“Corruption, without consequence, infects all it touches,” Ocasio-Cortez said.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez slammed Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito in a speech on Wednesday, saying it is vital that they be impeached after the two have committed innumerable “abuses of power” that have helped lead the country down a dark path.as she introduced articles of impeachment against the justices, Ocasio-Cortez warned that the deep corruption on display by both justices “infects all it touches” and must be stopped by Congress.
The type of violations committed by the justices represent grave threats to democracy and are exactly why the concept of impeachment was established, she said. Meanwhile, Thomas’s refusal to recuse from cases related to the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol despite his wife’s role in organizing the day’s events represents “one of the most shocking examples of conflict of interest in the Court’s history.”
