What do Ginni Thomas' texts mean for Justice Thomas? At the Supreme Court, it's up to him. (unknown)

New revelations of efforts by conservative activist Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, to reverse the 2020 election results ...

But the Supreme Court consists of nine Members who always sit together, and if a Justice withdraws from a case, the Court must sit without its full membership. Of the latest revelations regarding Ginni Thomas, Wheeler said, "It's not misconduct for any judge to have a spouse who is deeply embedded in highly controversial, even outlandish, political activity. Separately and more relevant to the Thomas controversy, a portion of federal law requires justices and judges to disqualify themselves in any proceeding in which their "impartiality might reasonably be questioned." The documents involved in the National Archives dispute that went to the Supreme Court were part of a separate tranche. Roberts contended that recusal dilemmas differ for members of the high court, compared with lower court judges. A Justice accordingly cannot withdraw from a case as a matter of convenience or simply to avoid controversy." Roberts has said the nine consult that aspirational code in their own behavior. After initially endorsing Ted Cruz as a candidate early in the 2016 cycle, Ginni Thomas became a Trump loyalist. She offered thoughts regarding legal strategy, including the use of attorney Sidney Powell, and in one November 10, 2020, text wrote, "Help This Great President stand firm, Mark!!! ... You are the leader, with him, who is standing for America's constitutional governance at the precipice. But nothing apparently came of that and since then, controversies undermining public confidence in the justices' activities have only mounted. But that observation provides only small comfort," he wrote , as President Joe Biden's choice of federal appellate Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson endured partisan distortions of her judicial record and off-bench activities.

Clarence Thomas' Non-Recusal Might Have Also Hidden the Missing Mark Meadows Texts (unknown)

As folks were discussing in comments, yesterday WaPo and CBS revealed damning details about communications between Ginni Thomas and Mark Meadows leading up ...

As it happened, the Committee has been able to identify Meadows comms in box (E) and possibly even in box (F) via his production: things that should have been archived but were not ( this post and this post address the kinds of communications described in Meadows’ contempt referral are in box (E)). It is virtually certain there are a bunch of comms in box (B): stuff Meadows treated as privileged that were not properly archived. Justice Thomas’ decision would have covered everything in the first line: privileged comms that were properly archived, privileged stuff that Meadows didn’t archive, and privileged stuff that got destroyed. In the case of Meadows, for example, we’ve already identified a Signal text that seems to remain in Jim Jordan’s custody but that Meadows may no longer have. But for this post, I’m interested in the how the texts that got turned over or did not relate to Justice Thomas’ decision, on January 19, not just not to recuse from the decision on whether Trump’s invocation of privilege over materials at the Archives, but to cast the single vote to uphold Trump’s privilege claim. Thomas’ participation in that decision may have had the effect of making a decision that would have — if four other Justices agreed with him — had the effect of shielding damning communications involving his spouse. The text exchanges with Thomas that Meadows provided to the House select committee pause after Nov. 24, 2020, with an unexplained gap in correspondence.
