John Oliver offering Clarence Thomas $1M a year to resign from Supreme Court - Either Thomas will just ignore or not hear it due to the sound of screeching feminists or wipe his ass with the contract like toilet paper

John Oliver offering Clarence Thomas $1M a year to resign from Supreme Court​

Comedian and “Last Week Tonight” host John Oliver is urging Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to resign, offering him $1 million per year to do so.

Oliver railed against the conservative justice during the 11th season premiere of his weekly show Sunday, saying Thomas had made the lives of Americans “demonstrably worse” and promising him a brand new luxury recreational vehicle if he agrees to step down from the high court.

“Lot on your plate right now. From stripping away women’s rights to hearing Jan. 6 cases, you definitely shouldn’t be hearing two potentially helping rollback decades of federal regulations,” he said.

“So that’s the offer. $1 million a year, Clarence. And a brand new condo on wheels. And all you have to do in return is sign the contract and get the f‑‑‑ off the Supreme Court,” Oliver added. “Talk it over with your totally best friend in the whole world. Because the clock starts now. Thirty days, Clarence … Let’s do this!”
The comedian’s bit was first highlighted by Mediaite.

Thomas has come under scrutiny from media outlets and ethics watchdogs in recent months after reporting by ProPublica found he had failed to disclose luxury trips and other benefits he received from conservative billionaire Harlan Crow.

“I think you’re thinking, what would my friend say if I take this offer? Will they judge me as they sit in their boardrooms and mega yachts and Hitler shrines? Will they still treat me to luxury vacations and sing songs about me off their phones?” Oliver said. “Well, that’s the beauty of friendship, Clarence. If they’re real friends, they’ll love you no matter what your job is. So I guess this might be the perfect way to find out who your real friends actually are. ”

I once had a dream where John Oliver was doing call-ins and I got on and started screaming “Nigger” and he freaked out so bad it induced a seizure.

It’s one of my greatest dreams tbh, even better than the one where I was blown in the backseat of a limo by three big titty Muslim women.
 
Isn't this literal felony territory to seriously suggest something like this? Not to mention the idiocy of putting it in writing. Any attempt to bribe a supreme court justice to do anything sounds like a good way to end up in prison. He couldn't accept such an offer even if he wanted to without risking prison himself, and good luck claiming whoever biden appointed to replace him is legitimate

The dumbshit should be jailed for this. and pulling it in an election year no less. Does he know how this looks? Especially for the democrats? Trumps campaign would have a fucking field day with that. I can see it now - democrat bribes black supreme court justice for millions of dollars to resign so biden could replace him with his own much younger appointee so trump can't appoint another justice of the guy decides to retire if trump wins in 2024

Totally a good look for the dems there

I would gladly amnesty 1 million Mexicans if it meant this rat-toothed angloid was packed in a crate and put on a slow boat back to his island never to return.

It's a dead and pulped horse at this point but...

It's (D)ifferent, when they do it.
 
Harlan Crow should sue Oliver. His "Hitler shrine" has been extensively documented as not being a Hitler shrine. It's a collection of memorabilia of uniforms, equipment, etc., from wars dating back to at least the Civil War, and portraits and busts of famous historical figures, that kind of stuff. WW2 German stuff is a small part of said collection

He could barely even name two "bad" things that Thomas did, and that's if we charitably include "returning abortion law to the state level like it should have stayed in the first place" as bad. His second example of eeeevil fascism was...due process.

This makes him look so bad I have to wonder if it's part of his contract. The network needs an excuse to replace him with someone even less talented and even more obedient so they're forcing him to torpedo what's left of his sad, pathetic career.
