Let's make something clear.

[Mikeoxenormous]

They don't see the irony.

Says the guy who doesnt see the irony...

 

[Crepitus]

Not really. She could have simply chanted "INSURRECTIONIST" three time and he's off the ballot.

'Fraid it doesn't work that way.

 

[Mikeoxenormous]

Arbitrarily removing Biden's name as retribution for Trump's name being removed under Sec 3 of the 14th is just a fantasy entertained by fascists.

Not at all, they can remove him for the 25th amendment also.

 

[Kondor3]

Nonsense.

OK... tell us... what aspect(s) of the OP were inaccurate?

 

[Kondor3]

Goody, wait til you hear what the Red States remove Biden from the ballot for.

Your rules.

Your game.

You will hate it.

You not only need to remove Biden from the ballot... but you need to do so in a manner that will withstand judicial review.

And so far Sleepy Old Uncle Joe has committed no offense that can defensibly be used to undertake such a removal.

Why go to all that trouble if you're just going to waste your time and money getting laughed out of court? (again)

 

[MisterBeale]

Trump and the rioters referenced that on January 6th.

Oh yeah? I hadn't heard that.

Post a link to me on that.

The indisputable evidence proves Trump was involved in an attempt to overturn the election. An act of insurrection. That evidence was considered by both the CO SC and the ME SoS and found to be sufficient to disqualify your Dear Leader. Your efforts in obscuring that essential truth have failed.

Strange how your claim of "indisputable evidence" of some insurrection you insist took place was never a charge brought against any defendant.

That's the problem with your, "....because I say so", claims. They're just pleadings intended to calm an emotional requirement that there is some vast conspiracy underway because events don't play out as you want.

 

[Rawley]

'Fraid it doesn't work that way.

Yup. THat's how it worked

 

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Bullshit

Yes that is your opinion of the 14th.

Historical precedent also confirms that a criminal conviction is not required for an individual to be disqualified under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment. No one who has been formally disqualified under Section 3 was charged under the criminal “rebellion or insurrection” statute (18 U.S.C. § 2383) or its predecessors. This fact is consistent with Section 3’s text, legislative history, and precedent, all of which make clear that a criminal conviction for any offense is not required for disqualification. Section 3 is not a criminal penalty, but rather is a qualification for holding public office in the United States that can be and has been enforced through civil lawsuits in state courts, among other means.

Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment does not expressly require a criminal conviction, and historically, one was not necessary. Reconstruction Era federal prosecutors brought civil actions in court to oust officials linked to the Confederacy, and Congress in some cases took action to refuse to seat Members. Congress last used Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment in 1919 to refuse to seat a socialist Congressman accused of having given aid and comfort to Germany during the First World War, irrespective of the Amnesty Act. The Congressman, Victor Berger, was eventually seated at a subsequent Congress after the Supreme Court threw out his espionage conviction for judicial bias. Recently, various groups and organizations have challenged the eligibility of certain candidates running for Congress, arguing that the candidates’ alleged involvement in the events surrounding the January 6, 2021, breach of the Capitol render them ineligible for office. No challenges have to date resulted in the disqualification of any congressional candidate. A New Mexico state court, however, has removed Otero County Commissioner County Griffin from office and prohibited him from seeking or holding any future office based on his participation in, and preparation for, the January 6 interruption of the election certification.

Absent evidence in contradiction of CREW's assertion I suspect Trumpleton's will ineffectually attack CREW and or the CRS. It is the Trumpian way. When facts and evidence fail them they rely on what amounts to character assassination. Which is why Trump attacks the media, anyone who opposes him, and most especially those like Jack Smith who are working to hold Don accountable for his illegal actions.

Furthermore, quite a bit has been made about the removal of a candidate's name from the ballot being anti-democratic. Yet the Constitution itself tells us that it is the conduct that gives rise to disqualification under the 14th Amendment that is anti-democratic. From the moment Trump began the anti-democratic act of conspiring to steal the election he violated his oath of office and forfeited his right to once again run to be the prez.

Please

All it takes is a Federal -level declaration of a State of Insurrection from an authoritative Federal source.

Having incited or participated in such an Insurrection is all that is required... no formal indictment or conviction is needed.

One need look no further than the thousands of Confederates - never charged or convicted - to realize the truth in that.

Legal Precedent is everything under such circumstances.

Fortunately for the Orange Baboon-God and his a$$-licking minions, no such formal Federal-level Declaration exists.

Orange Baboon God. Do you leftists hear how asinine you sound?

You better prepare yourself. Trump has an excellent chance of defeating Biden, and he will begin to dismantle the damaging, leftist agenda. He will start with the illegal invasion from the South.

Quite the opposite. The DOJ's thousands of criminal charges confirm it wasn't an insurrection.

 

[berg80]

Of course Section 3 of the 14th amendment was designed to keep (Democrat Seditionists, Rebels) from being able to run for office. I just dont think President Trump 45, was a Democrat Seditionist, Rebel.

He is a Repub who engaged in the seditious act of insurrection. Glad I could help.

He will start with acts of retribution against those who tried to hold him accountable for his crimes.

OP constitutional doc's claim it's only ONE source

Were mike and rawley at J6?

Your willful ignorance is showing again.

 

[Rawley]

He is a Repub who engaged in the seditious act of insurrection. Glad I could help.

And yet, the most partisan Special Counsel didn't charge him with either sedition or insurrection. Odd that.

 

[Rawley]

Were mike and rawley at J6?

Brilliant. Just fucking brilliant. Kudos
