The former U.S. Army prosecutor also said she « needs to be investigated by the Department of Justice. »
Former U.S. Army prosecutor Glenn Kirschner said that Virginia « Ginni » Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, « must be subpoenaed » by the House select committee investigating the January 6, 2021 attack against the U.S. Capitol after her text messages with a top Trump administration official were reported this past week. The Washington Post and CBS News together reported on Thursday that Virginia Thomas, a conservative activist, sent multiple text messages to former President Donald Trump ‘s White House chief of staff Mark Meadows ahead of the attack against the U.S. Capitol and Republican attempt to overturn President Joe Biden ‘s Electoral College victory last year. Those messages expressed strong support for efforts to overturn the 2020 election results and advised the then White House official regarding legal counsel Trump should utilize. « Help This Great President stand firm, Mark!!!… You are the leader, with him, who is standing for America’s constitutional governance at the precipice. The majority knows Biden and the Left is attempting the greatest Heist of our History, » she wrote in a November 10 message to Meadows. She also told the White House official that controversial right-wing attorney Sidney Powell should be « the lead and the face » of efforts to overturn Biden’s win. « First of all, Ginni Thomas must be subpoenaed by the January 6 committee to get to the bottom of the influence that she was sort of passing from the Oval Office potentially to her husband, a Supreme Court justice, » Kirschner told MSNBC on Sunday.
