Don from Los Angeles called in to my SiriusXM show to tell me that it was a “waste of time” to call for the impeachment of Supreme Court justice Clarence Thomas because Republicans would never allow it.

“This is a full blown crisis of legitimacy for the Supreme Court. Ginni Thomas helped organize a coup attempt against the US government and Justice Thomas abused his office to try to cover it up.” — ⁦@Zac_Petkanas⁩ former aide to Harry Reid

I agreed, but said that didn’t make it a waste of time to focus on it. In fact, I said, it is a “gold mine” for Democrats to use against the GOP. This is the most corrupt thing we have seen with regard to the Supreme Court, and yes, we need to tie Republicans to it.

Anyway, it got pretty heated — or rather, I should say I got pretty heated — because it outraged me so much that he suggested we should just dismiss this. If it were a liberal justice whose was texting the president’s chief of staff to overturn an election, the GOP would be going ballistic.

Some will say I had little patience here — and the truth is, I didn’t.

Listen in and let me know your thoughts.
