PHOTOS: “Disqualify Trump” Demand Projected On SCOTUS Steps

Washington, D.C. – Today, Friday, February 2, MoveOn Political Action commissioned a mobile billboard circulating throughout the District as part of a grassroots push to pressure Justice Clarence Thomas to recuse himself from ruling on the Trump v. Anderson case. The nation’s highest court will begin oral arguments next week on an appeal to a landmark ruling in Colorado blocking former President Donald Trump from voter ballots in accordance with the Constitution’s 14.3 clause. Justice Thomas has a clear conflict of interest in the case, in light of the revelations that his wife Ginni Thomas’ encouraged Trump to pursue election fraud and incite an insurrection against the government and the will of the people on January 6, 2021.

The mobile billboard–circulating from 10am – 6pm ET around the the Capitol, the Federalist Society, and downtown D.C.– features messages including “From Marriage with Love…  to Corruption on the Court”, and “Justice Thomas, Recuse Yourself Now.”

More than 136,000 Americans have also signed a MoveOn petition calling for Thomas to recuse himself and for stronger ethics rules to be enacted for the U.S. Supreme Court. MoveOn members have also been on the frontlines calling for Trump’s disqualification for inciting an insurrection. 

As a continuation of MoveOn’s year long campaign to keep Trump off the ballot, last night, MoveOn activists held an action on the Supreme Court steps projecting the “Disqualify Trump” demand. Nearly half a million individuals have signed onto a petition calling to disqualify Trump from holding public office, under the Constitution’s 14th Amendment.
