7:23Now PlayingThe January 6th Committee has obtained emails between Trump lawyer John Eastman and Ginni Thomas, the wife of Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, clearly showing that Thomas was very much involved in planning the coup attempt. In an email to another MAGA lawyer, Eastman explained that the SCOTUS was still debating whether or not to hear an election contest claim from Wisconsin, while Ginni reached out to 27 Arizona lawmakers on multiple occasions encouraging them to overturn their states' election results. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks. Watch LIVE weekdays 68 pm ET.

"The House committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection at the U.S. Capitol is in possession of emails Ginni Thomas, the wife of conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, exchanged with John Eastman, a lawyer advising former President Donald Trump how to overturn the 2020 election.
The correspondence shows Thomas was more involved in trying to reverse Trump’s election defeat than previously known, two sources told The Washington Post. The content of the emails, and the timing of the exchanges, wasn’t known.
Earlier this month, a judge ordered Eastman to surrender 159 documents to the House panel.
In another email exchange dated Dec. 24, 2020, reviewed by the committee and detailed in The New York Times, Eastman wrote to Kenneth Chesebro, another lawyer supporting Trump, and other Trump officials, that Supreme Court justices were arguing over whether to hear a case contesting the results of the 2020 election.
In the email, Eastman discussed filing a lawsuit over the results in Wisconsin, hoping to nudge at least four justices needed for the Supreme Court to take a case."
