Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) has announced plans to file articles of impeachment against Supreme Court justices. This follows a recent ruling on Trump's immunity, which she describes as an assault on American democracy. AOC argues that the Supreme Court is engulfed in a corruption crisis and that it is Congress's duty to defend the nation from what she terms as authoritarian capture. She stated, 'It’s our constitutional duty to reign in and impeach Supreme Court justices for rulings we don’t like.' Impeaching a Supreme Court justice would require a majority in the House and a two-thirds majority in the Senate.

AOC says she plans to file articles of impeachment with regard to the Supreme Court — doesn’t say which justices. (It’d require a majority of the House to impeach plus two-thirds of the Senate to remove a member of SCOTUS.) https://t.co/xK2xQBjJD5
The Supreme Court has become consumed by a corruption crisis beyond its control. Today’s ruling represents an assault on American democracy. It is up to Congress to defend our nation from this authoritarian capture. I intend on filing articles of impeachment upon our return.
The Left is engaged in a multi-year smear campaign against the Supreme Court in an explicit effort to delegitimize it. 2 years ago today, AOC said, It’s “our constitutional duty to reign in" and impeach Supreme Court justices for rulings we don't like. https://t.co/gDyNT5pjH7
