Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez calls for Congress to limit the power of the Supreme Court (msn.com)
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) stated that Congress should use a variety of methods to limit the power of the Supreme Court.In an appearance on CNN on Sunday, the New York Democrat argued that the Supreme Court was compromising its own legitimacy and that she believes Congress must act to limit its power.
"I truly do," Ocasio-Cortez answered when asked if she believes the power of the Supreme Court justices should be limited. "And this is not a new — this is not a new development in history. This is part of our system of checks and balances. The courts, if they were to proceed without any check on their power, without any balance on their power, it would be a dangerous, authoritarian expansion of power in the Supreme Court."
The New York Democrat then said that Congress should use every tool at its disposal against the Supreme Court, including investigations, subpoenas, and impeachments."We have a broad level of tools to deal with misconduct, overreach, and abuse of power, and the Supreme Court has not been receiving the adequate oversight necessary in order to preserve their own legitimacy," Ocasio-Cortez said. "And in the process, they themselves have been destroying the legitimacy of the court, which is profoundly dangerous for our entire democracy. We will bury them."
Do not count me as one who fears the Supreme Court.

What I fear is utter destruction of the two party system, and my side having no other party to restrain them.
By the odds, Biden and Trump, both too old to be President, will face off in November 2024 and Biden will win all the states he won in 2020 and North Carolina.
The Republican Party has not won even a small popular vote victory in a generation and not a decisive one since 1984.
We have likely already seen, the last Republican President.
In another two generations the entire Supreme Court will be appointed by Democrats, and all federal judges as well.
The vast majority of Americans are not liberal or conservative but centrists.
We like, life as we’ve come to know it,
The Democrats only play, towards the center left, and the Republicans only play, completely off the spectrum to the right.
People have been predicting the end of this and that for my entire life.Z09 » 02 Jul 2023, 5:08 pm » wrote: ↑ She's a dope....

It’s not a wonderful idea to have 80 some year olds as President.
Harris had two electability problems, she’s black and female.
Compare that to Trump’s problems, of being a Republican and nearly 80 and his mouth.
Next November any Democrat, no matter who, starts out from the gate with 250 electoral votes and five states that all went Democratic in 2020 in play.
Harris doesn’t need to win any states but Pennsylvania, plus another.

International Relations

== As an international relations major, you will draw from a variety of academic disciplines to gain a more complete picture of the issues and traditions that shape regions and nations.

That is a totally factual statement. Congress has a lot of constitutional tools at its disposal to shine a harsh light on SCOTUS. If they can't stand the heat...

Tell me, do you think all people are created equal? Do you think people should be judged by the content of their character, and not the color of their skin?

And, of course, I think all people are created equal. I also believe that, in a place where people of one color were subhuman property for centuries, society does not just magically become color-blind and dispense that equality by fiat.
