Justice Clarence Thomas: Supreme Court ‘Can’t Be Bullied’ on Roe v. Wade
Breitbart ^ | 05.08.2022 | Ken Klukowski

WASHINGTON, DC — “We can’t be an institution that can be bullied into give you the outcomes you want,” Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas told a gathering on Thursday on Roe v. Wade. “The events from earlier this week are a symptom of that.”

Thomas was speaking to the judicial conference Eleventh Circuit. Each federal appellate circuit is under the supervision of one of the nine Supreme Court justices. A Georgia native, Thomas is circuit justice over that court, which has jurisdiction over Georgia, Alabama, and Florida.

The elephant in the room that no one can ignore is the leaked draft opinion in the Dobbs case, which would overrule Roe v. Wade and return the issue of abortion to voters at the state level.

But Roberts and the Bush loyalists can and will be. Kav, Barret, and Gorsuch will vote as ordered.

I would love to see them send a strong signal by a 9-0 decision against Roe v Wade.

Never having found myself in a situation in which extraordinary courage was required I can't be sure how I'd handle such a situation.For example...that great opening scene in Patton in which he's addressing his troops and he says "some of you guys are wondering if you'll chicken out in battle". I suspect that I would have been one of those guys.

I'll wager that every one of the justices understands that the Rat Party's military wing,Antifa,is fully capable of harming...and fully willing to harm...*anyone* in order to get what they want and to punish anyone who doesn't give them what they want.

I wouldn't bet my last nickel that that this vote will be a decent,moral one.

Bravo Thomas!

BTW, it seems to me the leak and the ensuing demonstrations and terrorist activity were coordinated ahead of time. Does this mean I'm a conspiracy nut?

Justice Thomas, that ship has already sailed, hasn’t it?

When SCOTUS submitted to Deep State and allowed our republic to fall.

Meanwhile...

Exclusive: U.S. Supreme Court's Alito cancels conference appearance after abortion ruling leak

Was there really a conference?

If there really was a conference, were all attendees really free to speak?

Is Alito in reality under house arrest?

Trust but verify....

Clarence Thomas is a man. He’s a leader.

It's a little early for smoking dope, but I guess edibles with coffee are OK.

Being stoned early is not good, but since you are Dutch, I guess it is afternoon in the Netherlands, just take it easy...9-0, WOW!

Our republic is only going to be reclaimed one way now. The sad thing is one side does not recognize it is in a war.

I watched Justice Thomas’s confirmation hearings, and the only power Biden held was to reveal himself as a real ASS!
