Thank you AOC for standing up for the American people! Her speech introducing the articles of impeachment is well worth watching: https://youtu.be/1H1R_qtPiVY
Good on her for keeping this in the news for another cycle. This doesn’t go anywhere after she hands them the speaker of the republican controlled House. Johnson is basically going to throw them right in the bin.
But I imagine her goal is to get the media to cover the drama, and therefore keep this corruption story in the news.
She and others should just keep filing articles of impeachment every week until Nov. Keep this shit in the news.
This lady will do anything to keep her name in the news.
This has as much chance of going somewhere and she does it being president which is to say zero.
This is political theatre to distract from the party’s current issues.
You’re correct in that the press coverage is the point, and it’s impossible to get past Johnson.
I disagree that this is about getting her name in the press. She’s trying to keep the supreme court’s last session in the press. The media will focus on the court for a week, then move onto the new shiny thing.
The only way to keep the SCOTUS in the news right now is to do stuff like this. The big broadcasters flock to the drama.
Meaningless since the Republicans run the House.
It’s not entirely meaningless. Her aim is to keep the justices recent rulings in the media so that voters are aware of them come Nov.
AOC isn’t a dummy, and she’s knows that Johnson will immediately throw this in the trash.
I’d like to see someone else do this next week, and then another person the week after, etc etc. keep doing it until Nov. Keep reminding voters about the corruption.
Action denied is just more evidence of their complicitness rather than supposed. Also makes it very clear who does operate for their constitutes and only for their self interest.
Correct. This isn’t an open debate anymore - the bribes were accepted. Every no vote is a vote saying it’s ok to bribe the court.
The people who need to be convinced to care already don’t care. The GOP isn’t going to help remove their staunchest pawns on the court.
