Podcast appearances and mentions of Clarence Thomas

The first day of Trump's civil trial began yesterday and there was plenty of crying from the right. Clarence Thomas actually did something right only to then backtrack again. Michigan Republicans are working to gut voting rights. Millions of children are losing child care after federal funding expired. Texas is struggling to put an officer at every school.

The guidance — which originated from the White House National Security Council (NSC) — was revealed in a Department of Energy (DOE) memo issued internally to agency staff on Sept. 15 and obtained by Fox News Digital. The memo was authored by Deputy Secretary of Energy David Turk who outlined travel restrictions and stated officials are required to obtain approval from the NSC before attending any global energy engagement. "This guidance sets out a presumption that agencies and departments will pursue international energy engagement that advances clean energy projects," Turk wrote in the memo. "It also outlines a process for seeking limited exceptions to pursue carbon-intensive engagements on a justified geostrategic imperative or energy-for-development/energy access basis." "The guidance rules out any U.S. Government ‘engagement related to unabated or partially abated coal generation,’" he continued. "Carbon-intensive international energy engagements are those 'directly related and dedicated to the production, transportation, or consumption of carbon-intensive fuels that would lead to additional greenhouse gas emissions.'" According to the memo, carbon-intensive fossil fuels include coal, oil and natural gas. In addition, the memo notes that the guidance became effective in November 2021 and applies to all international energy engagements. Turk issued a separate memo in early April 2022, which first outlined how the DOE would implement the NSC guidance and stated that energy engagements that promote carbon-intensive fuels may only be exempt if they advance national security or are essential to support energy access in vulnerable areas. Turk's September memo updated that guidance, stating that for all future engagements, "Departments and Agencies are required to submit exemption justifications to the NSC and receive NSC concurrence before proceeding with a covered engagement." The DOE referred Fox News Digital to the NSC, which didn't respond to multiple requests for comment. Since taking office, President Biden has pursued an aggressive climate agenda, seeking to boost green energy technologies like solar and wind while curbing domestic reliance on fossil fuels like those listed by the administration as "carbon intensive." Biden has issued federal goals to ensure 50% of U.S. car purchases are zero-emissions by 2030 and that the power sector is carbon-free by 2035. However, vehicles with internal combustion engines (gasoline-powered), make up more than 99% of all cars in the U.S. and about 99% of new car sales, according to J.D. Power. And approximately 60% of electricity in the U.S. is generated from fossil fuels, mainly natural gas, while 17% is produced form wind or solar power. As part of his agenda, Biden and senior administration officials have traveled to global energy conference to boost green energy development. And officials have largely been absent from global fossil fuel summits like the World Gas Conference, which former Energy Secretary Rick Perry attended during the Trump administration. The Biden administration also opted against inviting oil and gas industry representatives to the White House Methane Summit in July. https://www.foxnews.com/us/judge-orders-new-york-dole-out-nearly-half-million-legal-fees-nra-supreme-court-victory Judge orders New York to dole out nearly half a million in legal fees to NRA after Supreme Court victory A New York judge ordered the state to pay nearly half a million dollars in legal feels to the National Rifle Association (NRA) after the gun rights group won a major case at the Supreme Court. In a case decided last summer, the Supreme Court ruled that a New York public carry licensing law was unconstitutional and that the ability to carry a pistol in public was a constitutional right guaranteed by the Second Amendment. The NRA was a party in that case, New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, and last week a New York judge ordered the state to pay $447,700.82 in legal fees. "The NRA regards the $447K award in the NYSRPA V. Bruen case as a pivotal victory, a symbol that justice is definitively on our side," Michael Jean, NRA’s director of the Office of Litigation Counsel, told Fox News Digital in a statement. "This triumph in Bruen has fortified the Second Amendment in an unprecedented manner, and we continue our unrelenting fight to uphold our rights and challenge those who endeavor to infringe upon them," he added. Jean noted, however, that the payout "only scratches the surface" and covers "merely a third" of the group's legal expenses. Jean thanked the generosity of "devoted NRA members" that helped to cover the brunt of the legal fees for the case, noting that "New York refuses to fully compensate." Before the high court weighed in, the standard for carrying a weapon required an applicant to show "proper cause" for seeking a license, and allowed New York officials to exercise discretion in determining whether a person has shown a good enough reason for needing to carry a firearm. Stating that one wished to protect themselves or their property was not enough. "In this case, petitioners and respondents agree that ordinary, law-abiding citizens have a similar right to carry handguns publicly for their self-defense. We too agree, and now hold, consistent with Heller and McDonald, that the Second and Fourteenth Amendments protect an individual’s right to carry a handgun for self-defense outside the home," Justice Clarence Thomas wrote in the court's opinion, referencing two previous gun cases. "Because the State of New York issues public-carry licenses only when an applicant demonstrates a special need for self-defense, we conclude that the State’s licensing regime violates the Constitution." Thomas noted that the state statute does not define what "proper cause" means, and that courts had ruled that the standard was met by people who showed a "special need for self-protection." Following the court's decision New York legislators immediately passed the Concealed Carry Improvement Act, which prohibits carrying a gun in "sensitive areas," such as stadiums, houses of worship, museums, parks and other public places; imposes revised record-keeping and new safety requirements on retailers; and mandates background checks on all ammunition purchases. Gun retailers immediately appealed to the Supreme Court in January to stop that law from going into effect while the litigation proceeds, but the high court rejected their bid. "We are challenging the ability of the state of New York to target dealers in firearms in the lawful stream of commerce, to put them out of business, which is what the new laws will do," Paloma Capanna, the lead attorney for the New York gun retailers, said. "So it really was unfortunate to see that we couldn't get any emergency temporary injunction against those laws." https://bongino.com/former-kamala-harris-adviser-who-doesnt-appear-to-live-in-california-picked-to-fill-late-dianne-feinsteins-seat Former Kamala Harris Adviser Who Doesn’t Appear to Live in California Picked to Fill Late Dianne Feinstein’s Seat So eager were Democrats to find a replacement for the late Dianne Feinstein’s Senate seat that they apparently didn’t even bother to pick someone living in California. According to the Washington Examiner: The appointment of Laphonza Butler to become California's newest senator is already raising some eyebrows as she appears to be registered to vote in Maryland with an address in that state. Registration records indicate that Butler lives in Silver Spring, Maryland, with her mailing address the same as her residential. She registered as a Democrat as of Sept. 12, 2022. Butler is the president of EMILYs List, the self-described "nation's largest resource dedicated to electing Democratic pro-choice women to office," and a longtime leader in California before her move to Maryland. On Sunday night, the newest California senator's biography on the EMILYs List website listed that "Laphonza grew up in Magnolia, MS, and attended one of the country's premier HBCUs, Jackson State University. She lives in Maryland with her partner Neneki Lee and their daughter Nylah." As of 7 a.m. Monday, the organization has removed the line that she lives in Maryland. Butler was formally Kamala Harris' 2020 campaign adviser. As radio host Dan O’Donnell noticed in real-time, Butler removed part of her biography on her Twitter account that listed Maryland as her location. Similarly, The Spectator’s Matt Foldi found that Butler’s LinkedIn page also listed her location as Maryland. Yet, merely hours after Foldi’s post, Butler’s location according to LinkedIn changed to the “Los Angeles Metropolitan Area.” Before we wrap up today… how about a little on this day in history?

Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Ryan Busse, a former gun-industry executive turned gun-safety advocate, who is now running for governor in his home state of Montana. As the right to bear arms for domestic abusers is set to be argued at SCOTUS this term, Dahlia and Ryan discuss how gun culture has been radicalized in order to… sell more guns. They also examine how that radicalization has reached the Supreme Court, and threatens our safety, and our democracy.  Next, Dahlia is joined by Alison Block MD, a family doctor and abortion provider who is also executive producer and host of The Nocturnists podcast's Post-Roe America season. The season lifts the voices of healthcare workers and abortion providers around the country, scrambling to survive in the confusing legal landscape created by Dobbs. The conversation highlights the impossible bind for red state abortion providers forced to choose between caring for patients and criminalization, and how providers in neighboring states are trying to keep up with unquenchable demand for care.  In this week's Amicus Plus segment, Dahlia is joined by Slate's Mark Joseph Stern to discuss why they never ever want to go to the all-male rich dude Lord of the Flies camp that is Bohemian Grove, why it's pretty shocking that Justice Clarence Thomas did, and how the latest Propublica reporting shows the scheme in sharp relief: interest groups founded and funded by billionaires wanted to end the regulatory state, and they found a justice ready to change his mind and do just that. Dahlia and Mark also discuss why the abortion pill banning Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk is all of a sudden so worried about misogyny.  Sign up for Slate Plus now to listen and support our show.  Dahlia's book Lady Justice: Women, the Law and the Battle to Save America, is now out in paperback.

Dahlia Lithwick is joined by Ryan Busse, a former gun-industry executive turned gun-safety advocate, who is now running for governor in his home state of Montana. As the right to bear arms for domestic abusers is set to be argued at SCOTUS this term, Dahlia and Ryan discuss how gun culture has been radicalized in order to… sell more guns. They also examine how that radicalization has reached the Supreme Court, and threatens our safety, and our democracy.  Next, Dahlia is joined by Alison Block MD, a family doctor and abortion provider who is also executive producer and host of The Nocturnists podcast's Post-Roe America season.

If Senator Menendez is as corrupt as alleged, lock him, we're not Republicans. Speaking of corruption, we learned Monsanto sell-out Clarence Thomas has gone on even more outrageously expensive getaways by for by likes the Koch Brothers and other conservative oligarchs. Trumpkin Bedding Czar Mike Lindell was incredibly peeved over the release of his "lumpy pillow" deposition. Freakishly stupid Lin Wood will be a witness for the prosecution in the fake-electors case in the Peach State. On September. 22, 1862, President Lincoln set forth the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation, declaring all slaves in Confederate states should be free. Fascist Louisiana piggies have been holding suspects and torturing them at a black site. The Feds of Venezuelas took back a prison held by a cartel that had turned the penal colony into a resort featuring a nightclub, a pool, and a petting zoo. Keeper of the Kraken, Sydney Powell blathered complaints about having her TSA privileges yanked over her racketeering case in Georgia. A Delta flight headed for Spain had to turn around one hour into the journey due to exceptionally violent diarrhea.

So now we're all standing largely naked before the coming onslaught of disinformation that is sure to come along with the 2023 and 2024 elections: the lies will be coming fast and furious. Are Trump's GOP opponents in an "Arm's race to out-extreme & out-cruel each other? Shutdown Watch! McCarthy hands the gavel to Gaetz as Jeffries tells the GOP, "We're not paying the ransom note" Holy Moly! Clarence Thomas secretly participated in Koch network donor events.

Across the political spectrum, corruption seems to be the big news of the day. Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez was indicted today for taking hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes. Meanwhile, ProPublica reported that Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas secretly attended Koch Network donor events that could be in violation of federal law. (And, let’s not forget the former president’s indictments.) We’ll discuss the role of the press and the Department of Justice in trying these cases. Then, we’ll play Half-Full/Half-Empty and debate whether shorts on the Senate floor should be the new norm. Here’s everything we talked about: “Clarence Thomas Secretly Participated in Koch Network Donor Events” from ProPublica “FBI found gold bars in Menendez's house, money stuffed in jackets, prosecutors say” from The Hill “New Jersey Sen. Bob Menendez says he won’t resign” from NBC News “Time to brush up on the Food and Forage Act of 1861, everybody” from Washington Monthly “UAW will widen strike against GM and Stellantis but not Ford” from The Washington Post “UAW official says union creating “chaos” for automakers, leaked messages show” from Axios “The IRS Is Going to Know if You Sold Taylor Swift ‘Eras' Tickets” from The Wall Street Journal “How do companies decide what to name AI tools?” from Marketplace “Spanglish branding is reaching Latino consumers” from Marketplace “How the orange egg yolk trend was hatched” from Marketplace “The Senate is relaxing its dress code.

Tonight, on All In: A Supreme Court Justice and a United States Senator – corruption in the system as American's confidence in it declines. Tonight, the stunning details from the indictment of Senator Robert Menendez. And the ProPublica reporting on Clarence Thomas & a new group of right-wing billionaires. Plus, President Biden's bold move to support the striking autoworkers, in person – and one day before Trump's own debate-dodge stunt. And the sad decline of Ron DeSantis, as Republicans say “no thanks” to “diet Trump.”Guests: Jonathan Dienst, Nick Akerman, Michelle Goldberg, Justin Elliot, Rep.

This is an excerpt of Gaslit Nation's weekly bonus episode. To listen to the extended version, receive all episodes ad free, exclusive event invites, and join the conversation, support the show at Patreon.com/Gaslit.    The average bedtime for children is around 8pm. Late into the night, well past that hour, angry mobs honk and scream into bullhorns outside a migrant shelter on Staten Island. Their rioutous harassment, meant to terrorize the newly arrived aslym seekers that include children, can be heard in homes far up the street. This goes on night after night.   In this extra pissed off bonus episode of Gaslit Nation, Andrea explains how disinformation worsens the migrant crisis, why Republican crony Mayor Eric Adams with his Russian mobbed up pals is the worst person for this moment of crisis in New York City, and how Merrick Garland continues to empower corruption in America that profits off the demise of our democracy.   Unfortunately, the Hunter Biden investigation makes it nearly impossible for President Biden to replace Merrick Garland (though he should immediately!). But that would be seen by the hand-wringers in the Democratic Party establishment as feeding the far-right's echochamber. As the clip of the recent Garland hearing in this episode shows, the DOJ was called on by Democratic members of Congress to investigate Clarence Thomas for being on the payroll of Nazi memorabilia enthusiast and far-right mega-donor Harlan Crow. When pressed on that matter, you can hear and/or see for yourself in the clip how Garland sounds dismissive, almost annoyed, like he doesn't grasp the urgency–because he doesn't. The latest bombshell investigation by ProPublica, out yesterday, exposes how Thomas worked fundraisers for a group that regularly took cases before him at the Supreme Court. (Look out for our interview with ProPublica's Jesse Eisinger about their damning investigations into Thomas, Alito, and what can be done about elite criminal impunity. Eisinger led the investigation of former Manhattan DA Cy Vance, Jr. who prevented indictments of Ivanka and Don Jr. for felony fraud after receiving a campaign donation from a Trump family lawyer).   Finally, the second half of this week's bonus episode includes the live audience Q&A with Terrell Starr of the Black Diplomats podcast reporting from Kyiv. The audio of the first question was removed by request due to the personal nature of the matter: overcoming workplace abuse. If you or someone you know is struggling with an abusive workplace or related issues – whether it's in a corporation, a small business, or a partnership – seek legal help immediately. Contact your state's local bar association for lawyers willing to do pro bono work or a free consultation. In a time of great economic uncertainty, people are increasingly vulnerable to workplace abuse, whether financial, emotional, or both, and being exploited – so get the help and support you need by taking a meeting with a lawyer to know your rights. You will be glad you did.   Question for our audience: Given the Nazi viper den of Twittrer, and the harmful abuse there targeting vulnerable communities, what are some other social media sites that you're increasingly turning to and find helpful?

Hour 4 James has it out with his relatives Audio from WGIG-AM and FM in Brunswick, GA

  Cap'n David Waldman, at the helm of the Good Ship KITM, sails us safely through another “Talk Like a Pirate Day” … uhm, “Yar”? (For our Canadian listeners, that's “Yar, eh?”) Special Tuesday guest Joan McCarter isn't feeling nautical today but can suggest a few members of Congress to keelhaul.  Republicans in DC have not been quite “arrayed” as of late. Republicans who always wanted to burn it down are using their fellow Republicans as kindling. The House are kneecapping the Senate, but so is Senator Ron Johnson. Matt Gaetz has turned against Kevin McCarthy, but pretty much everybody is turning against Matt Gaetz. The Biden impeachment inquiry might at least shut down with the government if they all didn't mind abusing their staff. Clarence Thomas' graft scandal raises the question of why SCOTUS justices have the time to take 38 vacations. Catholic fundamentalist tycoon Leonard Leo is working the judges from federal to state level to choke out voting rights. Donald Trump has been in court for about 60 years and is 77 years old. What does a warning about crossing the line into lifelong legal jeopardy actually mean to him? That's why he wrote to-do lists for lackies on classified documents. Using them as toilet paper wasn't getting his point across. Donald reminded aides that they “don't know anything about boxes”. Trump is right, in that not many know everything about all of the boxes. Rudy Colludy Giuliani's ex-lawyers sue him for $1.4 million that they say he owes. Rudy could use a little of that money Trump raised for him... Too bad it all went to Bedminster overhead costs, huh? Canada isn't worried so much about pirates anymore. Now it's the Sikh Khalistan movement which has been an Indian problem but is turning into a Canadian crisis. Five Americans are back on US soil after release from Iranian detention, which would normally be seen as great news, if it wasn't for the way abnormal people see things.

Bakari Sellers is joined by documentarian Dawn Porter to discuss her path from litigator to filmmaker (:51), her latest docuseries ‘Deadlocked: How America Shaped the Supreme Court' (4:37), and calling out the hypocrisy of Justice Clarence Thomas (9:43).  Host: Bakari Sellers Guest: Dawn Porter Producer: Donnie Beacham Jr.  Executive Producer: Jarrod Loadholt Learn more about your ad choices.

Leonce Gaiter's nonfiction writing has appeared in The New York Times, The New York Times Magazine, The Los Angeles Times, The Washington Times, LA Weekly, Slate, and The Washington Post. Gaiter is also the author of the historical novel, “I Dreamt I Was in Heaven - The Rampage of the Rufus Buck Gang”. Leonce explains why white privilege and white racial innocence will not save (white) Americans from Trump's plans to be a dictator and the hell world that the American neofascist movement is trying to impose on the country. He also reflects on why black and brown “conservatives” like Clarence Thomas and Tim Scott have chosen to surrender to white supremacy and a pathological pursuit of honorary Whiteness as their way of finding “success” and “happiness”. In this wide-ranging conversation, Leonce and Chauncey dialogue about how they both escaped the trap of being black conservatives, masculinity and violence, the Democratic Party's failed messaging, and the much-heralded “Battle for Montgomery” where black folks fought back against white thugs on a pier.  It is Chauncey DeVega's birthday week and as is his habit he reflects on his life journey this past year, successes and failures, and plans for the year ahead.  And because it is his birthday week, Chauncey indulges himself with a story about being a hero in his neighborhood, fighting back against a local pervert, and an encounter with a toilet freak. Chauncey also reads one of his favorite parts of Cormac McCarthy's book “Child of God” and shares why he has already seen Denzel Washington's new film “The Equalizer 3” three times at the movie theater.

Former U.S. Attorney Barbara McQuade joins the show to discuss Donald Trump's legal jeopardy, whether the 14th Amendment could bar him from running for office, and the need to protect U.S. democracy. Daniella and lead producer Erin also talk about MAGA Republicans' bogus impeachment inquiry attempts and why Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas should resign.

Guests: Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ankush Khardori, A. Scott Bolden, Heidi Przybyla, Mona Charen, Carlos CurbeloThe House returns with plans for an unfounded impeachment. Tonight: Congressman Jamie Raskin on the MAGA push to impeach—and the Republicans who agree it's a terrible idea. Then, really behind Trump's desperate attempt to replace his coup trial judge dismiss his charges in Georgia. Plus, his Supreme Court ruling on Citizens United released an avalanche dark money into American politics. Now we have explosive new reporting on how Clarence Thomas' wife Ginni has made the ruling work for her. 

Today's Headlines: In recent news, a Politico report has unveiled connections between Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and conservative figures leading up to the 2010 Citizens United ruling. They planned to use a nonprofit to funnel dark money into campaigns for conservative judicial nominees but altered their strategy following a backlash. In Florida, a conflict of interest arises as a justice with ties to the abortion ban case refuses to recuse himself, while efforts are underway to place an abortion rights referendum on the 2024 ballot. The FDA approved updated COVID-19 vaccines targeting the omicron subvariant, and Hurricane Lee's landfall remains uncertain amid record-setting billion-dollar weather disasters costing lives. Internationally, the US issued a waiver for Iran sanctions to secure the release of detained American citizens, and a strategic security and economic agreement with Bahrain is on the horizon. Additionally, a major international infrastructure project linking India, the Middle East, and Europe was announced, involving Saudi Arabia, India, the UAE, and the US.

In this episode of The ReidOut we discuss how even some conservative people in Congress know it is nonsensical that Republicans like Marjorie Taylor Greene are pushing to impeach President Biden before even establishing the smallest hint of wrongdoing. Also in this episode, we share what we are learning about the Mar-a-Lago IT worker who could be a key witness for prosecutors in Donald Trump's classified documents case. Plus, we have new reporting on the Citizens United Supreme Court ruling, and how Ginni Thomas, wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, and right-wing Court whisperer Leonard Leo apparently seemed to have a jump-start in utilizing that ruling. All this and more in this edition of The ReidOut on MSNBC.
