Finally hearing more details about Supreme Court Justice Thomas's wife and her involvement with Jan 6...
I think what disturbs me the most about that is what it says about the circles she (and by implication, a lot of the powerful people in DC) run in.
It reminds me of the frigging powerpoint presentation that was going around.
Like... It sounds overly dramatic to say this given how media seems to be downplaying it, but refusing to accept the results of an election (without any real evidence, and despite what they all tell themselves there wasn't any) goes against everything America was built on.
Its not much of an exaggeration to start throwing around words like 'treason'.
Except these complete and utter fools know so little about America that they've apparently convinced themselves they can undermine our institutions, undermine law and order, and do so completely in the clear. Like, they apparently had so little awareness about the illegality of their actions that they had powerpoint presentations, and sent texts in the clear. (The maddening thing is that they might never face consequences for threatening to destroy the best parts of America. That, and how they don't even realize that's what they're doing.)
Ginni Thomas might not be any different from the other misguided fools who'd rather believe BS than accept reality, but it's extremely disturbing to see that behavior in someone I assume is well connected.
Just how much of a bubble are these people in?!?
And how the hell do we fix things when those best positioned to do so are living in a fantasy land?
