Clarence Thomas on the NAACP's Position on Public Purpose

"It's the most I've ever agreed with him on one of his like, abolish this entire line of precedent sort of dissents," he says. "He starts with long tangents on textual interpretation and it's just mind numbing." The dissent is essentially an endorsement of the position outlined by the NAACP, Sotomayor writes. It's a viewpoint that Clarence Thomas will completely ignore and dismiss in every other case, she adds.
