"Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized Justice Alito's recent remarks as "politicized" in a tweet.
Alito had joked about global leaders' shock at the overturning of Roe v. Wade.
Ocasio-Cortez said SCOTUS is in a "legitimacy crisis" and said the remarks are "alarming."
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez criticized into Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito on for "alarming" remarks he made about world leaders reacting to the overturn of Roe v. Wade.
Ocasio-Cortez tweeted a clip from Alito's speech at a conference on religious liberty in Rome on July 21, in which Alito joked about how figures like UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson, French President Emmanuel Macron, and Prince Harry had reacted to the decision.
She said the comments were "politicized" and demonstrated a "legitimacy crisis" in the court.
She also called on Alito to provide an update into the court's investigation into how the Roe v. Wade decision was leaked, an extremely unusual lapse in its procedures.
"Remember: it was Alito's opinion that leaked," she wrote. "That fact paired with his politicized remarks below should be alarming to anyone. The Supreme Court is in a legitimacy crisis. Chief Justice Roberts has a responsibility to share the progress & results of SCOTUS' leak investigation.""
