The attacks against Clarence Thomas continue unabated.
From The Federalist. Leftist ideologues in the corporate press can’t stop themselves. Ever since their 1991 character assassination of Clarence Thomas failed to stick, they’ve twisted themselves in knots to paint the conservative Supreme Court justice as a moral stain. Their latest attack came in the form of a hit piece in ProPublica on Thursday about his family’s close personal friend Harlan Crow paying tuition for the Thomases’ grandnephew, Mark Martin.

It’s a total nothingburger. The piece itself acknowledges the disclosure laws are narrow and thus don’t even appear to apply to this situation since Martin is not the justice’s offspring. Case closed — or, at least, it should be.
Mark Paoletta, Ginni Thomas’ lawyer and a longtime friend of the Thomases, further elaborated on the payments in a statement. He said Crow had personally recommended Randolph Macon Academy, which Crow himself had attended and financially supported, for Martin before sending the first year’s tuition payment directly to the school. …
Though ProPublica tries to juxtapose these payments with a $5,000 “Education gift to Mark Martin” from different friends, Earl and Louise Dixon, that the Supreme Court justice did disclose — See!! Thomas knew he had to disclose tuition money! — that payment seems obviously different: Crow sent tuition for Thomas’ non-offspring directly to the school; the Dixons sent money to help offset Martin’s education costs to Thomas. …
Long story short, the Thomases didn’t actually violate any ethical standards. …
Also predictable is the propaganda press glossing over details contradicting their favorite narratives and thus missing the real story.
Downplayed by ProPublica’s sorry excuse for journalism are the unsensational facts that Clarence Thomas and his wife took in their 6-year-old grandnephew to nurture and raise him for over a decade until he reached adulthood. …
At its heart, this is really a story about love, sacrifice, and provision — and it obliterates the left’s favorite abortion talking point: that as soon as a baby is born, conservatives no longer care about his or her life. …
Their smear fails in more ways than one. It turns out this pro-life architect of the Roe v. Wade takedown does care about life outside the womb.

I agree with everyone here.. I am so grateful for the example that Justice Thomas presents-, of determination.. strong minded focus.. overcoming hardship.. and standing against evil in the face of the onslaught of tyranny against him.
Lord I pray in Jesus name that Clarence Thomas will not grow weary.. that your guardian angels will surround him.. and you will continue to fill him with your holy spirit that will guide him forward.
Thank you for his example of thoughtful and correct jurisprudence.. thank you for his great mind that is so able to dissect complex issues.. thank you for his example of staying the course through all the years of obtaining the education necessary-,and remaining a man of Honor.
In Jesus mighty name,Amen
Dear Father in Heaven, thank you for covering Justice Thomas and Jenny in your precious blood!! They are your faithful servants from the beginning. Grant them favor, anointing and protection from the fiery darts of the wicked one!! I rebuke the devourer in Jesus name! Stop the relentless news media from reporting lies!!! Expose every liar to the world by sending the light in hidden places. Thank you heavenly Father that YOU ARE IN CHARGE OF THIS WORLD!!! IN JESUS NAME AMEN AND AMEN!!!
Lord, thank you for our brother Clarence Thomas. Thank you for the warriors mantle he wears. Lord his path has not been an easy one, but he has never shirked his duties or compromised his integrity for the sake of a false peace with the enemy. Thank you for helping him now to be “strong and of a good courage “. Remind him, Lord, that he is not alone, and that You’ve got his back. You are the God of justice, and you have called this man to take an uncompromising stand against encroaching judicial tyranny and the political misuse of power. Thank you for strengthening him with might to complete his task, by you spirit. Show him again Lord, that You’re grace is sufficient for whatever the situation requires. You are faithful, and will once again bring him through and into the light.
Amen.
May God protect our Supreme Court Justices and fill them with the knowledge of Truth. May they stand together in unity as they keep their eyes on You.
Praying Ps 27 for Justice Thomas and family:
A Psalm of David.
27 The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the defense of my life; Whom shall I dread?
2 When evildoers came upon me to devour my flesh, My adversaries and my enemies, they stumbled and fell.
3 Though a host encamp against me, My heart will not fear; Though war arise against me, In spite of this I shall be confident.
4 One thing I have asked from the Lord, that I shall seek: That I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the Lord
And to meditate in His temple.
5 For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.
6 And now my head will be lifted up above my enemies around me, And I will offer in His tent sacrifices with shouts of joy; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord.
Amen!
One of my favorite psalms and I agree wholeheartedly with this as an application of protection for this fine supreme court justice. I pray and stand against all the attacks on Clarence and Ginny Thomas, in the powerful name of Jesus, and pray for true justice against those trying to destroy them.

FATHER, I PRAY YOUR PROTECTION FOR CLARENCE THOMAS. HE IS A WONDERFUL MAN OF YOURS !
PLEASE BLESS AND GUIDE HIM CONTIAMEN AND AMEN
No weapon formed against Clarence Thomas. Tucker Carlson or Glen Beck shall prosper. I also include Robert F. Kennedy and Donald J Trump and all the family members. Many influential Christians have a target on their back and I put a Jesus blood line around these people and also psalm 91 to be our daily prayer. The demonic forces are and will continue to fall into their own nets. Booooooooerang to the evil forces in Jesus name. The mainstream media is a laughingstock to most people in America wanting to have a surviving constitutional republic. America is and will continue to be saved.
Thank you for sharing the failure of another attempt to smear a good, honorable man of God.
It would be a great loss to our country if his enemies were able to destroy his position on our highest court. I continue to hold Judge Thomas and his wife Ginny up in prayer.
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8
That article is evil at its very core. Clarence THomas is a man of character and integrity and I will continue to pray for him every day.
I admire Justice Thomas. He has solid family values. Our country so needs family reinforcement. I am praying for his safety and that of his family.
Justice Thomas is an honorable man. Thank you, Sir.
