Don't Listen To The Rumors, Clarence Thomas Isn't Retiring From SCOTUS
He has no plans to leave the bench any time soon.
He will die on the court. He’s just warming up. He still feels young, and there’s a lot of work to do.
— Armstrong Williams, a close friend of Justice Clarence Thomas, commenting on the likelihood that the associate justice will be retiring from the Supreme Court any time soon. “I have no reason to think the justice is going anywhere,” said former Thomas clerk Helgi C. Walker, a partner at Gibson Dunn. Thomas is the longest-tenured justice on the high court, and rumors of his supposed imminent retirement have been swirling ever since Donald Trump was elected president. Thomas, who has been surprisingly vocal lately during oral arguments, has repeatedly denied these claims.
