s wife. Per the Post, Leonard Leo told Conway to “give” $25,000 to Ginni Thomas but to make “no mention of Ginni.”
The facts reported by the Washington Post suggest bribery. It is incumbent on Justice Thomas to explain why the secret transfer of $25,000 to Ginni Thomas was a lawful payment for services rendered or a gift, and why it was not reported on Thomas’s annual disclosure form. The failure to report was likely a crime even if the payment was legal. The Justice Department should be brought in to determine if charges are appropriate; Chief Justice Roberts, the president, and Congress should all call for this immediately.
Also, Thomas needs to resign or be impeached. Scandals related to him are now breaking with a frequency that would be comical were the consequences of his corruption not so grave. He is a disgrace; as long as he sits on the Supreme Court it lacks all legitimacy.
Please act with the urgency that’s appropriate to this moment. Congress's reaction, as well as that of the Chief Justice, has thus far has been wholly inadequate. Thanks.
