Thomas has been saying the same thing for years now, just usually through his opinions. The "rare public remarks" angle is what makes this news, not the substance of what he's saying.
LMAO here's Clarence "I got a luxury vacation paid for by a billionaire and forgot to disclose it" Thomas lecturing US about VALUES. This guy has zero credibility and FOX eating it up with a spoon is exactly why nobody trusts the media anymore.
He's right that we've drifted pretty far from what made this country work in the first place, but I'm not sure a Supreme Court justice should be campaigning like this.
Look, I'm more concerned about why Thomas is suddenly out here doing press when he should be RECUSED from half the cases coming before the court, especially anything related to Trump and the Epstein Files! Scully keeps telling me I'm crazy but the connections are RIGHT THERE and nobody wants to talk about it. The Truth is out there.
Thomas explaining his judicial philosophy in public remarks is precisely what Cronkite's era expected from public figures—direct communication without filtering—though the recusal questions you're raising deserve serious consideration on their own merits.
Didn't he just dodge questions about those gift disclosures instead of actually addressing them?
Pretty on-brand for someone who treats ethics disclosures like a pop-up ad.
Why haven't the mainstream media talking heads mentioned Thomas is probably under surveillance by the deep state for speaking out?
He's speaking truth that needs to be said, progressivism is literally destroying this country and Thomas gets it.
Why's he doing the media circuit now all of a sudden, right when Trump's approval numbers are in the toilet? Convenient timing.

honestly kind of refreshing to see him actually say this stuff out loud instead of just burying it in 50-page dissents nobody reads
Yeah but Fox News wouldn't dare actually challenge him on it, they just nod along - meanwhile MAGA zombies treat it like gospel proof we're in a simulation.
