Impeachment-happy Democrats are expected to hold a hearing to explore the possibility of impeachment for Supreme Court justices in the wake of controversial messages surfacing from the wife of conservative Justice Clarence Thomas.

I’m guessing we will NEVER see the GOP turn the tables on these holes. EVERY democrat who didn’t condemn the Black Lies Matter and Antifa riots should have lawsuits to kick them off of ballots across the country. Did any of the dems on the court condemn the riots, and impeach them. Start playing hardball like the Media-Dem Party does.
Conflict of interest? They might want to start by first impeaching Kagan who, despite the fact that she was Obama’s solicitor general, in charge of defending Obamacare against constitutional challenges before she was appointed to the SC, would not recuse herself on ruling on the defense brief she and her office prepared to defend against the challenge to its constitutionality. She has taken sleaze to new heights on that court knowing her unilateral refusal to recuse could not be appealed.
They have goals.
The only goal on the right over the last three decades has been to destroy
Trump’s ability to help this nation.
We get the majority and they do absolutely nothing.
It’s very frustrating, infuriating.
The Dems are all on the same page. At any given time we have multiple
people out advocating different policy on the same topic.
Absolutely zero chance. I understand some skepticism, but this is just cynicism gone nuts. Remember what the Turtle did with Garland, and how he called in every chip he had to ram through both of Trump's nominees. The Supreme Court is something that has always really mattered to McConnell, and he will hold every single Republican vote on this. Zero chance this goes anyway.
Pretty sure i know when some of my last nerves are being stepped on. 😊
Trying to get a lefty judge in before midterms. Go for it scumbags! Red wave only gets larger
That’s RACIST!
“The crimes of one spouse are not automatically imputed to the other spouse.”
You are correct. Plus Mrs. Thomas has not been formally charged with or convicted of a crime.
If the Democrats want to go down this road, the Republicans should be screaming about Pelosi’s husband’s insider trading, Hunter Biden’s financial activities, the pay to play money laundering of the Clinton Foundation while Hillary was Secretary of State, and a host of other “criminal” activities by Democrats. We hear nothing from the GOP because many Republican politicians are knee deep in insider trading, campaign fund shenanigans, and ties with special interests receiving government money. Note the recent insider trading issues with retiring Senator Burr of NC which miraculously ended when he was one of the GOP senators voting to convict Donald Trump in the Senate trial after Trump left office.
The Left has captured most institutions in this country - Democrat Party, education at all levels, media, large corporations, organized religion, big medicine, courts, governments of most urban centers, the federal government bureaucracy, the military, and governments of many states. The full court press is on to replace our constitutional republic with an all powerful one party centralized government. The agenda is not hidden and no action to achieve total victory is considered outrageous. Sadly, those we elect to repel the barbarians currently breaching the gate are either standing by silently or actually cheering for the barbarians.
Yeah, I don’t think it’ll happen either. Butt, 81 million votes............
This proposed fight is a perfect example of why the "fight everything" mentality is so dumb.
This will play terribly for Democrats. Voters as a whole are livid over the Democrats causing and then ignoring all the real problems in the country. Polls also show that most Americans are sick of the January 6 crap for the same reason. For them to now spend their efforts going after a black Supreme Court Justice, with zero chance of success, is even worse. They'll push away far more voters than they gain with this stunt.
Just because you can fight something doesn't mean you should, especially when you know ahead of time that you're not going to win. Knowing when and where to fight -- where you actually maximize your chances of winning without great costs -- is how you win wars. Fighting battles you are sure to lose is generally pointless.
Can we ensure the ruskies have the exact gps locations of DC?
There maybe a few RINOS in the House who might vote to impeach Clarence Thomas but it will take at least 17 Senate Republicans to vote to convict and remove Justice Thomas from the Supreme Court if all 50 DimRat Senators vote to convict him. Murkowski, Collins and Romney are IMO the only Republican Senators I see possibly voting to convict.
It only takes a simple majority to convict in the House but a 2/3 super majority of the Senate to convict and remove a Federal Judge.
Sorry should read “It only takes a simple majority vote to IMPEACH in the House “ NOT CONVICT!
Pelosi has more balls than any of the GOPe.
**********
Don’t know about has more but I’m
sure she has entertained many.
I was referring to republicans voting to impeach Thomas.
That won’t happen.
The real truth is that democrats hate black people. They only like black people they use and pay off to promote their sick agenda. That is why RAT blacks get away with all kinds of financial crime.
So why do we put up with the GOP? Why is it another party could not have been formed? Obviously, the GOP cannot be reformed from being RAT lite.
I agree that you should not fight everything, but you should at least fight for what you say you believe.
They run on fiscal responsibility, yet agree to any spending increase.
They run on supporting the Constitution, yet do nothing to protect our rights
It’s the lesser of the 2 evils. That doesn’t mean we have to put up with them.
McCarthy embodies the typical GOPe. He will talk like a fighting conservative to the camera and then tell Lizard Cheney how much he despises his conservative peers.
Sick racist bass turds. They still can’t stand him because he married a white woman.
