https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/03/24/virginia-thomas-mark-meadows-texts/Virginia Thomas urged White House chief to pursue unrelenting efforts to overturn the 2020 election, texts show
In messages to Chief of Staff Mark Meadows in the weeks after Election Day, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas called Bidens victory the greatest Heist of our History and told him that President Donald Trump should not concede.
By Bob Woodward and Robert Costa
Yesterday at 5:15 p.m. EDT
Virginia Thomas, a conservative activist married to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, repeatedly pressed White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to pursue unrelenting efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in a series of urgent text exchanges in the critical weeks after the vote, according to copies of the messages obtained by The Washington Post and CBS News.
The messages 29 in all reveal an extraordinary pipeline between Virginia Thomas, who goes by Ginni, and President Donald Trumps top aide during a period when Trump and his allies were vowing to go to the Supreme Court in an effort to negate the election results.
On Nov. 10, after news organizations had projected Joe Biden the winner based on state vote totals, Thomas wrote to Meadows: Help This Great President stand firm, Mark!!!...You are the leader, with him, who is standing for Americas constitutional governance at the precipice. The majority knows Biden and the Left is attempting the greatest Heist of our History.
Ginni Thomas, in that interview, also acknowledged that she had attended Trumps Stop the Steal rally at the Ellipse near the White House on Jan. 6, but said that she left early because it was too cold and that she did not have any role in planning the event.

(7,834 posts)1. I sense a 2 part lie.
1. No part in planning the event
2. No plan to participate . (Not said out loud but its there nonetheless.)
Then why was she there ? Beer ?

(30,613 posts)2. Definitely Part 1 is a lie. The texts show that.
Part 2 is sort of subjective I guess. Doesn't really matter.

Who knows? This is getting too difficult to follow, but she's in this neck deep. She certainly had far more to do with it. Texting the President of the United States' Chief of Staff and telling him what she thinks the president should do? Yeah, no part indeed
