It is impossible to deny that there is an equivalence between former President Donald Trump and the Democratic Party when it comes to threats against democracy, something that Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) is happy to remind us time and time again.

Raskin is now claiming the Department of Justice should force Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas to recuse themselves from cases involving Trump and Jan. 6 riot defendants. Thomas’s crime is having a wife who has her own opinions, and Alito’s crime is that he flew a flag that was flown by San Francisco up until a few days ago. Based on those media hit jobs, Raskin wants to prevent both of them from ruling on cases, which conveniently works in Raskin’s favor by pushing the court toward his preferred outcomes.
