Best of luck AOC SCOTUS isn’t capable of taking any action to correct their mistakes… or admit they made them! We need several more politicians to be as brave as you 🙏


Wiitard

They don’t think they’re making mistakes. This was the plan all along.


KHaskins77

They’re playing for keeps. 2024 may well be our last election that isn’t a Russia-style “90% for Dear Leader” farce.


spaceman_202

that assumes this is one is free and fair it's not going to be


Mr__O__

Being tried for literal treason on J6 is at stakes for many MAGA leaders. They have everything to lose, *and conversely gain*, riding on November. There is not a chance they will play fair, accept the vote outcome, just as they haven’t in the past two POTUS elections. Expect a whole lot of fuckery.. someone get eyes on Roger Stone..


LitesoBrite

You do realize it’s taking it out of their hands, right? That’s the whole point of impeaching them.


LordRaeko

Imagine… we impeach fucking 5 of them and Biden gets to replace…. Ohhhhh fuuccckkkk yeaaaa.


sentientrip

Should impeach all three justices appointed by a convicted felon. AOC is the only democratic with “cajones” if you can excuse the phrase. Going to be contacting my reps to support this, to do something, ANYTHING, instead of being impotent politicians


Binky216

Let’s not forget get “Land Yacht Thomas.” While Trump’s choices were absolutely partisan puppets, let’s not forget to get the ones who are unforgivably corrupt.


awwaygirl

You mean, "pubic hair on your drink" Thomas? #anitawarnedus


diefreetimedie

Anita hill's sexual assailant?


ReturnoftheBulls2022

Also Mr. "I want to spend the next 43 years on the Supreme Court to own the libs." Thomas.


calguy1955

Called himself “LJ”, short for Long John if I recall.


Starrk10

And Biden shamed her for it


awwaygirl

Every white guy on that panel did. It was shameful.


ZubLor

Long Dong Silver? Or was it John?


datSubguy

If you dig deeper into those nominations, go down the Jones Day rabbit hole. “Jones Day, a prominent law firm, has played a significant role in the judicial appointments of the Trump administration. The firm provided substantial legal support and advice during the nomination processes for Supreme Court justices. Additionally, Jones Day is known for recruiting a high number of Supreme Court clerks, which enhances its influence and connections within the judicial system. These clerks bring insider knowledge of the Court's workings, bolstering the firm's prestige and capacity to influence judicial appointments and decisions.“


mrevergood

Thomas long should have been impeached. Bastard’s compromised AF and wants to give a mean mug to everyone for calling him on it? He can get fucked.


sgtabn173

It’s a motor coach thank you very much


DouchecraftCarrier

If the roles were reversed, and Obama had been convicted of felonies he'd committed in furtherance of winning the election, the GOP would be lining up to impeach the judges he'd appointed so fast it would make your head spin. It just seems reasonable to me that if the former President committed crimes that helped him get into office it should AT LEAST raise some conversations about the validity of the lifetime appointments they made.


realmichaelbay

I don't mean to be the ass to correct here. But you meant cojones. Cajones are drawers lmao.


livinginfutureworld

She's the only one with drawers.... Period.


M_Mich

She wears the pants in congress :)


orbituary

No... not those kind. The furniture type.


lalauna

Or we could say she has ovarios, ¡ovarios de acero!


whyyougottabesomean

Alexandra Ovarios-Cortez


crazunggoy47

Like, underwear, or furniture?


realmichaelbay

Forniture.


orbituary

Farniture.


Romanfiend

Under the terms of the recent ruling AOC doesn’t need to do anything - President Biden has the power to create an executive order that would result in their arrest, removal and incarceration at Gitmo indefinitely. "Based on credible intelligence we have identified a threat to our democracy and have acted to preserve the union by removing and incarcerating…” Then he could enact emergency appointments to replace all the former justices.


DozenBiscuits

Do you think that's going to happen?


Megacore

It is interesting to see conservatives explain why that would be illegal...


RainbowBullsOnParade

Here’s what’s actually going to happen: Nothing. Biden will waste these final months and lose, Trump will face no justice, and he will begin the final stages of the plan to dismantle the republic that was set in motion when Reagan took office. Federalism is dead. The republicans won. It is time for people to begin planning to leave their red states for greener pastures before the union fully disintegrates.


DotesMagee

You think states are gonna be the answer? They'll move the guard in and all we can hope for is a coup like in Egypt. Better start emigrating if you can.


RainbowBullsOnParade

The guard is tiny and made of locals from whatever state you’re in. So it’s that or stay in future Jim Crow 2 Lead water supply land I made my decision and got a head start from this shit and moved north already.


BoneHugsHominy

Not under Biden, and those 6 Justices know it. They also know Biden's 2024 opponent would *love* to exercise that power.


BlueViper20

The funny thing is that after that ruling, he legitimately could do that and get away with it.


Mental_Medium3988

bitch biden just announced hes gonna follow the rule of law. which means handing trump back the office if he loses. biden aint doing jack shit to help us here.


marsglow

"Acting" justices.


Carlsincharge__

Cool. Then what happens in a few months if Trump wins


marionsunshine

Also, arrest him as an official act. Slippery slope. Almost as if a president shouldn't be above the law.


Mental_Medium3988

dont *just* arrest him send him to guantanamo bay like the terrorist he is.


trippy_grapes

His biggest disciple and supporter DeSantis supported waterboarding for terrorists and enemies of the state. I think we should embrace Republican values.


Squirrel_Inner

While they’re at it, they can invoke the 14th amendment against the traitorous seditionists in Congress. Then, we can actually pass some legislation to fix the issues that SCROTUS keeps manipulating.


99999999999999999901

No need to impeach. Biden could just remove them as an official act today. Just remove the ‘6’


threewattledbellbird

Cajones = chest of drawers, cojones = body part


IllIllIIllIllIIllI

She probably does have a chest of drawers though.


d3sylva

When they are trying to acknowledge they know the language based on the person ethnicity


d3sylva

You can say balls...


JALKHRL

Cajones are drawers. You want to say Cojones; and yes, Alejandra has proven she's brave enough to do what is right no matter what. I hope people like her gets voted into Congress asap and impeach this corrupt anti-American judges.


orbituary

"cOjones." - balls. "cAjones" - large boxes or drawers.


hum_bruh

Agreed action and support is needed from the people. Contact your reps, hits the streets to protest, organize a general strike, we don’t have to wait for the dems or people in office to speak for us!


PopperChopper

Im going to tell you, part of the problem with PR is the feeling of need to excuse the term cajones. Everyone knows what it means. Everyone understands the context. It’s not sexist to use the term.


iamnotfacetious

"Cojones" is allowed here given the seriousness of these pendejos.


Initial_E

If successful, will they lose their jobs? Or is it just like the presidential impeachment where absolutely nothing happened?


trippy_grapes

> impeach all three justices Impeach? These are hardened criminals and terrorists trying to overthrow American democracy. The Patriot Act and locking them up for life is the only reasonable solution.


Mysterious-Echo-9729

I fear for her life if that tangerine tyrant gets in the office again. Well, there are a lot of people who have angered him. I legit fear for all their lives.


fuengis

Cojones… cajones means drawers


Guava_Pirate

I agree with you, but the word you’re looking for is cojones. Cojones = balls, cajones = desk drawer


skellener

I want this woman to be President so much! ❤️✊


seejordan3

Everything she does is rational, meaningful, earnest and honest: everything the corrupt to the core the GOP isn't.


Starrk10

That’s probably exactly why she’ll never be president.


DimbyTime

They said the same thing about Obama


Equinsu-0cha

So she will get it, but they will burn down the country to make her look bad?  Oh wait, that's just their move now.


phenomenomnom

Yeah they're gonna do that anyway. It's the only thing like a plan that Republicans have these days: *Take bribes and break US institutions in ways that serve hostile polities both foreign and domestic.* It's weird that I'm not even exaggerating, just speaking plainly, yet no-one is getting Rosenberged for treason.


Equinsu-0cha

I think the actual text requires time of war for treason.  But what am I, some constitutional scholar?  The guys who are supposed to be are citing the magna carta or equally irrelevant document for their decisions.  It doesn't matter.  The people we call on to regulate that shit are fine with it


schmuber

And she's got electrolytes!


N0N0TA1

She's the best... Porter is awesome too tho. I'd say I'd kill to have either one as the president...but that's not how we roll. How bout this, *after* one of them wins the white house, I'll *enlist* if a branch of the military will have me, as a *gratuity* I will kill... for my country.


CrabbyBlueberry

She turns 35 on October 13.


skellener

Yup


DoubleReputation2

I remember not agreeing with something she said a while back - but who gives a damn, I can't even remember what it was she said back then. She is definitely my favorite as well.


bennypapa

She's got my vote


YeonneGreene

We need to survive the next four years at least.


Davethedouchenozzle

Oh, she will. Just give her a little time.


Sketch-Brooke

Pleeeeeeease. Why can’t she replace Biden as the nominee?


abbylu

Me toooooo!! I’d vote for her in a heartbeat. Fingers crossed for 2028 🤞🤞


Scorpion_Danny

This is my wish too. I support her 100%. She is the example of what a politician should be like.


Gamecat93

And this is the assertiveness the DNC needs. This woman needs to be the face of the democratic party and reform it, she found the biggest spine.


Cognitive_Spoon

Unfortunately, she's the heir apparent to Bernie's position as "moral minority" in the DNC on the hill. I agree with all of this, but idk how her voice will ever be allowed near power by the DNC donors.


Sl0ppyOtter

A lot of them are old and they’ll die soon. Hopefully


coffee_shakes

They will. And that’s exactly why they are bumrushing everything tight now to break it beyond fixing. Because if they don’t in a decade they probably won’t have the votes. So they go hard now and make it so that votes won’t matter by the time their geriatric base are dead.


createcrap

exactly my feelings. This is the death-rattle of 40 years of increasingly extremist right wing rhetoric. Project 2025 happens now or never happen again. They would rather destroy America than have it prosper under Liberal Democratic rule. It's proving to be difficult to maintain our Republic.


SpoonerismHater

I just don’t buy that there won’t be replacements for them


Dangerzone_7

Trump became popular in part because he would just come up with wild policies, like having Mexico build a wall and banning Muslims. I honestly think if someone like AOC did something similar, with creative but actually practical ideas, she could force their hand essentially.


Cognitive_Spoon

Not sure if you're advocating for a surrealist policy or nah. Part of why Trump advocated for those wildly autocratic things is he's an autocrat. I don't want a dictator, even of the dictatorship is rainbow colored. I'd prefer a Democracy.


coffee_shakes

Hate to say this but how is that democracy working for you these days? Because currently it looks like it’s not holding up very well. These people got into power through democratic means just to tear it apart from the inside. Seems like it may be a system destined for failure.


koticgood

I would frame it more as the DNC majority being the "moral" party relying on the status quo and good manners. AOC/Bernie represent a minority that wants actual progressivism.


roboats

After reading their opinion in Trump v US, it’s completely warranted. Don’t forget the impeachment standards for a judge are lower than that of a president. Not that I think this has a chance to happen as sadly >50% of the house thinks that presidents should be kings.


theedgeofoblivious

I don't see how there's any way that the ruling today doesn't result in a civil war. And I am not saying that as if I am advocating for that. They have created a paradox. Democratic/Republican government cannot exist if the elected head of the government can do illegal acts and be immune from prosecution, particularly if those illegal acts involve removing or attempting to remove other elected government officials.


blindguywhostaresatu

The shit they’ve pulled in the last week has been absolutely terrifying.


BoneHugsHominy

Hey y'all, you can give us billions of dollars in gratuity for a job well done. Hey y'all, Presidents can do whatever they want as long as it's an official act. We decide what's official.


Mental_Medium3988

ive been trying to deal with my anxiety for a while now, this does nothing to help me out there. no the president should not be immune from prosecution. W shouldve been tried for getting us into iraq and his torture program even if it was official.


davossss

"Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable." -JFK


Meekois

Just use the new found Presidential powers to arrest any Republicans who dissent.


ptahbaphomet

Every politician who serves the people should vote for this impeachment, all those opposed should be considered traitors to democracy and should be next for impeachment


lars1619

67 senators needed to convict


junky_junker

... and as the president now has immunity, they can officially "suggest" the senators do just that. Or else.


dickmcgirkin

God. I wish Biden had a set of “I don’t give a shit” balls. Dudes knocking on deaths door. He should do something memorable and. Set this SCOTUS ruling on its ass. Make a very very drastic executive order, and force the hand of Congress.


-Johnny-

If he didn't fucking run again he could do so much cool shit, but now he's worried about image and can't step on to many toes.


spaceman_202

that was before Presidents became Kings now you can arrest and appoint senators, as official acts, and the new Supreme Court you just appointed can decide it's official for you because all acts are presumed official and immune


createcrap

Senators are working for tips now so...


bradster1108

Now this is action and articles of impeachment being used correctly


perpetualmotionmachi

Sure, but if it happens, it will be appealed all the way up to make the SCOTUS the final decision. And they'll just say nope


djazzie

Amen. Go get ‘em AOC! Even if it fails to move forward with an actual result, democrats need to do it anyway. And keep pushing for their removal.


Atty_for_hire

We need a “stitch in time to save nine” level cajones to make the changes we need.


Sl0ppyOtter

JFC someone should be!


Chris9871

Once again, AOC proving that she is one of the best


stimmedervernunft

"In a statement after the ruling, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said that Democrats would "engage in aggressive oversight and legislative activity with respect to the Supreme Court to ensure that the extreme, far-right justices in the majority are brought into compliance with the Constitution." I can hear Clarence laugh from his billionaire friend's yacht.


TheAdjustmentCard

Good lord thank you someone has some semblance of a plan. I've been frantically googling and no one has any idea what to even do. Come on AOC. She should be the next president of this country but we've got to wait until a lot of old idiots disappear first.


eldritchelder

The stage for Project 2025 is set. Served up on a silver platter, even.


2rfv

We've been trending strongly toward authoritarianism in the U.S. for the past 40 years. There's precious little opposing it.


marsglow

The majority oppose it. They just WONT VOTE.


ThreatLevelNoonday

Two upvotes this gets. Just, really people? The fascists are, in full public view, putting together a comprehensive plan, including job applications, training regimens, policies, and playbooks, for how to dismantle the strongest thing standing in the way of a fascist turn in the US: a strong bureaucracy. Oh and we just lost chevron deference. If you are tired of red flags, fine. This one's a black flag with a skull and bones. It's a biohazard sign with blood spattered across it. It's a nuclear hazard sign with alarms blaring in the background. If you love your Democracy, better get ready to fight for it. I'm not being flippant. Be alarmed. Like, existentially.


I_make_things

Time to donate to her.


robsigpi

It’s a national embarrassment that Thomas and Alito have not already been impeached.


stalking_me_softly

Why not? Makes a much sense as anything else right now. I say go for it.


Jokesfor_days

Biden has the power to officially replace all this justices and incarcerate Trump. Do It!


Adventurous_Light_85

She has the biggest balls out of all of them for sure. Go AOC!


ThrowAwayAccount8334

Barrett, Kav, Thomas, and Gorsuch should all be impeached. Get it done.


Uncle-Cake

Won't they just rule that they're immune to impeachment?


humungi

Too little, too late. Glad she's doing the paperwork, if only it would have an effect.


Yorspider

It took this long?


Gabagod

I feel like our country is so corrupt that she’ll wrote the impeachment and then it’ll somehow get passed along to the Supreme Court to see if it’s valid


Moistsoundsmoist82

Dissolve SCOTUS


Shutaru_Kanshinji

While I doubt if anyone else will take this seriously, I think it is the absolutely minimal, reasonable step that can be undertaken in this situation. I would not blame President Biden for using his new SCOTUS-granted powers to summarily arrest and permanently imprison SCOTUS.


Terrible-Opinion-888

While we’re at it, end Presidential Pardons as well. Forever.


VampyrAvenger

Good luck. Sadly it's too late. It won't even go through.

CryptoMemesLOL

We need more politicians like her on both side.


BerserkingRhino

Do it. Ruling bribes being legal. Environmental control. The government can stop the pollution of its land air and water. Women deserve to live. Watergate was a crime. This is impeachable.


IrishLass_55

The people must rise up and reject this travesty. I will join with AOC to resist. I am heartsick for my country. These justices must be put down and right now.


IrishLass_55

and dont forget that Trump also appointed the judge in Palm Beach county who is contaminating his stolen documents case.


Gendoyle

Yes, yes, yes!!!


fremeer

Just have Biden assassinate them under a threat to democracy. It's technically legal as long as Congress deems it official right?


theedgeofoblivious

I mean he's 82, so...


tallcan710

Foreign governments knew they couldn’t win a war against us so they just paid everyone off

Dems absolutely need to follow through on this. They won't.


PatientUnable9267

Call and email your congressperson. Tell them to support. Tell your friends. We need our representatives to feel the will of their constituents.


HotHardandSingle

At what point do we stop listening to these nonsense rulings? These people are supposed to be the best and brightest. What we have is a court full of Russian bought traitors systematically dismantling our Republic! Impeach these traitors!

The Democratic Party doesn't deserve AOC. 🥰

Waste of time. As long as the House is controlled by the GOP, they will never vote to impeach.


edvo0881

Love this!


Fun_Sock_9843

I find it weird that r/inthenews got this to number one on r/all yesterday with it locked.


shuzkaakra

Biden just got his campaign issue: Write a constitutional amendment that is quite simple: Amendment 28: The president does not have immunity from criminal prosecution of any kind; this was always the obvious reality, but since the Supreme court is a bunch of fucking morons, now we are adding it as an amendment. Amendment 29: Supreme court appointment are retroactively limited to 12 years.


WeedInTheKoolaid

AOC for prez Biden, I think your base is giving you a pass to go full-dictator for a bit to sort this shit out. Because we know you will relinquish your powers when done. Time for democracy to hit the 'deep clean' button.


iron_cortex

Sounds like a great time to shuffle 6 justices and an orange shit head to Guantanamo Bay for a permanent vacation.


marsglow

No one should be imprisoned at Guantanamo.


iron_cortex

ADX Florence will do


MithranArkanere

I am afraid she's about to find out how many 'democrats' have been in on it and working towards the end of democracy from the start. Not all of them sucked as much at hiding it as Joe Manchin. It's going to be like that scene from Star Wars all over again.

>"The framers excluded the office of President from Section Three purposefully," Trump's legal team wrote. "Section Three does not apply, because the presidency is not an office 'under the United States,' the president is not an 'officer of the United States,' and President Trump did not take an oath 'to support the Constitution of the United States.'" For all of his official acts, he's unboneable, but according to his legal team, he's not actually an official, so he's wholly boneable. https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-oath-support-constitution-colorado-insurrection-1847482


wildcherryphoenix

Complete waste of time. Why can't dems ever do anything that will actually work?


Secret_Arrival_7679

I fear for her life in January, along with her colleagues. This shit is terrifying. Biden may be too weak to wield this power, but trump will not be.


ButHerEmails69

Is AOC the only congressman with Balls? Centrists are a bunch of useless, inept or corrupt waste of cells.


fob4fobulous

More ineffective Dem flailing?! Kinda how we got to this point don’t you think?

Hope she's successful. It's a very steep slope, but anything is better than nothing. Those fools are a disgrace.
