Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas crossed a line in a case involving the Capitol riot, according to a member of the Jan. 6 committee.
Rep. Adam Schiff , a high-profile member of the panel, ratcheted up his rhetoric admonishing Thomas after the vice chairwoman of the committee, Rep. Liz Cheney , said on Sunday the panel could subpoena Virginia"Ginni" Thomas, the wife of the conservative justice. Schiff referred to the Supreme Court ruling in January to reject a request by former President Donald Trump to prevent the release of White House records to the Jan. 6 committee; Thomas was the lone justice to dissent.
Schiff was responding to a question from Face the Nation moderator Margaret Brennan, who asked the congressman if there are lines that shouldn't be crossed here when it comes to the Supreme Court, noting,"One of the objections to the premise of a subpoena here is that it sets a dangerous precedent by putting the spouse of a justice in this political forum."
