I haven't gotten to this one yet to listen to.

Did the absurd mess that is Thomas's majority opinion in Bruen get discussed? (Bruen struck down a law, and one need only to look at the concurrence by Kavanaugh to see what a decent majority option striking the law down could have looked like).

That particular case was not discussed. Dr. Loury suggested that Thomas was ”one of us” (a black man), therefore Thomas should not be exiled despite his rulings on things like the Shelby case.

Thomas has views that fall outside what is considered to be the norm for many Black people. Liz Cheney was removed from power in the Republican Party for challenging Trump. Republicans label those with outlier views RINOs.

Thomas gets pushback. Cheney gets pushback. Water is wet.
