Washington bureau chief David Smith had a quick question-and-answer session today with Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in the House corridors:

Q: DO YOU SUPPORT IMPEACHMENT?



“I do. I have for quite some time now and I think that the grounds have been there for quite some time but the case is really getting to a larger point that we haven’t seen before.”



Q: WHAT OF NANCY PELOSI’S RELUCTANCE?



“I mean, we’ll see. I know that the conversation is really changing this week in the caucus and so we’ll see where the speaker lands.”



Q: WOULD YOU ENDORSE BERNIE SANDERS FOR PRESIDENT?



“I’m not close to an endorsement announcement any time soon. I’m still trying to get a handle on my job. It seems like ages but I’m just five months in and we have quite some time. The debates are in the summer and our first primary election for the entire country isn’t until next year.”



Q: WOULD YOU ENDORSE JOE BIDEN?



“I’d be hard pressed to see that happen, to be honest, in a primary.”
