Clarence Thomas’ New ‘Karen’ Law Clerk Is Accused Racist

Leave it to Supreme Court docket justice and unintentional Uncle Ruckus impersonator Clarence Thomas to rent as his regulation clerk a white girl going through Karen-ish accusations of texting, “I hate Black individuals” to a colleague.

In accordance with the New York Instances, of all of the individuals in America who Thomas may have employed as a clerk for his upcoming time period, he selected Crystal Clanton, a former nationwide area director at Turning Level USA — the conservative anti-think tank for mediocre white individuals based by barely-even-closeted white nationalist Charlie Kirk, a loud and proud racist who by no means passes on a chance to antagonize Black individuals with largely factless white nonsense, and, not too long ago, he was on a mission to show by white right-winger requirements that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was an “terrible” one that shouldn’t be celebrated as a hero. So, it’s not terribly stunning that Klanton—sorry, Clanton — is a pea in that very same pod. 

From the Instances:

In late 2017, a New Yorker story reported that Ms. Clanton, who had served for 5 years because the nationwide area director at Turning Level USA, a conservative pupil group, had despatched the textual content messages, together with the assertion “i hate black individuals,” to a different worker. The New York Instances has not seen the messages.

Ms. Clanton, who had resigned from the group by the point the article got here out, instructed The New Yorker on the time that she had no recollection of the messages and that “they don’t mirror what I imagine or who I’m and the identical was true once I was a youngster.” (Ms. Clanton would have been 20 years previous when the messages have been despatched.)

Within the years since, Ms. Clanton has maintained an in depth relationship with Justice Thomas and his spouse, Virginia Thomas. Ms. Thomas as soon as served on the advisory board of Turning Level USA, and subsequently employed Ms. Clanton. The justice has known as the allegations towards Ms. Clanton unfounded and mentioned that he doesn’t imagine her to be racist.

Initially, the truth that Clanton mentioned she didn’t recall sending an explicitly racist and hateful textual content message—versus saying flat out that she didn’t ship it—may be very telling. In fact, it’s no shock that Thomas opted to imagine at face worth that Clanton was harmless of sending the bigoted textual content messages, as a result of, truthfully, even when she did write, “I hate Black individuals,” it will solely imply she seems to have lots in widespread along with her new employer.
