An Open Secret
March 29, 2022 at 1:30 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard

Jonathan Last: “Here is a secret no one in Washington is willing to say out loud: Ginni Thomas is an idiot. The only reason she was texting the president’s chief of staff instead of being the angry cat lady on Facebook is because she married a man who got himself appointed to the Supreme Court.”

“The Thomases were never a duo of intellectual equals, or a power couple where each member had their own thing going on, and where the merger of the two was like Voltron coming together.”

“This isn’t James Carville and Mary Matalin. Or Norman Podhoretz and Midge Decter. Or Irving Kristol and Gertrude Himmelfarb. Or any number of other famous couples. Heck, this isn’t even Sonny and Cher.”

“No. The Thomases are more like Ivanka and Jared: The senior partner in the arrangement held a position of such high importance that their society scrabbled around to find something for the dimmer partner to do in order to make them feel important. In Jared’s case, that has been destroying newspapers, losing money on real estate, and being tasked with brokering peace in the Middle East.”

1. Get thee to the greatest page! nt

[NotHardly]

56. ...and as usual, the DOJ still belongs to Trump and nothing will come of this... nothing at all

[txwhitedove]

2. Ouch. However, it's obvious idiots can cause great chaos and illegal deeds.

[mopinko]

8. yup. stupid is much worse than evil.

[keithhs28]

45. Stupid people are...

...a security risk to the nation.

[RobinA]

51. Disagree

I would agree that stupid and evil is not as bad as smart and evil.

Trump is stupid, for which we can be profoundly thankful. My fear is a smarter Trump. I know he's out there.

[alterfurz]

55. Against stupidity, even the gods themselves fight in vain. -- Friedrich Schiller

Stupidity is the same as evil if you judge by the results. -- Margaret Atwood

[Gaugamela]

3. This vastly overestimates the intelligence of Clarence Thomas, as well as Ivanka.

I have no doubt Clarence Thomas has found his perfect match.

[lagomorph777]

5. Dim and Dimmer.

[ShazzieB]

24. Ha!

[orleans]

48. lol. perfect description! nt

[SharonClark]

36. Yep, Clarence isn't the brightest bulb, either.

[DENVERPOPS]

41. Ivanka learned

at a Very young age how to get anything and everything she wanted from "Daddie"........

Once Trump got tossed from office, she knew she needed nothing more from him, and is in the process of getting as far away as she can from him......

[msfiddlestix]

43. Agree. Completely. They two are bookends. period

they're both bat shit crazy. Thomas has been able to hide for the most part under the cloak of indivisibility by virtue of his installment on SCOTUS, which Scalia covered for him for the lion's share of his tenure. His opinions are written for him by his clerks probably from the Federalists Society pool.

Ginny? She sure knows how to take advantage of her position.

[RobinA]

52. That Was My Thought

who is "dimmer" in this scenario. Thomas could be a genius for all we know, but I tend to doubt it.

[area51]

54. +1 n/t

[Ray Bruns]

4. I don't think that is a secret.

[global1]

7. I Don't Know That I Believe This....

It seems to me that it is worthwhile for them to try using this excuse to weasel their way out of this controversy and give Thomas an excuse to NOT recuse himself.

[tinrobot]

9. Just part of the campaign to save her husband's job.

Next, we'll hear - "Because she's an idiot, he can't be influenced by her."

Do not fall for it.

[plimsoll]

10. That would mean he's not a real conservative.

Just saying.

[tinrobot]

21. He's not conservative because he married an idiot?

Not sure where you're going with that.

[plimsoll]

26. You said he couldn't be influenced by her because she's an idiot.

Guys like Tucker may not be idiots, but they play one on TV. Doing what they’re told appears to be a core trait, so being influenced by tucker, hannity etc is an absolute requirement.

[gordianot]

30. When I saw Thomas in the 70's hanging around an auditorium looking for young girls.

The term most commonly used at the time he was a goat. It took me some years to associate the lawyer who worked for Attorney General John Danforth as the creepy lurker from a few years earlier. Stupid may be a good description he did not hide his public displays of affection. I instantly knew Anita Hill must be telling the truth Jefferson City is a small town.

[Brainfodder]

11. Not about assholian greed?

[Martin68]

12. It might be more accurate to say Ginni Thomas is a "dangerous" idiot. Her connection to a Supreme

Court Justice makes anything she says and does a great deal more powerful.

[milestogo]

[chowder66]

22. lol.

[FoxNewsSucks]

17. Thats' the problem. Dangerous fucking idiots.

From her to MF45, his crime family, war criminal Bush, Boobert, alleged child-assaulter Gaetz, liar Madison Cawthorn, Margie Traitor Green . . .

the list goes on and on and on. Idiots. Idiots who still attract followers and cause tremendous damage to the rest of us.

[2Gingersnaps]

27. Precisely. TFG is a dangerous idiot. See where that got us?

[3Hotdogs]

14. You mention Jared for his efforts to bring peace to the Middle East. I would point out,

we haven't invaded a Middle East country since 2003.
























Yes, Agnes, its sarcasm.

[peppertree]

18. Although Cheeto NEARLY did in early 2020

His assassination of Gen. Soleimani was brazenly designed to trigger an Iranian response - followed by Cheeto's inevitable Bush-esque late night televised order to attack Tehran (cocaine nose twitches optional).

The obvious timing is, of course, the answer as to why (plus constant pressure from Bibi).

It was no doubt the Pentagon's unwillingness to go along - even after the Iranian retaliatory strike on the U.S. compound in Irbil, Iraq - that averted an all-out war.

[keithbvadu2]

47. Is Jared qualified?

[mountain grammy]

19. So stinking true..every word.

[Hekate]

20. Ouch. That leaves a mark.

[Evolve Dammit]

23. Her "best friend" doesn't think so. They know what each other is all about.

[Joinfortmill]

25. If it wasn't so frightening, it would be hilarious.

[Pepsidog]

28. Gonna Thomas is the White Whale of Washington, swinging that belly for all to see.

[mahina]

31. Fat shaming is unhelpful.

There’s enough here to deal with minus that.

[Pepsidog]

35. I know it's bad, but her entire existence and her exaggerated feelings of importance by virtue of

her husband’s position on SCOTUS offends the hell out of me. That she would take such a prominent role in over-turning our election and texting Meadows about sending people to Gitmo and mentioning “her best friend” really gets me worked up. When the seditionists go low, we go lower. But I get your point and it’s not something I ever do. She is a disturbing looking woman, a real villain, willing to spread fear, hate, and division. Even her nick-name “Gianni” is disturbing. Ginni the big mouth, Q loving blob, is so vile a person that I cannot control myself. She is a giant mass of excrement floating around Washington using her equally vile husband’s position to get rich, flout norms, and destroy democracy. Clarence is just as bad, a traitor to his race, a despicable, intellectually inadequate liar and sexual predator who was the only dissenting opinion regarding a case which involved his wife. He didn’t even have the decency to recuse himself.

[spooky3]

29. She's a useful idiot--RWers can send bribes to CT through her. Nt

[samplegirl]

32. Greatest page

R&K.

[Ford_Prefect]

33. Agree with the idea above that this is part of a smoke screen to keep Thomas on the bench.

[Cha]

34. Big Idiots.. Clarnce too.

💙💛

[Mr. Ected]

37. Our country is in the hands of idiots quite often

Last time I remember them relinquishing control was January 2021. Before that it was January 2009. I guess the bottom line is that America features a great number of idiots who then vote based on familiarity. "I'm an idiot, he's an idiot, therefore he should represent me in Congress".

[Skittles]

38. honestly, that is offensive to idiots

Ginni is a major piece of shit who is married to a major piece of shit

[BlueNProud]

39. I think she's mentally ill.

[DENVERPOPS]

40. I am nearing the belief

that everyone in the Republican Party is mentally ill, not just her an her husband.........

[90-percent]

44. Gee, what do you know?

Frank Zappa wrote a song about Clarence and Ginny.

At least the title. It's an instrumental song. Franks guitar work comes from dedicating his adult life to creating complex yet enjoyable music that been an inspiration my entire life from jr. high to the present. The music of Frank Zappa is the best!

-90% Jimmy

[Elessar Zappa]

58. Zappa's one of the best composers of the twentieth century.

His music is brilliant.

[stollen]

46. I wonder if Ginni is the unidentified speaker

on the mob burner phone. Since she had the Chief of Staff's phone #, surely that would provide her access to Trump.

[Bristlecone]

50. Sounds like a ploy to downplay the severity of the situation

[ck4829]

53. K&R

[griloco]

57. I'm thinking...
