Motherfucker, Anita Hill was there and you ignored her. Any regrets you have that don't involve apologies to her and resigning are meaningless.
Biden was the one who promised Hill she would have a chance to speak and then didnt let her. He led Thomas's confirmation hearing.

Bent over backwards to bury the accusations and get Thomas confirmed. FTFY
He even supported Biden who was also happy to throw anything negative of Thomas away
Fuck you Clyburn. The signs were there, you fucking knew. You don't get to clear your conscience when Death is knocking. I hope you regret the harm you've caused with your dying breath.
He never had principles, as evidenced by testimony about how he's a rapist during his confirmation. They all fucking knew exactly what he was.
Clyburn has always been a "third way" centrist hack who judges bills by how "bipartisan" they are. If he had a chance to do the same vote over again today he'd still vote to install Thomas.
He's just campaigning right now. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/politics/south-carolina-rep-jim-clyburn-will-run-for-an-18th-term
I'm sure after he said that he phoned Thomas and apologized on the downlow.
A lot of neoliberals are suddenly going to start "supporting" what they used to call too extreme, but it's just because they're hoping to retain their seats and toss out enough breadcrumbs the movement doesn't have enough momentum for real change.
Leave the current SC on the bench for 40 years and adding a couple to balance them out isn't the solution.
We need a way to remove the rot, not just throw more apples on top of the rot.
I have no doubt they share a meaning of what uplifting minorities means, even today. Fuck them both
You wanted to cash the bribe checks, but you don’t want to live with the consequences? Pathetic selfish loser.
Should be age limits too. Every other country figured that out....
Should not be for life, either. It should be a set amount of time. e.g. 4 years, or whatever. No one should get a job for the rest of their life, with next to no way to remove them.
Clyburn has always been a gigantic piece of shit.
Same then as he is now.
"It was a mistake." In this case translates to "I knew what I was doing, but I don't want to be held responsible."
Took the money when it mattered, then had a crisis of conscience late in life. Typical. Fuck this guy, too.
Nawww, really?
Too bad that shithead is there for life.
Yeah he got his and got his kids theirs. What's he want? A mulligan? Little late for a do-over.
He also backed pro life POS Cuellar in Texas
Thats only 1 of 3 current Republican SCOTUS justices given to us by the DNC
They tried to make it 4 with Merrick Garland.
Also water is wet
The man who has been the most wrong on every case?! No, you're being too hard on yourself.
Another justice right now is just another trump appointed lacky
He should apologize for his support of biden and harris, and clinton surely before.
Fuck you James, sorry, but you are the fucking problem here.
Something about birds of a feather.
