Controversial Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was blasted on Friday for comments made at an event hosted by the foundation started by former Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT).

Thomas warned about "cancel culture" and warned the court could become compromised.

“You can cavalierly talk about packing or stacking the court. You can cavalierly talk about doing this or doing that. At some point the institution is going to be compromised,” he claimed. “By doing this, you continue to chip away at the respect of the institutions that the next generation is going to need if they’re going to have civil society."

"...respect of the institutions..." should be earned I think. And after that Tx ruling letting their vigilante abortion law take effect, good luck with that.
