"The unchecked corruption crisis on the Supreme Court has now spiraled into a Constitutional crisis threatening American democracy writ large. Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito’s pattern of refusal to recuse from consequential matters before the court in which they hold widely documented financial and personal entanglements constitutes a grave threat to American rule of law, the integrity of our democracy, and one of the clearest cases for which the tool of impeachment was designed," tbe lawmaker says.

The Presidency is a dead end. If you want her to be in a seat with some pull, how about AOC for Speaker of the House.

For some reason I can't read "Speaker of the House" without getting Master of the House stuck in my head.
