Dem Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse Still Working On Racially Integrating His Beach Club

Posted • December 22, 2024: The Senate Judiciary Committee Democrats released their report stemming from a 20-month-long investigation into the "ethics crisis" at the Supreme Court … with the real "crisis" being that Democrats don't control it. One of the authors of the report was Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, fresh off of his in-depth investigation into Justice Brett Kavanaugh's high school yearbook. Here's Whitehouse from this summer weighing in on the presidential immunity case: Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse: “The far-right radicals on the Court have essentially made the President a monarch above the law, the Founding Fathers’ greatest fear.” -- The conservative Supreme Court has been a bit of an obsession with him. In May, Whitehouse and his colleague on the committee, Sen. Dick Durbin, accused Justice Samuel Alito of flying "MAGA battle flags" — namely the "Appeal to Heaven" flag — over his beach house.

FBI Director Christopher Wray testified before the committee in August of 2022, and Whitehouse used his time to ask Wray for information regarding the unsubstantiated, uncorroborated sexual assault allegations and smears against Kavanaugh. That isn't to say Whitehouse hasn't had scandals of his own. In June of 2021, the Washington Post looked into an all-white beach club of which Whitehouse was a member. Whitehouse said he was working on it. Whitehouse has just given an update on the efforts to racially integrate his beach club, and you know what? He's still working on it. Sen, Sheldon Whitehouse devotes pages to a timeline of vacations Justice Thomas took with his friends. Justice Thomas complied with the rules but Whitehouse is smearing him. Sen, Sheldon Whitehouse is obsessed w/ smearing Justice Thomas, a black conservative born into poverty in segregated south. Whitehouse & his wife Saundra are members of a notorious all-white beach club in Newport. When asked if “elite, all-white, wealthy clubs” should continue to exist, he said “It’s a long tradition in Rhode Island.”

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse later tried to disown this shocking answer. Together, he & his wife Saundra remain the largest shareholders in this still reportedly all-white club. Justice Thomas could not be a member of this racist club. Someone should look into how the senator’s wealth has grown whilst he was in office. This calls for a 20-month investigation. Sen Whitehouse is a corrupt politician that should be expelled from Congress and be prosecuted for the attempted overthrow of America. Is this the same Sen. Whitehouse who's long-belonged to an all-white beach club, Bailey's Beach Club in Newport, RI where his wife is on the board? That dude? Huh. (…)
