From Thomas being accused of sexual harassment to his wife’s involvement in a campaign to overturn the 2020 election, there has been a decades-long, complicated relationship between him and Biden. Biden reckons with another Clarence Thomas ethics issue:
was still fresh on Joe Biden’s mind when he gaveled the Senate Judiciary Committee back to order.
“As far as I’m concerned,” Thomas concluded of the televised hearing, “it’s a high-tech lynching for uppity Blacks.” The White House would not comment on the report. “There are other bodies of government that should be dealing with this – I’m just not going to comment from here,” White House spokeswoman Karine Jean-Pierre said.
Thomas’ supporters blamed Biden for allowing the hearing to spin wildly out of control and become a televised spectacle. Thomas also has been unwilling to forgive. In a 2020 documentary, he suggested racism was a factor in the hearing.
