He is a man of many great virtues, humility, however, is not one of them. He is pompous, arrogant and able to place his own agenda above the agenda of anyone else or the American people as a whole. He is not a humble person in the least. He is a traitor to the United States and a disgrace to the country. He deserves to be held up on ethics charges and removed from the court.

That's really cool how you refer to him simply as "CT". I wish more people would do that, as it would help to acknowledge how beloved he is and how central he is to our American identity today. Many people in recent months have begun to question his ethics and unfairly criticize him for failing to recuse himself in matters where he was simply trying to cover up for his wife's unfortunate criminal activity. Long live CT, and let's hope he continues to fail to recuse himself and the left will finally leave him alone and respect him for the traitorous turd that he is.

It's obvious to me (a fellow Catholic) that Justice Thomas was guided by the power of the Holy Spirit. His story, his humble, inspiring story, makes divine intervention obvious. God knew his passion and strength of character and is using him for His mission on earth. Justice Thomas' grandfather seems an obvious representation of God's will. He had such a powerful impact on young, energetic Clarence. To me, Justice Clarence should be considered a saint. He represents sanctity in the face of secular hatred and chaos. I feel so much appreciation and love for Justice Thomas and I've never met him. He just exudes faith and honor. He made his life about helping others in God's name. That's the key. You're not a saint because of your charity. You're a saint because you sacrifice yourself for God's will. Thank you Justice Thomas! Thank you.

I guess you feel the same way about the grand cyclops Strom thurmond. If you were paying attention you would know his grandfather would be sadly disappointed in this dude. He has been exposed as a sex offender and that was one of the first things that leap out about this guy. His wife is missing a pint I see by what she texted mark meadows and the people she sent to come up with this crazy conspiracy to go against the people of the united states. Sydney Powell mo brooks. Are you kidding me. I can imagine that weirdo at a gathering approaching people with these kooky diabolic ideas. These people need to be investigated and sent packing.

I don't care if you went to Harvard/Yale etc. Regurgitating things on a test, quoting others to support a written assignment or case study, because you have a great memory and are a great reader does not make you smart..that is the easy part. Those skills will get anyone through even the most challenging Universities. Real intelligence comes through understanding, or the attempt to understand the complexities of the relationships of what exists in the world, something this "introvert", obviously shows no interest in whatsoever. He is an introvert because he cannot function in any unwritten or previously unknow thing/situation/environment/place, i.e. the current world outside his safe spaces. Empathy, logic, creativity ? Completely missing in him clearly. Thomas is a tape recorder, able to play back what he sees, reads and hears but absolutely unable to really understand those things. He isn't smart enough to be in the position he is in and never was smart enough to be in the positions his degrees have allowed him to get..period.
