Question about ac compressor need help asap

Vehicle is a 02 bravada. At idle I can see the pulley or clutch on front of the ac compressor(SERPENTINE BELT ATTACHES) not really spinning but attempting to on its own. It will move a bit but not much. When I turn the ac on, its cold and this pulley will move. Could a bearing be going bad inside the pulley? If so, is it time to replace the compressor? Anyway to check it or clean it or any suggestions? It is making a gawd awful noise. Thanks

or you could get emry cloth in strips and sand the air gap between the pulley and the clutch to get rid of the rust thats more likely causing the noise.

I will try this. It hasnt been this loud since I replaced the clutch fan in an effort to fix it. Today it became crazy loud and just knocking like it was a diesel freightliner. Advance sells the bearing for $20 so dont know if that might be a way to go if this doesnt work.
