‘Last Week Tonight’: John Oliver Returns To HBO & Offers To Pay Clarence Thomas $1M A Year To “Get The F*** Off The Supreme Court”
John Oliver started a new season of Last Week Tonight on HBO with a million-dollar offer to Clarence Thomas.
Not a million a year of HBOs money. Of his OWN FUCKING MONEY. Oliver is a maniac, and I love him to death. He could set up a gofundme for this and I would gladly contribute.
10/10 I'd set up an auto payment every fucking pay check.
The Anti-Kakistocracy Patronage Fund would be turning away donors
If people had just believed Anita Hill none of this needed to happen.
Yet Christine Blasey Ford still came forward to tell us about Brett Kavanaugh, and Congress ignored the victim AGAIN.
I bet if the sum was big enough he'd actually do it. Maybe we should all chip in to a gofundme?
It’s an election year, as if the republicans would let Biden pick a new candidate just as they didn’t let Obama when Scalia died before an election.
Gofundme might work better than the Gofuckyourself we have been doing so far.
Plus, as a retired Justice, he could keep raking in the bucks from speaking and book tours.
This seems like a pretty sweet deal.
"Associate Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan, Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh, Amy Coney Barrett and Ketanji Brown Jackson made $274,200 in 2023."
3.65x pay increase to step down and drive a bus?
The problem is he likes the status of power and influence more, he just wants to also be rich. But honestly, this is actually a good deal for him if he were thinking about retiring.
And the guy is 75. His maternal grandfather lived to be 76. John probably wouldn't be on the hook for very long.
Wasn't one of his corruption scandals that somebody bought his mother's home and she continued to live there rent free? How old is his mother?
Why would he take a cut in pay? He's getting way more in kickbacks and gifts.
I think it has its own merits helping the common folk to understand that even $1 million a year for literally nothing is still not a sweet deal as what Clarence Thomas has now despite his entire tenure of bellyaching about his responsibilities.
Sadly, that POS wouldn't give up the power for even 10X that amount.
