We have written about the United States Supreme Court several times in the past two years. It is not news to anyone that confidence in the court has plummeted following many disclosures of benefits received by justices Alito and Thomas from private individuals whose business issues come before the court. We write today specifically about Justice Thomas and matters that the court will have to decide, probably within the next year and also probably prior to the elections next November.
There are many reports, which apparently have been confirmed and never been refuted, that Virginia Thomas, wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, worked with those in the White House to attempt to overturn the results of the 2020 election, after President Biden won and former President Trump lost. Various news agencies have published emails between Mrs. Thomas, Mark Meadows and others, apparently establishing the work she did to deny the American electorate the results fairly reached. It also appears to have been proven that Mrs. Thomas received lucrative contracts for her consulting company from people with the same interests, notably Leonard Leo, head of the Federalist Society.
