Raskin Insists Justice Thomas Recuse Himself from Trump's 14th Amendment Cases

Democratic Congressman Jamie Raskin has called for Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from any rulings related to Donald Trump's eligibility for the 2024 presidential election, citing the involvement of Thomas's wife in Trump's "big lie" about the 2020 election. Raskin's comments come as the Supreme Court prepares to review state rulings from Maine and Colorado that have barred Trump from the primaries under the 14th Amendment's insurrection clause. Raskin, who led Trump's second impeachment and served on the committee investigating the January 6 attack, expressed concerns that Trump would attempt to overturn the election results again if he loses. Meanwhile, allies of Trump argue that the decisions to disbar him are politically motivated, with some Republicans defending Trump's right to be on the ballot.
