Five House Democrats led by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York wrote to the US attorney general, Merrick Garland, to demand a federal investigation of the conservative supreme court justice Clarence Thomas, over his acceptance of undeclared gifts from billionaire rightwing donors.
“We write to urge the Department of Justice to launch an investigation into … Clarence Thomas for consistently failing to report significant gifts he received from Harlan Crow and other billionaires for nearly two decades in defiance of his duty under federal law,” the Democrats said.
That’s what Trump and his cult claim they were doing 🤦
Now any politician calling for any sort of action besides voting are going to look like him, and remind people of that. It’s all about perception.
Reality matters more than perception.
And yes, the fascists will perceive it as the same as Jan 6th, but who cares what they think?
