Justice Thomas recalls why he wasn't friends with Alito in law school: 'Clarence, you were scary'

Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas recently recalled a funny conversation with Justice Samuel Alito about why they weren't friends during their time at Yale Law School.

When asked why they were never friends at the Ivy League institution, Alito told Thomas he was "scary."

Thomas sat down with Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, for a rare interview in which the pair discussed race, politics and a variety of other issues on an episode of the "Verdict with Ted Cruz" podcast, which aired Wednesday.
