Dear Friend,

Donald Trump is turning Ginni Thomas into a folk hero for the extremist
right wing.

The wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was just compelled to
testify to the House of Representatives' January 6 committee because of
her role in trying to overturn the 2020 election. But to hear Trump tell
it in his rally to thousands of people, Thomas is a person of “courage and
strength” who fought for justice.(1)

Whose voice will prevail: Trump’s, or Thomas’ in her own testimony? That’s
up to you.

Courage California is demanding that the January 6 committee air its final
hearings -- including Ginni Thomas’ testimony -- during prime time on the
major networks so that millions of people can learn the truth about how
deep the conspiracy to push Trump’s Big Lie goes. We’ve collected more
than 200,000 signatures, and now we need to push our demands on social
media and advertise far and wide that the January 6 hearings must be
accessible to all.

people see Ginni Thomas’ insurrection testimony?

Ginni Thomas is anything but a hero.

She was instrumental in coordinating the efforts between Trump’s White
House team and state officials in Arizona and Wisconsin to try to overturn
the election results.(2)

She has personally donated more than $16,000 to Republican candidates and
has been a high-profile attendee of events for extremists, despite the
fact that her husband sits on the Supreme Court.(3)

She also told the January 6 committee that she still believes the 2020
election was rigged.(4)

Ginni Thomas isn’t only a danger to our democracy on her own -- she has
influence over one of the most powerful people in government: her Supreme
Court justice spouse. Her treasonous actions must be broadcast to the
country when the most eyes are watching. And we know from the past
hearings that when they are aired during prime time, viewership reaches
Sunday Night Football proportions.

[ [link removed] ]Will you donate to help pressure networks and Congress to air the
January 6 hearings in prime time?

Yours in the fight for democracy that works,

Irene, along with Angela, Annie, Isidra, Jay, Lindsay, Mai, Mai, Raquel,
and Scottie (the Courage team)
