If Thomas determines that Trump is disqualified from running due to the 14th amendment, it could have significant legal repercussions for his wife, who was an active participant pushing for the overturning of the 2020 election.
In the case the led directly to the uncovering of the many (and batshit crazy) communications between Ginni and indicted and cooperating witness Mark Meadows, Thomas was the only justice who ruled in favor of Trump’s efforts to keep those and other J6 communications protected and out of the public record. Not even Alito sided with Trump.
So if you don’t think this constitutes a conflict, please explain your reasoning.
Oh, and please stay on topic. I’m not interested in hearing about other SCOTUS conflicts. If Trump is disqualified for participating in an insurrection, it’s quite possible Ginni could face criminal charges. I believe that makes this case unique.
We also don’t need to debate the merits of the case itself as that has zero impact on the issue of recusal.
