SEBASTIAN GORKA (HOST): I treat it as the new, the second high-tech lynching of Clarence Thomas. The assault on a Black conservative justice simply because he is a conservative. Now they're attacking him through is lovely wife, Ginni Thomas. And this is Cory Booker really telling you what it's all about.

...

GORKA: I remember a time, Alex, when Democrats lynched Black Americans because they had relations with white women. This is just a newer version of that, isn't it? 

ALEX MARLOW (BREITBART EDITOR-IN-CHIEF): It's certainly in the same ballpark because acting like it's something new – that Ginni Thomas is part of the conservative movement – is just incredibly dishonest. Anyone who's been in the conservative movement for five minutes, Dr. G, and I've been in it for 15 years, knows Ginni Thomas is a major player in the conservative movement –

GORKA: And not only that, and not only that. Has been friends with Mark Meadows for decades and the fact that she's not allowed to text Mark Meadows, the president's chief of staff, on January 6th, that's a reason her husband can't be a Supreme Court justice, Alex? 

MARLOW: Yeah. It's incredibly belittling to all women because in this instance, you have a woman who actually independently is successful in her – for her vocation, which is conservative activism. She's pretty legendary in the space. And to act as though it compromises Clarence Thomas' legal judgement is evidence-free and it's an attack on Ginni Thomas' character and Clarence Thomas' character all from an unfounded place. It's totally absurd. It's designed for us to take our eye off the ball with all the problems in Joe Biden's America. I think your audience, my audience, Dr. G, I think we see through that pretty easily.

But just know what this represents for the rest of us. Those of us who have a controversial job. Even if our spouse doesn't agree with us politically, you could get lynched in the high-tech style so long as it's convenient for them politically now. I worry about this with my family. Will my family get punished because of what I do for work? I know that you've experienced that Dr. G. And Cory Booker is ratcheting that up and I don't like it.
