Never does, they're just spinning their own nonsense for each other

 

The latest ‘hit’ on Justice Clarence Thomas doesn’t even make sense

By David Harsanyi

Most Clarence Thomas hit pieces can’t stand up to perfunctory scrutiny.

 

But the newest doesn’t even make any sense.

 

In a new five-person-bylined article, anti-Supreme Court outfit ProPublica takes a decades-old offhand complaint the justice made about his salary and spins it into a nefarious conspiracy.

 

In 2000, Thomas apparently groused about his pay to “vocal conservative” Rep. Cliff Stearns.

 

(The justice was hardly alone. It was a big issue in the 2000s.)

 

This interaction, we are informed, “set off a flurry of activity across the judiciary and Capitol Hill.”

 

By “flurry of activity,” ProPublica means a single memo in which the possibility of raising justices’ salaries was discussed.

 

Like all SCOTUS smears, the piece is loaded with performative journalistic jargon — “newly unearthed documents,” for instance — meant to make it look like ProPublica is engaging in acts of reporting rather than activism.

 

Thomas, for example, doesn’t merely have rich friends like every other important person in DC.

 

He hangs out with a “coterie of ultrarich men.”

 

Thomas doesn’t attend policy gatherings like every other important person in Washington.

He jets off to “off-the-record” conferences at a “five-star beach resort” and sails on a “162-foot yacht” — alternatively known as a “superyacht.”

Painting completely innocuous and standard behavior as weird and scurrilous is a hallmark of the constant effort to smear Thomas.

Hey, look at Thomas and his “high-end RV” and look at that “elite circle” he’s running with.

 

Oh, sure, they give out scholarships to thousands of kids, but everyone knows what it’s really about: Thomas is a puppet of wealthy white folks.

lynch

/lin(t)SH/

verb

gerund or present participle: lynching; noun: lynching

1.

(of a mob) kill (someone), especially by hanging, for an alleged offense with or without a legal trial.

 

Disgusting that you (and your keeper, Mark "the Race Baiter" Paoletta) would even use the word LNYCH; when Clarence Thomas, living high off right wing dirty money - was NEVER lynched.
