- July 9 | Senator Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) joins All In with Chris Hayes after he and Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland requesting the appointment of a Special Counsel to investigate potential violations of ethics, false statement, and tax laws by Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and the benefactors who have supplied him with undisclosed gifts.
Whitehouse and Wyden write in their letter that the full pattern of Justice Thomas’s omissions of outside income and luxury gifts from his legally required financial disclosures warrant criminal investigation by the Department of Justice.
ABSOLUTELY...Attorney General Garland must investigate Justice Thomas!!!! Thank you Senator Whitehouse. These Justices are NOT ABOVE THE LAW EITHER!!!!!!!
Evidently there was no intention to stop corruption in scotus. Happening years.
Let’s put John Roberts, Samuel Alito, and Clarence Thomas on their future Criminal trial
But they are above the law PLAIN AS DAY
mgarlands a plant.....he'll do nothing.....maybe slow walking to gaslight us ugh
must is carrying quite a load in there. Now, ... should .. Garland should investigate.. that fits for sure. I wish it was must but it's just not.
Thank you Senator White House
Senator Whitehouse is a straight up guy who should run for president in the next election, this election belongs to Joe!
It's one word. Whitehouse.
We shouldn’t have to follow laws made by criminals
The Supreme Court does not write laws.
SCOTUS does not make laws. But their rulings trash, overthrow and reverse laws made by elected legislators. SCOTUS is a law unto itself ... for now.
I agree! Or pay the salaries of criminals!
That's right there is the truth sure shouldn't have to FOLLOW THE LAWS MADE BY criminals
Well done Senator Whitehouse! We the People are behind you and your committee 101 percent. Go for the throat!!!!😊
Lets stop calling it grifts and call them CORRUPTION
Bribes !!
@@jenniferjean”Gratuities” 🙄
Don't we have to call them "tips"?!!!!
Like he has swayed his opinion. Show evidence of opinion swinging. He is a public servant. He is a celebrity. He should write a book too. I will go over how the bill Clinton mafia launders meth money. I am from Memphis please call me a liar you turd. One thing you can not do is polish a turd.
Shame on Justice Clarence Thomas.....and thank you Senator Whitehouse for your clear voice and integrity.....we support you Sen. Whitehouse...please speak on your truth.....L. Martin
YES YES YES. and lets put Whitehouse in the white house
RASKIN/WHITEHOUSE 2028💙💙💙
guys msnbc thinks its like a co equal branhc of govt....all of the ppl youre targetting like trump and thomas are immune....youre lucky they dont do the same thing
In 2028.
There are so many Democrats , who would be great great great , presidential , and Vice Presidetial candidates . But not even one republican , that I could consider , ever .
Lock him up
Sheldon yes! His book need to be audited for his climate change scam.
And his insurrectionist wife.
You START with Thomas
Voting blue big, will help to clear up the mess.
Thank you Senator Whitehouse. Stay on him!
Yes! Please do not give up. Thomas is a crook!
lol its like going after the POTUS its an institution u guys hes immune...u guys make me chuckle evey day...this is some good stuff
@@annjohnson8437 He’s also a huge liar along with his wife, and other SC justices.
Senator you are my hero. Go get him and make him abide by the ethics that all justices should follow.😊❤
Whitehouse for the Whitehouse.
Nominative determinism!🏛🗽💙🌊🌄
Presidential ❤❤❤❤
💯 % yes
Whitehouse for the White House.
Alito,Cannon & Thomas n those other 4 Supreme Court Judges need to be Removed now!!
Corruption is prevalent ❤❤❤
Cannon is not on the supreme Court but she sure is auditioning for it to trump
Gorsuch, Kavanaugh, and Amy Coney-Barrett boot them out!
Thomas wife needs to be included in the Jan 6 investigation.
Absolutely both need to be investigated ASAP
I'm sure something is going on behind the scenes. I hope.
If memory serves the Senate Judiciary Committee has both subpoena and investigative power over SCOTUS. If I were the SJC I’d start by subpoenaing the SC clerks, then their internal chat archive, go back to late 2020-2/2021.
Thomas needs to go to prison for tax fraud.
Uncle Thomas is owned by Jim Crows brother
Oh. SNAP!!! 😂
Excellent!
Go Senator Go!
This is CRAZY for a Supreme Court judge who has received these types of BRIBES! JUDGE THOMAS NEEDS TO BE IMPEACHED!
He should have been investigated years ago!
Thank you for saying that!
Most of the justices should NEVER have been appointed to begin with. Full Stop.
Thank you so much for all that you're doing for America! Thank you so much for all that you're doing for our democracy ❤
I hear them saying , Communism isn't that bad after-all.

Good for you bringing this action. Well done. 👍 accountability. Outrageously shameful. Thank you for all of your work senator WhiteHouse & team.
Attorney General Merrick Garland needs to follow Senator Whitehouse’s request and orders to investigate Clarence Thomas, And the other 5 corrupt judges sitting on their asses and granting favors for bribes and cash. Trump’s corrupt judges deserves jail time like him.
My bet is Alito has more undisclosed gifts that haven't been found out about!!! He is just as corrupt as Thomas!!!
Six out of nine can be bought guaranteed.
This is fantastic ! Thank you Senator Whitehouse 👍
Outrageously shameful. Thank you for all of your work Mr. WhiteHouse. Please be strong and keep at it. Corruption at any level is disgraceful.
Alito lied about everything pertaining to the 'flag fiasco'. Investigate him next, please 😊
Thank God, for Senator Whithouse! Vote Blue!
Amen, Amen, Amen!!!!
I AGREE!!!
Love and respect senator Whitehouse.
Thomas’ rulings were paid for. He cheated on taxes, didn’t disclose “gifts”. His wife was a key part of the coup. He should be in prison.
You are one of my heroes!💙💙💙
Am i
If I can't accept a gift over $100 as an investment advisor representative, how in the world can a supreme court justice accept $250,000 and up to $4,000,000 dollars in gifts. It's absurd.
Oh yeah, Ginni Thomas should be in prison.
Make it illegal that supreme court cannot accept any gifts of any sort. No federal or anyone in the justice system can accept! No gifts or lobbyest gifts to any congress member.
The corrupt ones will still find away to take the money and gifts
It's a $35 cap for Congress and Executive employees, I think?
Even if the corrupt ones still find a way, more clear law gives you a way to hold them accountable when it comes to light. And it usually does eventually.
Please also have the IRS look into all the supreme court judge's Senator and Thank u for everything you do 🙏✝️🙏🇺🇲
Won't happen until 2025, but I hope Democrats clear both Houses. 🇺🇸
The key word in that is 'hope', which if Democrats don't win both houses, politics will remain at a stalemate.
Then amendment 14, section 3 can toss them out. Does Biden have that power now?
What makes these judges think they can willfully and repeatedly violate the rules and laws? I hope the results of an investigation will cast a wide net…
Finally, its only been 20 yrs that he's been receiving these "gifts". Good for you Senator Shelby Whitehouse!!! Good for you. You make this Americsn proud.
Shelton
Clear and present danger! Ghwbush appointed this crook. 35+ years in office. How long has he been accepting gratuities?
Thomas needs a jail cell next to the orange criminal.😡
He will not step down we have to shovel out the court...
Easier, less cost, to send a post card.
Letters take too long re: powder substances.
We need hearings. He won't go but the American will realize how corrupt he is.
Thomas should be in prison!
Why stop with Thomas .
You start with Thomas. Did you read the chart? In the first minute 😉
Look at the chart. I'm speaking of "gifts" undeclared.
You start with the big dawg.....
When did he say stop with Thomas?
Thank you Senator Whitehouse. You and Mr. Durban had a productive day 💙🌊⚖🕶
Gifts or bribes?
Yes.
Senator Whitehouse has been relentless getting receipts , its about time action is taken to hold Thomas accountable. Good work Senator.
Love Senator Whitehouse and Rep Jamie Raskin for exposing the crooked justices and politicians and their benefactors
Raskin/Whitehouse. 2028 💙
Exposing them does absolutely nothing.
@@robinelizabeth386 2024!
But, what good does it do? A letter and a smile. Get something done for god's sake
I think Wyden is helping Whitehouse on the Clarence Thomas investigation.
Keep up the fight, this is way beyond acceptable 👍😎✊
SCOTUS needs a reboot. The last three appointments committed perjury during their confirmation hearings, so it's clear the entire operating system has been corrupted.
While I agree with Sen Whitehouse 100% I have 0 expectation that anything will happen.
Just another example of why Whitehouse is the BEST!!!
THANK YOU. It's a start.
Thank you very much, Senator Whitehouse! You're the man!!👍🏻
If i were a corrupt public figure I would definitely not want Sheldon Whitehouse looking into it. He's a bulldog
What about Ginni?
I'm glad you made this video, I can recall when I was homeless and faced with many things in Life until $75,000 biweekly began rolling in and my Life went from A homeless nobody to a different person with good things to offer!!!!!!.❤️..
That's lovely 🌹if I may ask, How did you come up with so much biweekly?
It's Andrea Sheryl Fox doing she changed my life. A BROKER- like her is what you need.
$_700k and yet still counting on. Andrea Sheryl is the kind of person one needs in his or her life to be honest❤️❤️❤️>>>>
Wow😱 I know her too Andrea Sheryl Fox is a remarkable individual who has brought immense positivity and inspiration into my life. Her unwavering wisdom have been invaluable assets, enriching my journey in countless ways.
I googled about her and yes, she's won my heart. She just gained herself a new client
Thank You and keep up the good work!
Please support democracy, fact finding abilities and holding these crooks and dictator wannabe's, accountable by voting blue all the way down the ballot. Also, don't forget to throw support to Senator Sheldon Whitehouse by subscribing!! Thank you Senator!!
This investigation should have been instituted a year ago.
If Garland does not follow through with this then he needs to be replaced.
Doubtful he reads this. Send him a respectful post card. If JUST a couple hundred thousand did, it would get done. No push back, SILENCE...... Is ...... Complicity 🤭
Garland should've been replaced a long time ago. He's a coward.
He needed to be replaced long ago. He is incredibly useless!
I'm for giving Thomas some sweet sweet justice, but let's not start to sound like MAGA with the replacement and removal. Let's let the process work.
also certain "non profits" like Heritage blank blank needs to be investigated
I love Sen. Whitehouse!
When I watch & listen to him, I get a glimpse of the America I believe in.
Thomas and his wife have made a fortune and it is important to know what they gave in exchange to rich donors and organizations like the Heritage Foundation
His votes are what he gave them.
Thank you, Senator Whitehouse.
I am an American citizen, and I am sick of the corruption in the court, especially with thomas.
Thomas needs to be gone.
Thank you Senators Whitehouse and Wyden for pursuing clarnence thomas for his corruption!!!!!!! He should be behind bars along with his wife. To think he sits in the highest court in the land judging others and taking away our rights is outrageous!!! Take him and his cronies down. He's a traitor to our country and needs to be removed immediately and sent to prison 🤬 the citizens are behind you 💯 percent ⚖️⚖️⚖️
A Special Prosecutor and team, should be appointed. This corruption of Clarence Thomas has gone on for 20 years, if I read that graph properly. That's insane. You and your staffs work is invaluable Senator, so keep it up
Thank you Sentor for taken action, hopefully more will join. Odd are he's not the only Justice who is expecting favors. It quite apparent the way they are favoring the GOP, Project 25, Chevron and Trump. Turning their back on the United States Constitution.
Don't forget to investigate Thomas' piggy traitor wife, Jinni. And all the money Clarence 's masters have given to her. Aren't they a special couple?
I'm pretty sure that Clarence didn't claim $4Million in gifts on his taxes...
Thank you, Sen. Whitehouse. 💙🇺🇲💙
"Very simple language, anyone could understand it." Even a dummy like Clarence Thomas. lol.
Senator Whithouse is a very honorable man and he is doing a great job. NO supervision = Corruption and these Judges should have been supervised a long time ago.. Thomas has been doing that kind of abuses for too long.
Lock him up with Trump
That might be a vacation for him. Throw Ginny in with them too! She needs to be investigated as well!
Senator Sheldon White House for president Jamie Raskin for vice president
Thank you
I so believed you Anita…Long Dong Silver is sickening.
Whitehouse for president in 2028.
We are behind you senator Whitehouse. How can we help?
go to the tallest building in your city and jump off head first on to a thumb tack
No, we are not. We are behind President Trump. Vote MAGA this November for the sake of your children.
@@Andy-ov9qdno more kool aid for you
@@Andy-ov9qd Hahahahahahahhahahh
So what happened with all of the gambling debts that Kavanaugh mysteriously had repaid? I feel like maybe his bar needs to be a little bit taller.
It's time
Investigate John Roberts while you're at it please.
Merrick Garland is the wrong man for the job. The position of Attorney General of the United State has not been this important in 100 years. Fire Garland. The AG position is too vital to be used as a consolation prize for a failed SCOTUS nomination.
There's hesitation on this ? Or Obstruction ?
Senator Whitehouse, your work on the ethics problem at SCOTUS is so very important, turn up the heat.
Senator Whitehouse for President!
YES...Rhode Island has given us a future POTUS.
No we had our primaries he’s not running! Y’all don’t feed the trolls or Russian bots.
@@JacksonStorms-mv7ybNope stop trolling.
Term limits for all branches of goverment...too much greed and too many old men
Thank you, Senators Whitehouse and Wyden! May the probe be successful and justice be done!
Senator Whitehouse, we appreciate and applaud all of your hard work. Thank you so much….. 🌞🌞🌞
You must need to wear waders and a gas mask when you walk down the halls of the Supreme Court because of all the 💩 that is piled high down those corridors!!
Great conversation thank you Senator Whitehouse for continuing to expose the corruption!!!
No way Merick Garland does a damn thing. Does the man even show up for work? What does he actually do all day? Why did he get the job? Why does he still have the job? So many questions.
Thank You Senator Whitehouse! You are an honorable man….and I’ve read you books. Please keep at it!
It's about time, Sen. Whitehouse, wish you the best and keep up the good work you are doing.
Get em Senator Whitehouse! Thank God we have people still fighting for us.
The SCOTUS just ruled bribery is legal...tax fraud is still illegal. Get'em. And Ginny, crow, and all the other benefactors of the the insurrection.
I appreciate your hard work for us, Senator Whitehouse! Thank you!
Merrick Garland is weak and too slow, he will do nothing to charge a justice.
It's something I do blame Biden for. It was clear 2 yrs. ago & Biden should've removed him. But his heart is too big & he felt bad the GOP cheated him out of his Supreme Court seat. So he got this job instead.
Chris and senator, I am ALL IN on this idea
Love you Sen Whitehouse! Don’t back down!
🇺🇸 Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse: a true patriot! 🇺🇸
Thomas has gotten away with some really shady things for far too long. Then there's some other obnoxious Supremes, like Roberts, with his fascist battle flag drama, proudly flying them on BOTH of his luxury homes, not caring a bit about the message it sends the world. He's not the least bit ashamed of it & even had the nerve to get angry at being confronted.
Thank you, Senator Whitehouse‼️
Thank you Sen. Whitehouse! 💪
The highest court should be the most accountable for their actions especially when they are the ones making the rulings that effect the rest of us!
Thank you senator for exposing reality
