We are so fortunate to have Thomas on the USSC.
All of his words are pure gold. A magnificent mind.

Speaking at UT Austin?

I'm surprised they didn't protest his planned speech with a student walkout.

He might as well have been pissing on a house fire.

Speaking of Justice T, the Supreme Court will be releasing Opinions at 10 this morning. I have a SCOTUS thread all ready to go and will post it at about 9:45.

The voting rights act case is the only one undecided for the October sitting so we might get that one today.

Compare Justice Thomas to his colleague Justice Brown. Light years in IQ difference. In fact, ALL 3 democrat justices are morons, imbeciles, idiots, compared to ANY of the 6 Republican justices.
