The conservative justice was not present for oral arguments on Monday, but the court did not provide a reason why.

Conservative Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas was not present at the court for oral arguments on Monday, with the court giving no reason for his absence.

Chief Justice John Roberts said in court that Thomas “is not on the bench today” but would “participate fully” in the two cases being argued based on the briefs and transcripts.

A court spokeswoman had no further information.

Thomas, 75, is the eldest of the nine justices. The court has a 6-3 conservative majority.

    A dem speaker would absolutely bring this to a vote and Biden wouldn’t bring forward a candidate that he couldn’t get past the pains in the asses like Manchin.

    All of these judicial candidates have been pre-vetted to high hell.

    This would be a layup.
