Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court justice, reportedly urged lawmakers to overturn Biden’s win in Wisconsin

The wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas worked behind the scenes to overturn the results of the 2020 election in at least two states, according to The Washington Post, which reported Thursday it had seen emails from Ginni Thomas to Republican lawmakers in Wisconsin she hoped to influence.

Thomas, a Nebraska native who lives in Virginia, also reportedly reached out to nearly 30 GOP lawmakers in Arizona after the 2020 election, looking for their help in keeping former president Donald Trump in office. The Post said her outreach to a pair of Wisconsin lawmakers happened around the same time.

“Please stand strong in the face of media and political pressure,” read emails sent by Thomas on Nov. 9 — less than a week after the presidential election that was won by President Biden.
