Originalism is a theory of the interpretation of legal texts, including the text of the Constitution. Originalists believe that the constitutional text ought to be given the original public meaning that it would have had at the time that it became law. (Constitution Center)
Clarence (or is it CLARANCE) Thomas loves to support the idea that the US Constitution should be considered history that lives in the present. He pontificates and lectures, we meager and meaningless minions that he and only HE understands EXACTLY what our Founding Fathers meant and still mean when having written the US Constitution.
EXCEPT, when it comes to people like Clarence Thomas himself. But one must remember, to be a member in good standing within the GOP, Republican Party, MAGA, Christian Nationalist Party one must demonstrate as much HYPOCRICY as humanly possible. For these charlatans and sociopaths, the LIE is important.
--------The Thirteenth Amendment (Amendment XIII) to the United States Constitution abolished slavery and involuntary servitude, except as punishment for a crime. It was passed by the Senate on April 8, 1864, and by the House of Representatives on January 31, 1865. (Constitution Center)
Hey Clarence, the all-white dudes who wrote the Constitution were slave owners. Negros were considered chattel and when they ORIGINALLY wrote the Constitution, your ancestors were nothing more than property.
--------Segregation in the sense of Jim Crow Laws and the physical separation of races in facilities and services ended in 1964. After almost 100 years of increased tensions and racial inequality, President Lyndon B Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act in response to the growth of a powerful Civil Rights Movement in the United States. (Constitution Center)
Clarence, remember that according to the ORIGINAL Constitution, the Negros living in America could and would have never EVER been permitted to be anything but slaves, could not ride yachts, fly on planes, sit in the First-Class section of planes, and God forbid take luxury vacations other than perhaps being shipped from one plantation to another.
--------Interracial marriage has been legal throughout the United States since at least the 1967 U.S. Supreme Court (Warren Court) decision Loving v. Virginia (1967) that held that anti-miscegenation laws were unconstitutional (Constitution Center)
CLARENCE, ORIGINALLY it was illegal to marry out of your own race. (Even Thomas Jefferson, hid his love affair with his slaves). So Clarence imagine if you actually were not a self-serving HYPOCRITE pontificating on morals and standards and ORIGINALISM, you and your treasonous spouse, Ginni could not married.
