US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Democrat, New York) isn’t fazed by Congress’ failure to move forward with the impeachment of Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth.

From her perspective, Democrats have almost too many people to investigate once they gain control of Congress in January.

“There are so many criminals in this administration, it’s hard to figure out who should be, you know, the order of operations,” Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview with CNN’s Manu Raju on Tuesday.

“There are going to be many, many, many investigations,” she added. “I imagine many subpoenas, and we have to follow wherever the evidence takes us.”

    Yeah. bullshit.

    Democrats should be looking at making real change:

    1. Reducing Presidential powers substantially. No more pardons and vetos and executive orders.

    2. Sweeping reform with new harsh anti-corruption laws.

    3. Term limits for the house. two terms and done.

    4. Criminalize stock trading among congress.

    Fix the rot going forward…no? then they are just looking for their turn at the trough.

      Agreed, although I think before angthing they need to prosecute every single person from John Roberts to every single person Trump has pardoned. Put them all in ICE holding cells like the terrorist illegal aliens they are.

      Unfortunately it would take decades of non-uniparty rule to fix this so everyone under 30 can kiss their futures goodbye lol.

        It’s fucking ridiculous how everyone is counting how much money Trump has made in office and no one cares about Pelosi or Warren.

        Then the excuse is “oh, well it’s not illegal”. What does the term “lawmakers” mean?

          Warren made the CFBP…. Trump serially rapes children. Rick Scott is the biggest convicted fraudster and his company is still doing fine. There are far more Repuvlican fraudsters…. because its literally the entire party lol.

          I would sooner talk about Jeffries, Schumer, Fetterman, and many others who are literally treasonous do nothing bastards lmao
