corrupt clarence thomas one of 2 dissenting judges in veteran's fight for education benefits

[butters]

In a dissenting opinion this week, Clarence Thomas labeled a veteran's argument as "especially unconvincing" as the Supreme Court handed down a ruling regarding benefits for former service members. The conservative justice was one of only two dissenters in the 7-2 decision, which sided with veteran James Rudisill in his fight over education benefits.

Clarence Thomas dismissed James Rudisill's argument that he should be able to use 10 months of unused Montgomery GI Bill benefits in addition to his Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits as "especially unconvincing."

According to the AP, Rudisill believed he had 10 months of educational benefits left under the Montgomery GI Bill from his first period of service from 2000 to 2008. However, the Department of Veterans Affairs denied his request to use those benefits in addition to his Post-9/11 benefits.

The Supreme Court ruled 7-2 in favor of Rudisill, with Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson writing the majority opinion.

She stated that "Servicemembers who are eligible for educational benefits under either the Montgomery GI Bill or the Post-9/11 GI Bill—from a period of service that could qualify for either program—can opt to credit that service toward one educational benefits program or the other."

this is a win for all veterans, especially those having served multiple terms, allowing them to stack education benefits...a valuable asset given a vet's common struggles in reassimilating to civil life and the costs of further education. The more they've served, the more they deserve additional help, whether it's financial or psychological. The benefits are now capped at 48 months.

Clarence, who is a millionaire through a bribery system, dislikes benefits for veterans.

He likes his benefits to be unearned.

Get Jon Stewart on the case.

There has got to be a clause in old Clarence’s contract with all those rich overlords, (and the Devil???) that clearly specifies, that at absolutely no time must Clarence side with “the poors”.

Side note:

I am glad the SCOTUS ultimately ruled in favor of the veterans.
