    Wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas sent this text to Trump’s Chief-of-Staff two days after Joe Biden was elected president.

    Ginni said she was inspired by the Litany of Humility.

    That seems unexpected considering the remarks she made after the 2020 election about wanting democrats to be thrown in Gitmo.


    Virginia Thomas - Wikipedia

    excerpt:

    "Virginia and Clarence Thomas married in 1987.[46] They live in Virginia.[47]

    Thomas converted from Protestantism to the Catholic faith in 2002. She was inspired by her husband's devotion of praying the Litany of Humility and participating in the Mass. She credits Justice Antonin Scalia and his wife Maureen for helping Clarence Thomas back into the Church.[48]"

    Ginni can state that God let her know that she has more humility than everyone else would ever understand.

    Tucker Carlson Surprises No One By Parroting New Russian Conspiracy Theory

    excerpt:

    "Fox News host Tucker Carlson on Thursday parroted Russian propaganda linking Hunter Biden to Ukrainian biolabs that was disseminated by the Kremlin to justify its invasion of Ukraine.

    Earlier on Thursday, Russia’s Defense Ministry released a colorful diagram that claims to prove that President Joe Biden’s son was involved in funding a secret U.S. bioweapons plot in Ukraine.

    Several commentators predicted the claim would end up on Fox News, where Hunter Biden theories are ever-popular. Julia Davis, a columnist for The Daily Beast who monitors Russian media, suggested it was crafted with hopes of getting a Fox News feature."

    Russia Ramps Up the Crazy With ‘Biolabs’ Presentation Featuring Hunter Biden

    excerpt:

    "(It was not immediately clear if these were the same documents Russia presented this month at a United Nations Security Council meeting, where they were ultimately deemed “nonsense.”)

    “The scale of the program is impressive,” said Igor Kirillov, head of the radiation, chemical, and biological defense department of the Russian Armed Forces.

    “In addition to the military department, the U.S. Agency for International Development, the George Soros Foundation, and the Center for Disease Control and Prevention are directly involved in its implementation. Scientific curation is carried out by leading research organizations, including the Los Alamos National Laboratory, which develops nuclear weapons under the Manhattan Project,” he said.

    Perhaps hoping for a shout-out from Fox News, Russian defense officials zeroed in on President Biden’s son, claiming the investment firm he co-founded in 2009, Rosemont Seneca, financed the Pentagon’s “military-biological program” in Ukraine."

    Trump returns to Georgia confronting test of his grip on GOP

    excerpt:

    "There are warning signs for Trump. While Walker is marching to the primary with minimal opposition, other races are more complicated. Jones, for instance, is now competing in a crowded congressional primary in which no one may clear the 50% threshold needed to avoid a runoff.

    Perdue, meanwhile, may pose an even higher-profile challenge for the former president. He has struggled to raise money and, in a Fox News poll released this month, trailed Kemp 50% to 39%. If that dynamic holds, Kemp would be within striking distance of winning the primary outright, averting a runoff.

    Trump has been obsessed with this once Republican stronghold since the aftermath of the 2020 campaign, when he became the first GOP presidential candidate to lose the state in 28 years. It could again be central to his political future if he decides to run for the White House in 2024.

    That’s why his activity in the state is especially notable as Trump is essentially rallying voters behind candidates who could go on to play critical roles in certifying future elections in which he’s a participant. He’s already shown an extraordinary willingness to press officials to overturn results he doesn’t like. During his waning days in office, Trump pressured Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to “find” enough votes to overturn Joe Biden’s victory, a conversation that is now the subject of a grand jury probe in Atlanta."

    Trump returns to Georgia confronting test of his grip on GOP

    excerpt:

    "Duncan, a Republican, said Trump’s endorsement isn’t the “golden ticket” it once was, and his group is launching its first 30-second television spot timed to coincide with the former president’s rally. in it, Duncan decries politicians “who would rather talk about conspiracy theories and past losses, letting liberal extremists take us in the wrong direction.”

    “You almost feel bad for David Perdue. That (he’s) walking off the plank that Donald Trump has put out there for him here in Georgia,” Duncan said in an interview. “We’re going to see a rally show up that’s once again going to confuse Georgians and who knows what Donald Trump’s gonna say,” Duncan said.

    “He’s out to settle a score,” Duncan added, referring to Trump, “and that’s no way to keep conservative leadership in power.”

    Despite such concerns, Trump isn’t backing down. Just this week, he threw his support behind the virtually unknown John Gordon to challenge Attorney General Chris Carr. He’s also endorsed Patrick Witt to go up against Insurance Commissioner John King. The Republican incumbents are the statewide officials most closely aligned with Kemp, the leading target of Trump’s ire."

    Man confessed to role in MAGA riot while interviewed after his arrest for domestic assault: FBI

    excerpt:

    "A Washington man admitted to entering the U.S. Capitol during the January 6 riot during an FBI interview following his arrest for domestic assault in Spokane County, court documents show.

    Joshua Edward Johnson, of Spokane WA, was arrested Wednesday in Plano, TX on charges that include illegal entry, disorderly conduct and parading in the Capitol, according to the Department of Justice website on the January 6 riot cases.

    The FBI criminal complaint against Johnson indicates he was identified with the help of three witnesses who were family members. One of them indicated she had helped Johnson book an airplane ticket to D.C. and also identified him in a picture she provided the FBI from the New Yorker, the complaint states. A second member was aware Johnson was in the Capitol on January 6 and a third said Johnson told them afterward."

    Man confessed to role in MAGA riot while interviewed after his arrest for domestic assault: FBI

    excerpt:

    “Johnson was arrested on July 19, 2021, by the Spokane County Sherriff’s Department for a domestic assault. He was interviewed by the FBI in custody. After waiving his Miranda rights, Johnson acknowledged (having posted pictures from the U.S. Capitol as) “#Metrojack” and confirmed his identity by writing his initials on each photograph. Johnson saw the police retreating and rioters advancing toward the entrance to the Capitol; once he reached the door, he saw police and rioters spraying each other with what he believed was mace.

    “Johnson admitted to entering the Capitol and making his way to the floor of a House of Congress on January 6, 2021. (Johnson identified the chamber he entered as the “Congress” side, although the photographs indicate that he was actually in the Senate). Johnson explained he had entered the Capitol Building because he wanted to “stop the steal”; he hoped to find Congress in session and stand there and “be heard” by Congress. He hoped to convince then-Vice President Pence to “do the right thing” and call out the “funky business going on with the votes.”

    MAGA rioter offers the FBI an unusual explanation for why he climbed into the Capitol through a window

    excerpt:

    “He stated that he went inside because the crowd behind him was pushing him into a corner, and the only way for him to leave the area was to go through the window into the building. He admitted to taking photographs while inside and stated that he never heard any commands from law enforcement officers to exit the building. He stated that he walked down the hall, saw people smoking pot, and then decided to leave.”

    His alibi sounds similar to that of state legislator (and Trump buddy) Mastriano from PA who said that he didn't do anything illegal (even though he was already on Capitol property illegally) because police lines at the Capitol retreated as Trump's rioters (including Mastriano) encroached on them, and he didn't actually cross a current physical line of police.


    Mastriano “Police Lines Did Shift,” As Does His Story

    Mastriano "Police Lines Did Shift," As Does His Story

    excerpt:

    "Today Mastriano released a statement about the photos that appear to show him still “hanging around.” after protestors had advanced behind police lines and into the Capitol Building.

    Mastriano said:

    Contrary to the desperate claims of anonymous keyboard warriors, I followed the directions of the Capitol Police and respected all police lines as I came upon them. Even disingenuous internet sleuths know that police lines did shift throughout the course of the day. I followed those lines as they existed."

    "I wasn't there!"

    "We have photos..."

    "It wasn't my fault!"

    Hell of a spotlight to walk into after getting out of the hospital, recovering from Covid.

    Ginni Thomas will have a fringe truther narrative for that also.

    She is expected to say it wasn't Covid. Even if it was, it was secretly planted in him by Fauci who created the virus along with the Ukrainians and Chinese who helped steal the election from Trump.
