New: Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas did not attend oral arguments Monday and provided no explanation for his absence. Chief Justice John Roberts announced that Thomas would not take part shortly after the court sat for arguments in a public corruption case Monday morning. In the past, the court has often provided some explanation, such as noting that a justice was feeling ill. Sometimes, those justices take part in arguments remotely. Thomas, 75 and the most senior associate justice on the high court, missed several arguments in 2022 after being diagnosed with an infection.
@jimsciutto Clarence Thomas stopped at the bank on the way to work and it took way longer than expected.
