following Supreme Court immunity ruling

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 7/1/2024 1:57:14 PM

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) plans to draft articles of impeachment after the Supreme Court ruled former President Donald Trump may have some immunity from prosecution related to actions he took in the aftermath of the 2020 election. “The Supreme Court has become consumed by a corruption crisis beyond its control,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a post to X on Monday. “Today’s ruling represents an assault on American democracy. It is up to Congress to defend our nation from this authoritarian capture.” “I intend on filing articles of impeachment upon our return,” the New York Democrat said.

"...an assault on American democracy" which you define as anything that displeases, inconveniences or obstructs the power of democrats in any way, thereby resulting in a foot-stomping tantrum. Silly twit.

Can a congress-kritter be impeached for terminal stupidity? If so, at least 3/4 of the democratic house membership would qualify. It would be hard to prioritize the top 10 but occasional cortex and mad Maxine Waters would be near the top. So many come to mind it is hard to choose.

Well, smarty pants AOC, if the President does not deserve immunity from prosecution for actions taken as a part of their constitutional duties, should the same immunity also be taken away from snarky members of Congress? Don't forget, members of Congress also have immunity for things that they say and do as a part of their jobs a elected representatives. This "immunity" protects them when saying and doing some very inflammatory things or blatant defamation that would get many people sued or thrown in jail. Be careful what you wish for as what's good for the goose is good for the gander.

Re #38, Nutty, Nasty Nancy DID "impeach" a former President, but really, beyond the Demonrat drones who followed her commands to "vote for impeachment", no one took it seriously. I'm not sure that the question has actually been answered in any legitimate way. I doubt that the founding fathers had intended inpeachment to be applied to Presidents not in office, but ....some real lawyers would have to look at that one. And Nutty, Nasty Nancy's Clown Midway Sideshow doesn't shed an legitimate light on the subject.

Until the past 24 hours, Nicolás Maduro Moros and other Venezuelan high-ranking individuals in the Maduro regime ran the Cartel of the Suns (Cartel de los Soles). Now that the U.S. has penetrated Venezuela’s defenses to capture and arrest Maduro, things have changed. Maduro and his regime had corrupted the institutions of that country, including its military, its intelligence apparatus, its legislature, and its judiciary, all to aid his cartel’s massive criminal operations. The Cartel de los Soles originated in Venezuela, and has been involved in the illicit drug trade, human smuggling and trafficking, extortion, sexual exploitation of women and children, and money laundering, along with other criminal activities.
