January 6 Committee Wants to Talk to Ginni Thomas

June 16, 2022 at 11:54 am EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS), chairman of the House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection, said the panel plans to invite Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, to be interviewed by the panel, the Washington Post reports.

“The conservative activist was not originally expected to be a focus of public hearings this June. But people involved in the investigation say newly obtained email correspondence between her and White House lawyer John Eastman have revealed that her efforts to overturn the 2020 election were more extensive than previously known.”
