Justice Clarence Thomas admitted to Sibley Memorial Hospital in Washington Friday night, complaining of flu-like symptoms. Sunday night, the court said he had been diagnosed with an infection and was being treated with intravenous antibiotics.

Justices decide for themselves how much health information they will release to the public, and there has been no additional guidance.Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. announced at the start of Wednesday’s arguments that “Justice Thomas is unable to be present today” but that the absent justice would participate in deciding the cases he has missed, relying on briefs and transcripts of the hearings.

The court’s only African American justice, Thomas was nominated to take the seat of Justice Thurgood Marshall, who was the court’s first Black justice., whom President Biden has chosen to replace Breyer.

He never should have been on the bench, anyone who watch the Hill testimony knew this man was guilty, now we have two sexual offenders sitting on the bench, meanwhile the GOP wants to talk about child pornography 24/7 but ignore Gaetz literally caught sex trafficking a minor.

I don’t envy these Supreme Court justices. Especially the old ones, literally half the country waiting for you to die, that’s scary.

Comfortably resting at home, re-watching Long Dong Silver.

May he get exactly what he deserves

PRAYERS DOWN ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Weird that he suddenly believes in a “right to privacy”

Hope he pulls through. Into hell.

Is he vaxxed?

Wow the comments here are truly disgusting.

Time to retire.

NOW is the time for this Justice to retire, to pave the way for new ones with better knowledge of the Constitution & less overt-biased, as this Judge has been exhibiting since 1992. Next justice – Woman & Native American. Bcz women r more level-headed & mature than men.

Maybe an oppurtunity for POTUS to name another nominee to SCOTUS. 🤞🤞 LeaderMcConnell would go nuts.

Thoughts and prayers

Is he critical yet?

Prayers for Clarence Thomas

His absence improves the court.
