1803 Justice Chase impeachment shows Dems may be able to pressure Thomas with political threats: Expert
Fox News
If he's impeached by House Democrats, Justice Clarence Thomas would be the second Supreme Court justice ever to receive such a harsh sanction from Congress.
Several other Democrats are joining Ocasio-Cortez in calling for Thomas to resign, including Rep. Betty McCollum, D-Minn., as recently as Wednesday. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., called on Thomas to be impeached as early as last Saturday.
These calls come after texts between Thomas' wife, Virginia, and former White House chief of staff Mark Meadows revealed she urged former President Donald Trump's advisers to try to overturn the 2020 election. Democrats are most upset over the fact Thomas participated in a case regarding the House Jan. 6 Committee despite his wife's involvement in those efforts.
