Marc Elias has spent years masquerading as a serious legal mind, even though everyone who actually practices law knows the truth: he’s a clown. If it wasn’t for the Clintons, he’d be chasing ambulances in some podunk town. Instead, Elias is a political fixer. A Clinton-world errand boy. The kind of guy who speaks loudly to cover the fact that his arguments collapse the moment any competent person pushes back.

Also, remember, this is the same Marc Elias who helped inject the Russia hoax into the bloodstream of American media. The same Marc Elias who turned opposition research into a national mental illness. Cable news loves him because he talks fast, says scary things about Trump, and never has to face cross-examination.

So naturally, for reasons known only to the left’s most overconfident strategists, everybody decided that Marc Elias was the guy to take his act to the Supreme Court of The United States.

That decision didn’t go well…

Instead of friendly fake news anchors nodding along, Elias ran straight into a brick wall called Clarence Thomas. Elias had no script to fall back on. He wasn’t getting those lovely, gentle softball lobs. This guy went into the lion’s den with zero protection. So, when Marc had to face a competent Justice, quietly asking him to explain what the heck he was arguing and why any of it made constitutional sense, Marc crumbled.

It was painful.

And Elias wasn’t arguing some random fringe case. He was trying to sell the Court on this convoluted theory that coordinated political spending was some “First Amendment” speech issue. Basically, he wanted the justices to believe that paying campaign bills and coordinating expenses somehow magically transforms into “protected expression.”

Justice Thomas was not buying it.

As you listen to the audio, pay attention to what keeps happening. Thomas asks a simple question. Elias responds with a fog machine of confusion. Thomas asks again. Elias keeps circling the drain, repeating phrases like “symbolic speech” and “the act of giving,” without ever landing a coherent answer. Eventually, Thomas flat-out says he does not understand what Elias is even arguing.

Ouch.

Listen:

Sean Davis from The Federalist summed it up perfectly after watching the exchange, noting that anyone who actually litigates for a living already knows Elias is a bad lawyer, the legal version of a tone-deaf singer who compensates by screaming louder.

Sean Davis:

Talk to any actual, practicing litigators, and they will tell you Marc Elias is a bad lawyer, akin to a tone deaf singer who makes up for his lack of talent with volume. Hearing him get roasted by SCOTUS is amazing. Who is the idiot who picked him to argue this case?

Marc did so poorly that even his friends in the fake-news media abandoned ship.

Sean Davis:

Elias did so poorly today and embarrassed himself so badly that all his friends in the corrupt corporate media—the ones who have him on TV constantly to peddle hoax after hoax unchallenged—completely blacked out his SCOTUS appearance in the hope nobody would find out how disastrous it was.

Yes, this was one heck of an embarrassing day for Marc Elias. But it was a glimpse behind the curtain. The people who spent years insisting they were guardians of “precious democracy” literally collapse in a heap the moment real scrutiny enters the chat. When the cameras are gone and the slogans stop flying, there’s not much holding the performance together.

And it wasn’t “hostile territory.” Justice Thomas didn’t raise his voice. He didn’t lecture, Marc. He just asked questions…

And Marc Elias had no answers.
