Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) suggested on Wednesday that Supreme Court justices could become impeachment targets when Democrats take control of Congress in January.
AOC is accusing the Court of having “legalized” President Donald Trump’s alleged criminal conduct.
The New York Democrat made the remarks during an interview with CNN’s Manu Raju following Democratic victories in last week’s midterm elections.
She was also asked whether Democrats would pursue the impeachment of Secretary of War Pete Hegseth.
“There are so many criminals in this administration, it’s hard to figure out who should be, you know, the order of operations,” she said.
“There are going to be many, many, many investigations. I imagine many subpoenas, and we have to follow wherever the evidence takes us.”
Raju then asked whether Democrats would attempt to impeach Trump himself.
“I mean, I think we should leave all options on the table. Absolutely,” Ocasio-Cortez responded.
She then turned her attention to the Supreme Court.
“I mean, of course, this Supreme Court as well has also kind of legalized a lot of his criminality,” she said, before adding: “We’ll see. We’ll approach it, but I think all options are on the table.”
