The 34-year-old posted to X and asserted the ruling as an “assault on American democracy”.
“The Supreme Court has become consumed by a corruption crisis beyond its control,” she wrote.
“Today’s ruling represents an assault on American democracy. It is up to Congress to defend our nation from this authoritarian capture. I intend on filing articles of impeachment upon our return.”
