January 6 committee members may subpoena Justice Clarence Thomas' wife

Virginia Thomas' stunning exchanges with former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows have the attention of the January 6 committee. Four people close to the committee told CBS News that several members want Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas' wife, who goes by Ginni, to talk to the committee and will issue a subpoena if necessary.

At least two committee members, the people said, were making private calls to colleagues on Friday, encouraging more discussion of a subpoena for Ginni Thomas. But there's not yet any consensus on the committee about whether to move forward, they said.

Committee members will return to Washington next week.

The extraordinary text messages show her encouraging President Trump's top aide to fight to overturn the 2020 election. Citing Trump allies who were gathering evidence of alleged fraud, Thomas wrote Meadows on November 19, saying, "Make a plan...and save us from the left taking America down."

FFS stop walking on eggshells with these insurrectionists.

The GOP has no problem dragging people for much less.

Weasel words that scream for actions. I’m all for prudence and due diligence, but ENOUGH!

As the salon says the dems need to treat this attack on democracy with the urgency it deserves. Forget the political optics and do what is needed.
