The U.K.'s weekend celebration of inbreeding is over but we have our own problems, ie. the votes to impeach and remove Clarence Thomas and Chief Justice John Roberts (Thanks again Chucky) just aren't there. That is the way of Washington. Even if, in some fantasy universe, the House voted to impeach any of these black robed sleazeballs, you'd need 67 votes in the $enate to give a so-called justice the boot. 67? Fat chance. Plus one Dem would be Manchin and, whatever Clown Suit Sinema is, she ain't about to stand up for any law or degree of morality itself, so... Hey, why not imagine 69 potential votes or 75? Do I hear 80? Knock yerself out!
The only other legit avenue to solve this situation is a complete DOJ investigation of the black robed perps followed by indictments, trials, convictions, etc. Good luck with that ever happening. Slow process but I'd be willing to wait. In 25 years, I'll be pushin' 100 years old, so that's something to live a long life for, right? Still, even without true justice, it's good to know how corrupt the Roberts Court is. And, drip, drip, drip, we are finding out and it's like the so-called Supreme Court is some court in a cheesy 1972 mob movie. Bought, sold, owned, and operated. As for Thomas specifically, I can only hope that we'll soon be hearing about some billionaire who's been supplying him with live goats and sheep or at least those very special movies he reportedly has a predilection for.
Here's where we were on the Clarence Affair as the weekend started. Well, some of it anyway:
Thomas enjoys afternoon tea in the Hitler Garden of Harlan Crow.
Harlan hands out free yacht vacations. Here ya go, Clarence. Always good to have an inside man!
Other nice trips, too? Luxury vacations! How many others? Apparently, being a justice is like winning "The Price Is Right" every damn day! "Hey Clarence! Come on down!!!" A Supreme Court Game Show with 9 justices at the big desk with a giant flashing Price Is Right sign in back of them, lots of horns and buzzers, too! Enough to give you a seizure. And each justice with a snappy array of sound effect buttons.
Harlan pays the school tuition of Thomas's grand nephew. I can see it now: A country where billionaires select young boys and girls to groom as future Nazi judges, all expenses paid for life. Was Amy Coney Barratt one? Hey, I'm just asking the question.
Harlan buys a house, the house of Clarence's mommy.
Harlan renovates the house and its neighborhood. Has this ever happened to you?
Mommy dearest still lives in the house, now rent free. Just pays the property tax, maybe. Not sure what the arrangement might be for groceries and cable TV.
Billionaire anti-voting rights advocate Leonard Leo, former Trump right hand crackpot Kellyanne Conartist Conway, Clarence and his wifey seem to have some sort of money laundering scam going on. Expect more on that this week but here's a quick breakdown: 1) Leo's Judicial Education Project paid Ginni Thomas, in 5 digit numbers. 2) Leo's splendid organization filed brief opposing key provisions of the Voting Rights Act. 3) The Price Is Right Court struck down the key provisions. Ta-daaah!
To use a legal term, some people might say "quid pro quo." Nice Supreme Court we've got here. This just gets better by the day! The best justice money can buy just got even bigger! Stay tuned! These assclowns hold their hands out for tips more than hotel bellhops, a job they are more suited to do.
