(1,161 posts)Thomas needs to recuse himself before getting involved in Loose Cannon's bs rulings on the Mango Mussolini's call for a Special Master. This would be a major conflict of interest that should disqualify Thomas from making the call on this matter. The case needs to be reviewed by Justice Roberts. This is too important to subvert the investigation based on the gravity of the potential espionage and the blatant theft of classified materials by tRump.

the application. In practice, renewed applications
usually are referred to the full Court to avoid such
a prolonged procedure.
