[KARAH RUCKER]
DEMOCRATIC LAWMAKER ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ HAS INTRODUCED ARTICLES OF IMPEACHMENT AGAINST CONSERVATIVE SUPREME COURT JUSTICES SAMUEL ALITO AND CLARENCE THOMAS.
THE NEW YORK CONGRESSWOMAN IS ACCUSING THEM OF what she calls “UNCHECKED CORRUPTION” FOR REFUSING TO RECUSE THEMSELVES FROM CERTAIN CASES —
— AND IMPROPERLY FAILING TO DISCLOSE GIFTS FROM WEALTHY DONORS.
however IT’S UNLIKELY THE JUSTICES WILL ACTUALLY BE IMPEACHED.
A MAJORITY VOTE OF 218 IS REQUIRED FOR THE HOUSE TO ADOPT THE ARTICLES.
CURRENTLY IN THE HOUSE — REPUBLICANS HOLD 219 SEATS AND DEMOCRATS HOLD 213.
