AOC Calling For The Supreme Court To Be ABOLISHED!

Uncategorized

On Thursday, far-left politician Alexandria Ocasio Cortez called for “reforms or abolishes” legislative filibuster after the Supreme Court curbs the capabilities of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Said it should regulate emissions from power plants without Congressional approval.

In a 6-3 Ruling, the Supreme Court decided that the Clean Air Act is no longer an appropriate vehicle for the EPA to curtail greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.

AOC’s filibuster frenzy included a tweet that read “Catastrophic. A filibuster carveout is not enough. We need to reform or do away with the whole thing, for the sake of the planet.”

She also said “find your Senator. If they only say they’re ‘open to reform,’ that’s not enough. We need a clear position. If their position isn’t abolished or talking filibuster, or if their answer isn’t clear, CALL THEM.”

The High Court’s decision limits how far the executive branch can go in forcing new environmental regulations on its own.

Here’s what Chief Justice John Roberts said in the Court’s opinion, referencing Section 111 of the Clean Air Act:

“Capping carbon dioxide emissions at a level that will force a nationwide transition away from the use of coal to generate electricity may be a sensible ‘solution to the crisis of the day,’ But it is not plausible that Congress gave EPA the authority to adopt on its own such a regulatory scheme in Section 111(d).” 

“A decision of such magnitude and consequence rests with Congress itself, or an agency acting pursuant to a clear delegation from that representative body.”

Democratic New York Rep. Mouth-Breather also tweeted a link to a PBS article listing what each Democrat in the Senate has said about changing or ending the filibuster.

She added in the tweet:

“Here’s a tracker. Now, go down this list and find your Senator. If they only say they’re ‘open to reform,’ that’s not enough. We need a clear position. If their position isn’t abolished or talking filibuster, or if their answer isn’t clear, CALL THEM.”

AOC also suggested that callers “be polite and firm,” and said that “if your Senator DOES support reform or abolishment, call and THANK THEM. Trust me, honey works with vinegar. It emboldens their fight.”

Meanwhile, Joe Biden on Thursday launched a vicious attack on the Supreme Court at a post-NATO summit press conference in Madrid, Spain.

Joe Biden called the Supreme Court “outrageous” and “destabilizing” and called for suspending the filibuster in the Senate to allow passage of legislation legalizing abortion.

“…And if the filibuster gets in the way, it’s like voting rights, it should be, we provide an exception for this. We except, we require an exception to the filibuster for this action,” said Biden.
