News Clarence Thomas failed to disclose Russian yacht trip; tour of Putin’s hometown?

[Jaskalas]

Russia, Russia, Russia. Why is it that it's almost always the Republicans enmeshed with Russia?

Klan sticks together.

 

[Jaskalas]

The best supreme court money can buy.

The republican party has a major corruption problem. Why don't their voters hold them accountable? Are they afraid? They are a bunch of cowards!

Nowadays voting is easy for those who love democracy. You just have to vote for the person who isn't corrupt. They are the ones with the D next to their name.

From their perspective it is the Jedi Democrats who are evil.

You want to perceive things in a logical sense, as it makes sense to you. But humans DO NOT operate that way. Logic is secondary to our feelings, to our beliefs. We will believe whatever it takes to stroke our Egos. And if they imagine themselves as good old hard working patriotic Americans, then they'll drink the kool-aid and believe that Democrats have destroyed the nation and that THEY will save it from us. Through any means, including letting Vlad the Butcher pay their ticket.

Again, humans do not think rationally, as we WILL rationalize anything.

I'd agree, but the final headlines are going to be that it didn't succeed and that's enough for most of our electorate.

it's crazy right? 8 fake hearings against Hillary Clinton where zero evidence was ever produced, and all those braindead fucks believe she killed people in Bengazi.

why is it that the media is so fucking beholden to the absolute dumbest human beings that this world has ever produced: republican voters, by stroking their ever-fragile egos and coddling them in their delusions that fake investigations are real, but we don't need to talk about actual felonies, multiple rapes, unchecked traitorous corruption and that any mention of those plain indisputable facts are just made-up lies?

You have self-described adults like fucking Greenman going around to this day, all the plain evidence and facts available to him, yet he refuses to believe any of it is real, for made-up reasons.

These are the worst humans that have ever fucking lived, and they live among us and seek only to end the United States as it is. Fuck them.

In general, Mitch was generally a hawk when it came to standing up to Russia. Getting a smelting plant in your state doesn't seem to be very pro-Russia anyway, since it would effectively be infrastructure in the US.

End the end, it is only ever direct cash payments to Putin when you make a deal with a Russian oligarch. Mitch knows who butters his bread.

This is all because we were told that if we didn't live up to whatever horse shit we were told that conforming to would make us great people the punishment would be eternal. Humans rationalize because language can be used to create the notion that good and evil actually exist. The practice of self realization in the infinite ways it can occur, the collapse of the illusion of duality, brings a return to the real self. As I have told you repeatedly, the human nature you think is real is only a disease.

 

[Moonbeam]

It will absolutely go nowhere but I think it’s a good idea still. Try to generate news headlines about the corruption.

It absolutely will go somewhere. It is the truth. The mental world of human beings is a war of ideas. That world is in a state of evolution. There is only one place to go and that's straight ahead. So yes, it is an absolutely good idea to hammer on this. Those in the dark are in the dark because they fear the light. Those with the courage to face the truth will endlessly confound those who live in fear.

Look how Trump is running away from Project 2025. "Who me, associated with that? No way."

You know he is all in. Everything he says the opposite is true.

 

[Fanatical Meat]

Wasn’t it Mitch that tried to get the Russian aluminum plant in his home state

He did however Mitch isn’t that pro Russia, I give him a pass on that. I still like to call him “Moscow Mitch” because winning for him and party is more important than America winning to him.

 

[Moonbeam]

That's my point. It the American people ever figure out what the the revenge Presidency Trump will unleash on them really looks like the dog catcher will win. They are counting on Biden hiding the truth and allowing the Democrats to do Biden in. Victory depends of focus on focus on Biden rather than the truth about Trump. They are so grateful for Democrats doing their work for them.

 

[MrSquished]

Honestly we'd all be better off if this fucking piece of shit human drove his RV off a cliff by accident. I hope he does. It won't be a moment too soon.

 

[gothuevos]

Now imagine Trump appoints another 1-2 justices next term. Half the SCOTUS appointed by one guy.

 

[cytg111]

Russia, Russia, Russia. Why is it that it's almost always the Republicans enmeshed with Russia?

Cause Republicans are selling and Russia is buying.

 

[Greenman]

I can't figure out where the two senators picked up this story. Clearly it's true because Thomas is a repbublician, but where did the information come from?

 

[fskimospy]

Wouldn't a more reasonable interpretation be 'this is probably true due to Thomas' long, documented history of doing exactly this'?

 

[Greenman]

Wouldn't a more reasonable interpretation be 'this is probably true due to Thomas' long, documented history of doing exactly this'?

It's not an unreasonable assumption, but it also isn't an answer. I'm always more than a bit suspicious of information that comes from any site that also peddles boner pills, toe fungus cream, and supplements.

But a more reasonable assumption than saying he's being railroaded for being a Republican, agree?

I mean after all just look at the absolutely insane levels of corruption he's publicly admitted to.

 

[Greenman]

That he's being railroaded is also a reasonable assumption. I've seen him referred to as an "uncle tom" right here in p&n.

All of that is simply a smoke screen to hide the basic question, where did the evidence for these accusations originate? That's all I'm asking. I read the article, the citation is that two congressmen mentioned it. I'm good with that, where did they source the information? We're missing the who what when where and the why.

Just for the record, tossing in the "Putin's home town" to give the story a more nefarious shadow is cheap theater.

The point is Thomas continually “forgets” to report or disclose this stuff and any other Judge in the country would face consequences. At what point is forgetting to do something incompetence?

 

[fskimospy]

Seems pretty pointless to 'railroad' a guy for corruption that's essentially the same as the corruption he's already admitted to.

BTW Uncle Tom was actually intended as a heroic character. If we're talking about it in terms of the epithet though while I wouldn't call him that and he's not the craven apparatchik Alito is, now that Trump is out of office he's the most obviously corrupt federal official in office today and this is a world where Bob Menendez exists.

It's not a smoke screen and I frankly don't care about these accusations one way or the other because... again... we already know Thomas does this sort of shit all the time!

He is a Supreme Court judge.. his job is to know and comprehend the laws of the government... forgetting is not an option

It still doesn't answer my question. An accusation was made based on some information discovered somewhere. Was it a witness who heard him list out his crimes? Was it some documentation found describing his nefarious activities?
It's not a tough question, it's not assuming his guilt or innocence, it's just a simple "where did this come from".
So far the responses are fixated on his obvious guilt, and that's not what I asked about.

Guys this ONE time greenman is very concerned about knowing all the facts before rendering an opinion.

Who fucking cares how this information was discovered

As long as his 4th admendment rights were not violated it’s fair game

And yes I know the irony that he violated women’s rights with his latest decision

He is a Supreme Court Justice. His job is to Lord over and smite down they who do not agree with The Federalist views.

 

[thilanliyan]

He needs the court to make a ruling on this before forming an opinion since it's a republican.
Of course since the person in question is a SC justice the SC ruling is not guilty suckassss!!!
