Prominent Democrats are calling for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from any future case involving presidential elections in the wake of a series of bombshell reports on text messages sent by his wife, GInni Thomas, to ex-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows, urging him to overturn the 2020 election.
Ms Thomas, a longtime conservative activist whose work has often intersected with matters before the court her husband serves on, has long been a lightning rod for criticism from Democrats who charge that her work imperils the reputation of the court because it taints his judicial decisions.
