Somehow you just ignore the facts. But hey, let's not take my word for it. Here is Jonathon Turley:
In the 895-page report, there was a conspicuous lack of any reference to Ginni Thomas. The media that pushed this exaggerated story for months followed a familiar pattern. They just shrugged and barely covered the fact the committee found nothing beyond...what some of us had previously noted: Ginni Thomas was a long-standing Republican activist who publicly supported Trump’s claims of a rigged election. It did prove one thing. What many people in this age of rage refuse to admit is that they like it. Rage is addictive.
The targeting of Ginni and Clarence Thomas proved just another exercise in liberal rage
Excerpts:
In the 895-page report, the “curious incident” is the lack of any reference to Ginni Thomas, Justice Clarence Thomas’ wife. For months, members, the media and an army of pundits hammered away at the “smoking gun” texts Thomas sent to Trump chief of staff Mark Meadows and others calling the election stolen and demanding challenges to certifying the electoral votes.
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) was the first member of Congress to call for Justice Thomas to be impeached over his wife’s 29 messages. Rep. Bill Pascrell (D-NJ) called for Thomas to resign immediately as a “corrupt jurist.”
Former Sen. Barbara Boxer and others joined these calls. (Boxer was particularly ironic since she used the same underlying federal law to challenge the certification of George W. Bush’s election.) Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) demanded an investigation. On the committee itself, Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) fueled the frenzy and demanded subpoenas for both Thomases.
The media also went into hyperbolic overload. Liberal sites demanded Thomas be impeached,
citing “watchdogs” who turned out to be the same crowd that has long denounced the justice.

Yet it turns out what we knew was largely all we needed to know.
There was not “much more to the story.” The entire Ginni Thomas scandal merited nary a mention in the massive report.
Indeed, it doesn’t appear the committee had anything more than what we knew when the controversy began.
The texts were never denied, and they weren’t surprising since Ginni Thomas was publicly supporting Trump and his claims. She was willing, moreover, to answer the committee’s questions voluntarily.
We’ve come a long way from the days when spouses were viewed as mere extensions of their husbands.
Ginni Thomas is an activist, and the couple has often discussed how they keep their professional lives apart.
Of course, when some of us suggested Ginni Thomas has a protected right to such views and communications, we were denounced as apologists or sympathizers to an “insurrection.”

That, however, does not change the fact there was nothing in this controversy that warranted the breathless coverage or, in my view, a subpoena issued to the spouse of a sitting justice.

In her testimony, Thomas reiterated under oath that she does not talk to her husband about her political activities and he does not discuss his work on the court. She reaffirmed she never told her husband about her conversations with Meadows.
