McConnell blasts 'clumsy bullying' amid Thomas scrutiny
Source: MSN
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) on Wednesday doubled down on his defense of Justice Clarence Thomas, blasting "clumsy bullying from the political branches" over Thomas's handling of cases related to the 2020 presidential election.
McConnell's comments come after days of criticism in the wake of reports that Ginni Thomas, Clarence Thomas's wife, urged then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows to move aggressively to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
McConnell dismissed calls for Thomas to recuse himself from cases related to the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot as an "inappropriate pressure campaign."
"It has no basis in Justice Thomas's decades of impeccable service on the court. The justice and the entire court should feel free to completely ignore all this," McConnell said.
McConnell added that Thomas "is a great American" and an "outstanding justice."

They were actively involved in an attempt to overthrow the government. Thomas' 1 vote on the near unanimous decision to transfer power to Biden sticks out like a sore thumb. And now the MAGA dipshits are trying to cover it up. What you hiding, Mitch?
Ketanji Jackson,(Joe's choice for the SC)!! What an ASSHOLE!
...the turtle likes him, he can't be worth a shit...
...thomas is married to a woman who wanted to overturn the results of a legitimate presidential election...
...tell me they've never spoken, tell me thomas had no idea what she was up to...
...being a justice and all you would think he would have offered a little legal/Constitutional advice...
...has he ever read our Constitution?
"...inappropriate pressure campaign."...my ass...
...what's inappropriate is the turtle defending this man and white-washing the situation...
...unbelievable...
As we've been saying around here for a very long time, Ditch Mitch.
KY.........
