AOC Tries To Stack The Court

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez has filed articles of impeachment for two Supreme Court Justices, Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. This is not a move that will likely succeed but a precedent that when a politician does not like the outcome of the court, they can try to destroy the court and alter it in their favor.

AOC says that both justices have failed to disclose “financial and personal entanglements.” It’s odd she never had a problem with the Biden’s “financial and personal entanglements.” Or with Justice Sotomayor’s.

It seems clear that Democrats are desperate to get Supreme Court appointments because they know that they will lose the next election. Earlier this week, Senator Elizabeth Warren said that she supported adding new justices “to rein in a Court that Republicans packed and that clearly doesn’t feel limited by the rule of law.”

President Biden has only had one Supreme Court pick during his term and for Democrats, that is not enough given the court’s recent decisions that they don’t like. They say that the court is “threatening American democracy.” One could argue that subverting the judicial system because you don’t like the outcome is also “threatening American democracy.”
