AOC checks in with a head scratcher.
Sandy Cortez, never shy and never informed, backs packing SCOTUS and her reasoning is
The idea that nine people, that a nine-person court, can overturn laws that … hundreds and thousands of legislators, advocacy and policymakers drew consensus on … we have to … just ask ourselves, I think as a country, how much does that current structure benefit us? And I don’t think it does,” she said.
Okay, She doesn’t explain how a 13 member court solves that problem.
Which, of course, is not a problem since Marbury vs. Madison in 1801 laid down the foundation of Judicial Review interpreting the Constitution in a unanimous decision written by Chief Justice John Marshall;
.... Marshall stated that denying the supremacy of the Constitution over Congress's acts would mean that "courts must close their eyes on the constitution, and see only the law.And this, he said, would make Congress omnipotent, since none of the laws it passed would ever be invalid...
I’m glad AOC comments are not ignored.
They don’t reflect much intelligent thought on her part, if any at all.
