Martin Pengelly: Liz Cheney blocked January 6 scrutiny of Ginni Thomas, book says: Anti-Trump Republican stymied investigation of activist married to supreme court justice, says reporter David Brock
"Liz Cheney, the Republican vice-chair of the House January 6 committee, did “all she could” to protect the rightwing supreme court justice Clarence Thomas and his wife, the political activist Ginni Thomas, by blocking an in-depth investigation of Ginni’s involvement in Donald Trump’s attempt to overturn the 2020 election, a new book says.
In Stench: The Making of the Thomas Court and the Unmaking of America, the reporter and Democratic operative David Brock writes that “two Capitol Hill sources with personal knowledge” revealed a “dramatic truth, which might shock even some jaded Washington veterans not easily surprised by callow examples of power protecting power."

Edward Helmore: JD #Vance admits he is willing to ‘create stories’ to get media attention: Republican vice-presidential candidate defends spreading false, racist claims demonizing Haitian immigrants
The surprise is not that he does it, but that he so quickly admits it.
Count on Senator J. Ding-a-Ling Vance to always say the quiet parts out loud.
