I've really never had any issues with ATT fiber when I've had it.

That might be a compelling argument in the case of a justice who wasn't tainted by the appearance of corruption.
Corruption isn't something you sway with a slick legal argument. Corruption dictates the outcome and finds justification after the fact.

None of these folks would have trouble getting a job with likely better pay.
With very few exceptions, they have a previous clerkship with a federal judge.
By helping Thomas justify his opinions, they literally further his potentially corrupt influence.
I simply do not understand this desire to coddle people who are supposed to be the future best and brightest of the legal profession and refuse to hold them accountable.

Since 2020 he has had 18 law clerks.
6 from Yale, 5 from Chicago, 3 from Harvard, and 1 each from NYU, Virginia, George Mason, and Alabama.
Each class of 37 law clerks (4 per justice 5 for chief justice) is on a path towards being able to wield power and influence that will impact every person living in the United States.
These are future federal judges, attorneys general, state solicitors, state supreme court justices, politicians, lawyers and activists.

They said "starting this year". Anyone who worked for him in the past is fine, but people choosing to work for him are most certainly aware of the reporting about him.
Personally I think that's generous. It's unlikely that his clerks were totally unaware of how he was operating.

Another fun thing about 3d printing, is that I basically have nearly everything needed to repair small electronics now.
