Probably the only one holding up the side will be Justice Clarence Thomas.

In addition to being brilliant and dedicated to the US, he has his past. He was brought up in segregated Savannah and went to Catholic school. He got up at 4:30 every morning to help his grandfather, who brought him up. This was after his father abandoned the family and his mother ended up as a drug addict and also abandoned the family. It was his nun at the school who told him that he was very smart but he had to get his backside in gear and do his schoolwork better, regardless of his family problems. He said, “Yes, Sister,” and here he is now.

He’s an amazing person and a great, courageous jurist.

I sure hope Justice Alito follows suit. He has been an under the radar solid conservative Justice .
