  New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introduced articles of impeachment against far-right Supreme Court Justices Samuel Alito and Clarence Thomas on Wednesday, July 10, arguing that they have 'corrupted' the justice system. Eight House Democrats joined her effort as co-sponsors

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has called for the impeachment of Supreme Court Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito, citing their failure to disclose gifts and their involvement in cases with potential conflicts of interest. In an interview on CNN, AOC emphasized the need for accountability and criticized the Supreme Court for not adhering to the same ethical standards as other branches of government. She pointed out that Justice Thomas did not recuse himself from cases related to the 2020 election despite his wife's involvement in efforts to overturn the results, and both justices have accepted undisclosed gifts from individuals with business before the court. AOC's comments come amid growing calls for ethics reform within the Supreme Court.
