Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Seeks to Strip the Supreme Court of Its Constitutional Role
By Jerry Wilson | Jul 15, 2022 8:30 AM ET
The left’s vile ferocity regarding Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization remains unfettered by reality, logic, or morality. The reality is abortion is still available in many states. Logic dictates Roe v Wade was a flawed ruling deserving rejection. Morality states that maybe, just maybe, an unborn child is just that — namely, a child — warranting full protection under the law. However, this is the modern left we’re talking about, so you can safely dismiss any possibility of any or all of these points in action.
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, she of dubious reality grasping skills, and fellow Squad pimples on America’s political face have come up with yet another tack they fervently believe will whisk the Supreme Court away. Why, we’ll invoke the Constitution’s Article III! While it is a given the Squad’s collective Constitutional knowledge is less than their knowledge of how to sail the USS Constitution, this latest move demonstrates the frightening lengths today’s Democrats are contemplating to thwart the designed checks and balances the Constitution’s writers assembled to stop such assaults on a constitutional republic’s proper functioning.
Ocasio-Cortez made her plea to the current Congressional leadership public via Twitter.

:facepalm2:
-
AOC proving that she is just as adept as a constitutional scholar as she is an economist.
-
Congress can always pass laws or the country could always pass Constitutional amendments.
The Liberals' over-reliance on courts to assert "rights" is not backfiring on them. Precedents are not laws. This Supreme Court is itching to carry forth a conservative unwinding of disagreeable precedents.
The only remedy is legitimate legislation - not precdents, not executive orders.
-
The only way to do that is to suspend the Constitution and carry out a revolutionary coup.
Don't think you want to go there AOC.

Nope, she will be one of the first executed for treason. The Marie Antoinette of our time.

Ummm, Miss Former Barista...... the Supreme Court just ruled that it has no jurisdiction over abortion. None.
They are leaving it up to the states, whose legislatures have the power to determine what limits might apply to the practice, subject to the ultimate approval of each state's voters. This is called "democracy in action".
What you're looking for, Señorita Bocaza, is for is a Federally-mandated right to unlimited abortion on demand, which would require a Constitutional amendment, nothing less.
Good luck with that. And I'll take a double latte please, with extra foam.

Anything to get in front of the cameras or microphones.... and your name in print..

Alex Stein will be sad. :cool:

It will be interesting to see how Chuckie and Nancy respond.
Quite frankly AOC scares the heck out of me with her outrageous ideas and rants, and she is eligible to run for president in '24.
