During her interview, responding to questions about Thomas\u2019 opinion regarding the recently-overturned abortion cases\u00a0<em>Roe v. Wade<\/em> and\u00a0<em>Planned Parenthood v.

Griffin went on to say that in addition to asking about his life, Justice Thomas shared a bit of his own with the young lawyer.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe showed us pictures from his latest vacation with his wife and fondly spoke of the love he has for her. We discussed America, and from everything he said it was clear he loves this country and the people in it,\u201d Griffin continued, adding, \u201cIn my anecdote, he did not know me or owe me anything. But he afforded me incredible kindness. I am certain he extends the same to others. He is committed to the Constitution, which is how he came to this and his other decisions.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo lie about the man because you do not agree with him is wrong, and people can plainly see it as desperate attack for cheap likes. CT is neither angry nor resentful, and this is abundantly clear to anyone who has interacted with him in person,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas\u2019 own colleague, Justice <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/justice-clarence-thomas-gets-surprise-defense-from-justice-sotomayor\/\">Sonia Sotomayor<\/a>, also commented recently on the justice\u2019s demeanor \u2014 and her assessment appeared to align more with Griffin\u2019s than with Clinton\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI suspect I have probably disagreed with him more than with any other justice, that we have not joined each other\u2019s opinions more than anybody else,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/dailywire.com\/news\/sotomayor-accuses-conservative-justices-of-attempting-to-dismantle-separation-of-church-and-state\/\">Sotomayor<\/a> said of Thomas during a recent speech before the\u00a0American Constitution Society. \u201cAnd yet, Justice Thomas is the one justice in the building that literally knows every employee\u2019s name \u2014 every one of them. And not only does he know their names, he knows their families\u2019 names and their histories. He\u2019s the first one who will go up to someone when you\u2019re walking with him and say, \u2018Is your son okay? How\u2019s your daughter doing in college?\u2019 He\u2019s the first one that when my stepfather died, sent me flowers in Florida.\u00a0He is a man who cares deeply about the court as an institution, about the people who work there, but about people.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor Ron DeSantis\u2019 (R-FL) Deputy Press Secretary rebuked former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton over her Tuesday interview attacking Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, calling her assessment of the justice \u201coffensive, disgusting, and false.\u201d Bryan Griffin criticized the failed presidential candidate in a tweet, saying that his own experience with Thomas flew directly in the &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":93,"featured_media":1531002,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1530622","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1530622","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/93"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1530622"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1530622\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1531002"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1530622"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1530622"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1530622"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
