@Nonilex He’s the worst. Luckily he’s not the only worst, I guess.

Sigh.

Ok, Clarence Sale, tell us what lies you've endured. Specific quotes, no generalizations.

@Nonilex Thomas is no different than GOP politicians going on right-wing media where their claims are not subject to scrutiny.

If the extensively-researched articles are lies, he could bring receipts, debunk the claims if possible, and face questioning from real journalists, rather than giving speeches to deferential audiences.

Both of these POSs are traitors to democracy and insurrectionists intent on overthrowing the government. Subpoena him to testify in Congress. Send Leo's subpoena to DOJ for prosecution. These scumbags are not above the law. Bring Ginny in too. Remove her immediately from any government board and organization. Enough.

@Nonilex if they’re lies, he should sue for slander, but then he’d have to prove they’re false

targeted the maelstrom he has faced …since news broke last year of travel & real estate deals paid for by donor , & since he has faced calls to recuse himself from cases related to the 2020 election because of his wife’s involvement w/efforts to block Joe ’s victory.
“What you are going to find, especially in Washington, is that people are going to pride themselves on being awful … It’s a hideous place.”

Thomas has been in Washington for decades, taking pride in making the US a hideous place.

@Nonilex He must, therefore, be very proud of his awful wife.

@Nonilex HMM…WELL, IF IT’S SO AWFUL MAYBE HE SHOULD RESIGN OR RETIRE.

Well ,considering his past,I can't say I'm surprised.
Maybe he can take his next yacht cruise in the Red Sea or even better,the Gulf of Aden.🤔
