A judge in Las Vegas, Nevada, is facing disciplinary charges over a series of social media posts. After the charges were filed, the judge posted again: a selfie captioned with defiant Cardi B lyrics.

Clark County District Court Judge Erika Ballou was hit with two charges by the Nevada Commission on Judicial Discipline on Jan. 24.

For each charge, the judge stands accused of violating four specific ethical rules and is accused of violating five separate rules in total.
