The Nation’s Mystal: Clarence Thomas a ‘Mutilated Version of a Black Justice’
Breitbart ^ | 07/01/2023 | Jeff poor

During Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The ReidOut,” The Nation justice correspondent Elie Mystal took a couple of shots at Supreme Court Associate Justice Clarence Thomas.

Mystal called Thomas a “mutilated version of a black justice,” adding that he was acting at the behest of his wife, Ginni Thomas.

“In Clarence Thomas’s concurrence in the affirmative action decision, first of all, he cites Plessy a lot,” host Joy Reid said. “I thought Plessy was like verboten like nobody wants to talk about Plessy v. Ferguson. He sure does. And at one point, make this make sense for me, please. You’re a lawyer. In his concurrence, he claims that the Freedmen’s Bureau Act, which created the Freedmen’s Bureau, you know, that was supposed to rematriculate former enslaved people, who all of whom, 100% of whom were black, back into society. He said oh, that was a colorblind statute. How could the Freedmen’s Bureau, Elie Mystal, be a colorblind statute? Make that make sense.”

And I might add, that is their only job.

To be honest, other SCOTUS justices have made rulings that
open them up to impeachment, not adhering to their oath of
office.
