EXCERPT:
OCASIO-CORTEZ: “I mean, what Justice Clarence Thomas wrote there, I believe, is profoundly disrespectful to — I just think it was profoundly disrespectful to his colleague. It includes sweeping assumptions about her worldview, whereas when you look at what the response was from Justice Ketanji Brown, we saw that her dissent was grounded in fact, it was grounded in the facts of the case. It did not disparage Clarence Thomas’ overall worldview, but, as a matter of fact, a nuanced critique of his analysis of the facts of the case. But for him to come out and insinuate that her opinion is due to some sort of inferior or less than, you know, less than really thought out of a stance, I think it’s profoundly insulting. And I think that he really demonstrated his character, frankly, and his worldview in that critique, himself."
