#AOC #SupremeCourt #Impeachment
Those "gifts"' aren't gifts. They are bribes.
According to the corrupt court, as long as you call them tips after the fact, it's A-Ok. Impeach them now!!
1000%
Proof?
They must be prosecuted
So true!!
Republican or Democrat corruption should not be allowed to happen. If we as Americans continue to allow this to happen sets a very dangerous precedent which will destroy our country. There once was a time in this country that both sides could agree that what is dangerous for one is dangerous for the other. Now It's all about greed you are all failing this country both sides get together and reconcile or fail together.
What did they do?
Well said!
@@MrWorstNewsLol Ratfink doesn't even know he's just as brain dead as AOC
@@MrWorstNews Accept bribes, lavish vacations, home renovations, expensive sporting event tickets, private jet travel, country club membership just to name a few! Then not only didn't disclose this but didn't report any of it on their taxes!
Its not corruption when you dont get your way. Grow up.
Well said. This needs to be on every single network no matter who it is.
Exactly, sadly the networks are bought and paid for, as well. Very sad to see the level of greed moving around in the very government that tells every American where the lines are, they are a joke.
Little girl whining time?
I agree with you 💯percent
@@Soma81 These two SCOTUS Judges are Not above the law!!
People hate the truth!
Those Judges were paid off not to recuse themselves.
You people don't live in reality.
😆😆😆
LOL.
@@MrBeetsGaming You are projecting.
Yes, bribery has made it to the highest court in the land. We will all suffer.
Man, it is great to hear someone actually stand up and do something. With actual facts to back it up ❤
Why did they commit these acts?? Because they thought that they could get away with them with impunity.
they can....where have you been the past 248 years?
Ask Judge Cannon.
I think you mean without as impunity involves accountability
When someone gives you money or gifts or loans, remember nothing is free in this world.
Quick! Someone explain taxes to this man!
@@AbbiZika FREEDOM.!!! Small mind.
@@AbbiZika would you care to break it down for me my brother?
HEAR !! HEAR!!! The Japanese have a saying free is very expensive…🤨💙🇺🇸
Then ALL of congress: house & senate should and MUST be impeached by her standard.
AOC is clearly aware of where her impeachment efforts will go in this Congress but it is important that the criminal acts of these two justices see the light of day, that Americans know that these justices are not working for them but for the MAGA / Project 2025 effort and against Americans interests.
I agree - she knows that an impeachment has to pass through the house - which it won't since it's packed with MAGA Trump lovers but she is bringing it to light. That is her job and she's doing it very well!
@@rdharris802 now let’s do ole sloppy Joe! And make it an in-depth full audit of his finances.
History will record the garbage who will protect the crooked court. Conservatives; always on the wrong side of history.
@@johnyager1205I guess you can't stick to the subject at hand. Simpleton
@@johnyager1205there’s a long line of MAGA idiots including the cult leader himself to get to. What kind of dunce sides with people who think politicians should be allowed to accept ‘gratuities’. A bottomless pit of dumb.
The U.S. can never again proclaim other nations are "banana republics" or "corrupt". We are as bad or worse than many other countries. True patriots would recognize this isn't a Republican or Democratic thing... you are either in favor of upholding the law, or you are in favor of criminality.
Very well said 👍
In the case of the Trump trial in New York it is very much a Democrat thing. Ignoring the rule of law makes the dems guilty.
If you take a look at history, you'll find that people who claim to be patriots are virtually always working hard to destroy the nation they claim to love.
@@hjordisellis5132 Agreed, Our country is at a crossroads moving from a representative democracy to a hardline oligarchy like the Philippines under Ferdinand Marcos (1965-86) 1. Full presidential immunity. 2. No Public corruption safeguards(Clarence?). 3. Loss of federal agency oversight If you think these changes by the current Supreme Court are positive for American citizens and our democracy you are being naive.
So you admit Trump is unfit for running for any political office.
1000% agree with her. These justices walk around like nobody can touch them and it’s time somebody does something about it. There should be term limits for that office .
Not lies or opinions, there is plenty of evidence out there, doing research is super easy. This is a lack of critical thinking skills that is getting worse in this country.
Average cost of college in the U.S. in 2024:
Public four-year colleges: $29,080 for residents, $39,059 for out-of-state students.
Private four-year colleges: $45,284.
Community colleges (2-year schools): $18,669 for residents, $22,722 for out-of-state students1.
Undergraduate tuition & fees: $6,987 for State residents, $12,873 for out-of-state students in public schools, and $26,978 in private schools2.
Total annual costs: $26,027 at public in-state institutions, $27,091 at public out-of-state institutions, and $55,840 at private institutions3.
Now you know why they've destroyed the public education system
It doesnt matter how you vote. Laws in america arent for sale to the highest bidder. Just because you reach the supreme court doesnt mean that you can do whatever you want.

This is not about justice. It's because Trump got immunity. If he hadn't I guarantee you this would not have happened. AOC doesn't care about justice. She's just a puppet.
Good news however is that Republicans own the house of reps. This will go nowhere.
This sounds like a case for the IRS super deep dive!!!!!
I hope they kept their filings from the past twenty years!
Will these articles of impeachment pass the house?
Actually NY AG personally sent detailed info to both the IRS & State if NY. That’s the hush money business expense. These gifts, $, & travel are s separate matter.
@@mbords01 Only if Democrats win the House, Senate and the White House.
@@limitlesspursuit did you? Since we're all going to prosecute everyone we don't like now, you should remember that the people you don't like, also don't like you - are you going to be on top for ever?
💰 In 20 yrs, *Clarence Thomas raked in over $4M worth of private jet rides, expensive vacations, gifts, house for his mother, private school tuition for his nephew* and never declared them including his wife Ginny's *$680K/yr salary from the Heritage Foundation.*
Put his phat behind in Jail!
Heritage foundation is IMO a treasonist domestic terrorist organization.
I think that Clarence and Ginny must use a lot of their income to buy food. They both look pretty well fed.
😆😆😆
Yawn.
Where's the IRS when it comes to the rich!
They’ve been defunded by the Rs almost to the point of collapse. Thanks to Biden, they’re getting the support they need to claw back the $$ owed to the country!
What a stupid question.
👌🏼
The rich have lobbied to have the IRS underfunded and understaffed to render them barely capable of auditing the wealthiest tax evaders/violators
That is why the GOP votes to cut funding to the IRS, that way the IRS can not be staffed to go after the rich with their high priced lawyers.
Some one has to stand up to all the corruption before it gets overwhelmed to fix.
Lol 🤦
@@eckz8659what’s funny?
When every politician becomes a millionaire after being a “public servant” it’s not gonna get fixed
Then you agree Biden should be impeached for the hundreds of millions of dollars in bribes he's taken?
Thank you AOC!
This is what I like to see. No one, especially not Supreme court Justices should be allowed to be above the law.
🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦
@@eckz8659 You must do that often. Ever get any common sense pushed in to you?
I agree so we need to get Garland
Well by the democrats standard, she is a racist trying to impeach a black man.
You do know that the "no one above the law" comment is the laughable comment for anyone that has no argument.
Power without consequences corrupts completely.
The actual quote is "ABSOLUTE power corrupts ABSOLUTELY."
@@courtneydean69 Amen!
Everyone needs to see this!
It is truly about time
No One is Above The Law, that also applies to the Justices of the Supreme Court, and they all swore an oath to uphold the law.
Which they have.
@@eckz8659so you think there’s no evidence of those justices getting gifts and bribes?
@@eckz8659 Have not.
That oath sure hasn't stopped the entire Biden admin from breaking the law.
@@eckz8659 apparently not all of them
Both justices should be impeached and never serve in the Judicial system or any political office.
Why?
Would you be saying that if it was the leftist justices? Probably not. Because Sotomeyer has been caught with her hand in the cookie jar as well.
Agree and we should take Garland as well
Going to Jail...

@@michaelwittman2220He's not a SCJ
This is important to resolve, it’s about time we got the ball rolling. Good job 👏
If the Supreme Court justices can accept unlimited amounts of gifts without consequence, what's going to stop any other government employee from doing the same?
While they're at it they need to get rid of the electoral college...
👏👏👏👏👏 👏 ⚖️ Corrupted politicians in robes.

Actually criminal charges should be made against these justices for practicing medicine without a license.
Ketanji did admit she’s not a biologist so she doesn’t know what a woman is.
I doubt you’re a doctor either so maybe you shouldn’t be casting aspersions over abortion being decided by the states.
. You are wrong. Women know what is right without a medical degree. All the men out there saying abortions don't save lives. They need to get arrested for pretending they are knowledgeable doctors!

@@joancamp8431 the whole left side is with her. It’s the MAGA cult that’s going to stop the process.

No more refusing to even bring bills to the house for a vote like they did with the immigration reforms that a republican wanted introduced but the house would not allow it because trump told them no, don’t do it.
Their failure to recuse themselves only proves to me that they have no respect for the rule of law.
Finally! Why has it taken so long? Not that the house and senate is capable of doing the right thing but at least she is trying.

Probably both. But it seems some are not as this lady. Well ... first things first I guess.
Tell them, AOC! We stand with you. The swamps of the Supreme Court need to be drained for our constitution to hold.
She is making an argument with, complete sentences, paragraphs with distinct subject matter. She has the audacity to articulate, so we can clearly hear, and understand, what she’s saying . And , for goodness sake… how dare she not use a swear word!!!!
After watching the debates, it's a fresh breath!
@@CharlesJohnson-ui2pk she has only proven just how little she knows, or is willing to pretend she doesn't by claiming only these 2 judges are corrupt.

No it's about trying to wrestle the court back to her corrupt side.
It's about time someone else try to do something about this corrupt court! There is a lot of actions one can take to show their patriotism. For example, flying a flag the right way. Another such action is doing your part to protect and uphold the Constitution. Nothing may come of your efforts, AOC, but at least you try to root out the cancer.
I'm speaking to the audience here in UA-cam. Let's say that a federal judge in the US was to receive monies, gifts, vacations and loans from let's say a criminal businessman like a cartel overlord "El Chapo" in return for maybe a favorable judgment if El Chapo was to ever get arrested and brought before a federal court for prosecution. what would your opinion be?
That's not even remotely close to what she's alleging.
I'm using this as an example of what money, gifts can buy! Influence and favorable decisions. This is how corruption starts if left unchecked.
@@eckz8659oh but it is. And it’s worse because THE CALL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE HOUSE! it’s direct betrayal from these Americans to the rest of us.
