Ginni Thomas Was ‘Deceived’ by ‘Untrue Election Fraud Nonsense’


  • Liz Cheney is clearly alarmed at the direction Virginia “Ginni” Thomas took after the election.
  • Ginni Thomas’ texts to Mark Meadows were uncovered during the House January 6 investigation.
  • “Ginni, like many others, seemed to believe everything she read and saw in the Trump-friendly media,” Cheney wrote.

Former Congresswoman Liz Cheney is disappointed in how Virginia Thomas, the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas, has continued to spout disproven claims about the 2020 presidential election.

“I was disappointed that Ginni Thomas had been deceived by the demonstrably untrue election-fraud nonsense,” Cheney wrote in “Oath and Honor: A Memoir and a Warning” which was published on Tuesday. “I was even more concerned that she did not seem to respect the rulings of the courts.”

Cheney wrote that she had known Virginia “Ginni” Thomas for decades. Cheney said they had not spoken for years when Thomas later testified behind closed doors to the House January 6 committee.

“Ginni, like many others, seemed to believe everything she read and saw in the Trump-friendly media,” Cheney wrote.

Thomas’ text messages to then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows urging the Trump administration to contest the election received considerable attention.

“Help This Great President stand firm, Mark!!! … You are the leader, with him, who is standing for America’s constitutional governance at the precipice. The majority knows Biden and the Left is attempting the greatest Heist of our History,” Thomas wrote to Meadows on November 10, 2020, according to multiple reports.

Cheney also said that based on her knowledge of Thomas, “I doubted very much that she was the mastermind” of efforts to overturn the election.

Thomas later referenced Trump attorney Sidney Powell’s vow to “release the Kraken” by unleashing evidence of widespread voter fraud. Powell’s evidence never came. Powell and other pro-Trump lawyers have been sanctioned for their post-election efforts.

Thomas told the January 6 Committee that she regretted that “these texts exist,” according to a transcript of her testimony. She testified that she still believed “there was fraud and irregularity” in the election, but that Joe Biden was President of the United States.

A representative for Thomas did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.
