Potentially you would end up with parallel legislature but dressed in judicial robes.

Yep, her position would help separating the US into two, or more, independent states with state laws being supreme. Florida would be a first candidate with their new anti-riot law.

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

She's too stupid to know she's attacking the main strategy the left has used to enact their agenda for the last half-century.

She hates when she doesn't get her way, but her intellect bounces well.

Hmmm.. Sounds like AOC does not understand CHECKS AND BALANCES.

So, would AOC still believe that the courts do not have ability to override the Congress if the members of voted by a vast majority that she should be put to death without a trial?

Despite not liking her, I would not want to destroy the freedoms and CHECKS AND BALANCES that all Americans enjoy under the U.S. Constitution.

qaz123 :" Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has backed Democrats’ effort to pack the Supreme Court by adding four new seats that would be filled by President Joe Biden,
arguing the courts should not be allowed to overturn laws passed by Congress. "

I agree that she is dumber than 'a box of rocks'.
That goes to show you the value of her education at what used to be a reputable university.
This clearly demonstrates that she has no knowledge of the government position that she currently holds,
nor understands that all three branches of government are supposed to be 'co-equal', or balanced in a true democracy.
Furthermore, she has no understanding of the significance of tradition, or constitutional balance of power.
What a Doofus ! I hope NYC is proud of what, not who,.. they elected !

The first two things I thought about when she said "Courts Should Not Overrule Legislature."

I think she just forgot to add ". . . except when it promotes a leftist agenda."

The quantities of Planck length (1.6 x 10-35 meters) and Planck time (10−44 seconds), are the smallest determinate quantity in those units.

AOC has now demonstrated her IQ is now the smallest measureable unit of intelligence.

Apparently they don’t teach anything about checks and balances and the 3 branches of government in bartender school.

“In the interest of transparency, I think she’s hot. Dumber than a gigantic box of rocks but hot. Anywho....”

She is definitely not hot, but she is dumb.

A Demonrat espousing that courts shouldn't overturn laws? That's the funniest thing I've heard all day.

If they will agree to void all decisions overturning laws passed by the people since 1947 I’m in!
