It isn’t clear why then-President Trump put Ginni Thomas on the Library of Congress Trust Fund Board. But after her efforts to undermine democracy by overturning the election that Trump lost, it is clear that she should be removed immediately. John, Library of Congress Trust Fund Board membership is rarely (if ever) controversial. But Ginni Thomas’s efforts to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election make her unfit for any role in government, let alone one overseeing hundreds of millions of dollars in federal money. Ginni Thomas is a conservative activist who is married to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas. When Trump’s loss in Arizona was clear, she started pressuring dozens of Republican lawmakers to overturn Joe Biden’s presidential win in the state and to give their electors to Trump. She pressured state legislators in Wisconsin to do the same. – Email from Ginni Thomas Ginni Thomas also sent text messages directly to Trump’s recently indicted chief of staff at the time, Mark Meadows, telling him to “stand firm” against the legitimate outcome of the election, that he should not concede because “it takes time for the army who is gathering for [Trump’s] back,” and pressed for recently indicted attorney Sidney Powell to be “the lead and the face” of the Trump legal team. Thomas threatened to pull her political support if they were to “cave to the elites” by not working to overturn the election results. Her egregious actions to push the White House chief of staff and others to overturn a free and fair election make her a threat to democracy and should disqualify her for any role of public trust at the Library of Congress or anywhere else in government.
