The fact that Ginni Thomas, wife ("best friend") of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas , is a certifiable, Christofascist crank is a well- known fact. That she actively sought the intervention of the Malignant Loser's Chief of Staff to overturn the legitimate 2020 election is now added to that fact base.
Here's part of Bob Woodward and Robert Costa's blockbuster reporting in the Washington Post:
Virginia Thomas, a conservative activist married to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, repeatedly pressed White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to pursue unrelenting efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election in a series of urgent text exchanges in the critical weeks after the vote, according to copies of the messages obtained by The Washington Post and CBS News.
The messages — 29 in all — reveal an extraordinary pipeline between Virginia Thomas, who goes by Ginni, and President Donald Trump’s top aide during a period when Trump and his allies were vowing to go to the Supreme Court in an effort to negate the election results.
On Nov. 10, after news organizations had projected Joe Biden the winner based on state vote totals, Thomas wrote to Meadows: “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.”
When Meadows wrote to Thomas on Nov. 24, the White House chief of staff invoked God to describe the effort to overturn the election. “This is a fight of good versus evil,” Meadows wrote. “Evil always looks like the victor until the King of Kings triumphs. Do not grow weary in well doing. The fight continues. I have staked my career on it. Well at least my time in DC on it.”
Thomas replied: “Thank you!! Needed that! This plus a conversation with my best friend just now… I will try to keep holding on. America is worth it!”
"Best friend" is how the Thomases refer to each other (not "Long Dong Silver"?).
The text messages were among 2,320 that Meadows provided to the House select committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The content of messages between Thomas and Meadows — 21 sent by her, eight by him – has not previously been reported. They were reviewed by The Post and CBS News and then confirmed by five people who have seen the committee’s documents.
The fact that Ginni Thomas' damning texts would be included in the documents requested by the House Select Committee would obviously be known to Justice Thomas. He acted accordingly:
The Supreme Court voted 8-1 that Trump couldn't block the Jan 6th committee from getting docs.

The one vote against was Clarence Thomas.
Mark Meadows turned over texts from Thomas's wife Ginni Thomas urging efforts to overturn the election.
What else was afraid would come out?
Unethical: Participating in the decision on a case that would lead to the disclosure of your spouse's inflammatory and incriminating texts.

Unethical and stupid: Not just participating but dissenting 8-1
The Woodward/Costa piece is a fascinating look into the ways key players in the fever swamps surrounding the re-election campaign of the Malignant Loser were operating to (to coin a phrase) steal the election -- specifically the question of Ginni Thomas' influence over her husband's decisions on the Court pertaining to the Malignant Loser. It's almost certain more will come out on the "best friends" corrupt use of their positions.
BONUS: She left no doubt she's a raving loon --
