Raskin: So I want to introduce the Maga Republicans who increased the debt ceiling three times under Donald Trump who gave us a quarter of all the debt between George Washington and Joe Biden, to the constitution, the validity of the public debt shall not be questioned.

Crow sits on the board of AEI, which lobbies against tax hikes on billionaires and writes briefs to Justice Thomas. Crow lavished millions in gifts on Thomas. Is this corrupt? Probably.

Does it have the appearance of corruption? Absolutely.

Justice Thomas needs to resign.

Beef emits 31 times more CO₂ per calorie of food than tofu does. By cooking so many cows, we are cooking ourselves, too. Forgoing steaks may be one of the most efficient ways to reduce our carbon footprint https://t.co/RI556fzQvt

MORE CORRUPTION: Harlan Crow made a $500,000 contribution to Ginni Thomas' Liberty Central, which in turn, paid her $120K a year salary! Clarence Thomas failed to disclose his his wife’s income during this period and the sources of Liberty’s funds were not publicly disclosed.

6. Chairman Dick Durbin said failure to disclose such gifts is inconsistent with any reasonable standard of conduct.

The expulsion of the "Tennessee Three" is part of a much bigger story: As GOP legislatures become cesspools of reactionary rule, they're resorting to increasingly indefensible power plays to hold off the rising tides of public backlash.

This is wrong in so many ways--but will Thomas ever be held accountable? https://t.co/EJLx6UwPDD

@Noam_Praszky King Leopold's Ghost: A Story of Greed, Terror and Heroism in Colonial Africa (1998) by Adam Hochschild, details the horrible Belgian colonialism in the Congo. Also a theme in The Legend of Tarzan (2016). Christoph Waltz plays Léon Rom, likely basis for Kurtz in Heart of Darkness
