September 4, 20241 yr she is a radical extremist and the Thomas family corruption stinks. Ginni Thomas’s Secret Work to Stop Supreme Court Reform Exposed A right-wing religious rights group is fighting Supreme Court reform, and Ginni Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, is secretly one of its top supporters. The First Liberty Institute has a budget of $25 million per year and calls itself "the largest legal organization in the nation dedicated exclusively to defending religious liberty for all Americans.” On July 31, the head of the institute, litigator Kelly Shackleford, held a private call with his organization’s top donors and read out an appreciative email from Thomas, according to ProPublica, which obtained a recording. "YOU GUYS HAVE FILLED THE SAILS OF MANY JUDGES. CAN I JUST TELL YOU, THANK YOU SO, SO, SO MUCH,” Thomas’s email read in all caps, Shackleford said. Shackleford added that Thomas also recently met with a First Liberty Institute staffer. "Great to meet through the meetings today,” Thomas wrote, according to Shackleford. "I cannot adequately express enough appreciation for you guys pulling into reacting to the Biden effort on the Supreme Court.” "Many were so depressed at the lack of response by R’s and conservatives” to recent court-reform proposals, Thomas’s email reportedly continued. Shackleford told the donors that he saw the email as proof that judges who "can’t go out into the political sphere and fight” appreciated the organization’s efforts. "It’s neat that, you know, those of you on the call are a part of protecting the future of our court, and they really appreciate it,” Shackleford said. Later, Shackleford attacked liberal Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan, who supports enforcing ethics reforms on the court, as "treasonous” and "disloyal” and said that an ethics code would "destroy the independence of the judiciary.” The conference call came days after President Biden announced his support for Supreme Court reforms, including term limits for the court’s justices and a binding code of conduct. Shackleford attacked these and other proposals in the call, calling them "a dangerous attempt to really destroy the court, the Supreme Court” led by "people in the progressive, extreme left” who were "upset by just a few cases.” Shackleford and Thomas seem to ignore the fact that her husband’s ethical lapses spurred the calls for judicial reform, particularly the many gifts the justice received from conservative megadonor Harlan Crow that he failed to disclose, including luxury vacations and the renovation of the home where Thomas’s mother lives. Ginni Thomas, for her part, is a longtime conservative activist who played a suspicious role in the January 6 Capitol riot and efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in favor of Donald Trump. This latest revelation seems to indicate that she and her husband have no remorse for their ethically questionable behavior.

February 25Feb 25 I guess in Red States like Oklahoma, Prosecutors like to hide exculpatory evidence from defendants US Supreme Court grants Oklahoma death row inmate Glossip new trial WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Supreme Court threw out Oklahoma death row inmate Richard Glossip's conviction for a 1997 murder-for-hire plot and granted him a new trial, concluding on Tuesday that prosecutors violated their constitutional duty to correct false testimony by their star witness. The justices, in a 5-3 ruling authored by liberal Justice Sonia Sotomayor, reversed a lower court's decision that had upheld Glossip's conviction and had allowed his planned execution to move forward despite his claim that prosecutors wrongly withheld evidence that could help his defense.
February 27Feb 27 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/supreme-court-weighs-straight-womans-reverse-discrimination-claim-rcna193705 Quote The Supreme Court on Wednesday appeared likely to allow a woman to pursue a claim that she was discriminated at work because she is straight. The court's ruling could lower the bar at least in some parts of the country for people belonging to majority groups to bring so-called reverse discrimination claims. Marlean Ames brought a claim against the Ohio Department of Youth Services under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits sex discrimination in the workplace, after a lesbian woman obtained a promotion she was also seeking. She was then demoted, and her old position was taken by a gay man. Ames had worked at the department since 2004. Starting in 2017, she began reporting to a lesbian woman. She was denied the promotion she sought two years later and demoted soon after that. Lower courts, including the Cincinnati-based 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, ruled for the state agency. Ames then turned to the Supreme Court.

March 5Mar 5 This is the first somewhat significant ruling by SCOTUS since Trump took office for a 2nd time. The split was exactly as I had hoped with Barrett and Roberts joining the three liberals. Let's see if Trump complies. I suspect this one is small enough that he will simply comply and push the bigger test down the road. Maybe not though. He is going to defy SCOTUS at some point.
