@buffetsalpha@JessicaValenti too bad immigration is going to be severely curtailed & i guess those promised “mass deportations” will kill off any remaining options
@gilbert1925@Andy They won’t be able to blame Democrats for what’s about to happen. I don’t think they’ll have to wait very long to find out just how bad it’s going to get either. It’s just unfortunate we will have to suffer the consequences for their mistake
@hindsightis2021@MarkHamill It’s gonna take them a while to figure it out. The boulder is only just starting to come lose but it’ll start rolling down that mountain soon enough & they’ll still be standing at the bottom cheering as it races towards them
@jahsounds How anyone with a daughter, anyone who loves someone who is lgbtqia, anyone with a conscience (and the list goes on) could vote for anyone except a democrat since 2008 is beyond my ability to even begin to comprehend
Here’s a brilliant breakdown of the disqualification clause by @JohnBonifaz, president of @FSFP, an organization dedicated to fighting for the rights of the people to have their voices heard in our democracy. If you’re not following him/them, please do:
BREAKING: Donald Trump is hit with a brutal Friday bombshell as lawyers from the prominent conservative Federalist Society publish a paper declaring that Trump MUST be banned from running for president “under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.”
But it gets WAY worse for Trump…
In their brutal paper, the Federalist Society accuses Trump of treason for “engaging in or gave aid and comfort to an insurrection against the constitutional government” when he incited the deadly January 6 insurrection as part of his failed coup attempt.
Adding insult to injury for Trump, the Federalist Society argues that Section 3 of the 14th Amendment — known as the insurrection clause — is "self-executing, operating as an immediate disqualification from office, without the need for additional action by Congress. It can and should be enforced by every official, state or federal, who judges qualifications. It covers a broad range of former offices, including the presidency. And in particular, it disqualifies former President Donald Trump, and potentially many others, because of their participation in the attempted overthrow of the 2020 presidential election.”
The clause states that "no person shall be a senator or representative in Congress, or elector of president and vice president, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof."
Last September, a New Mexico judge ordered the removal of a county commissioner who took part in the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. The decision marked the first time since 1869 that a court disqualified a public official under Section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
Now, it appears that it may be used against Trump — the mastermind who orchestrated the insurrection.
Please retweet and ❤️ if you think that Trump MUST be banned from running for office ever again — and consider joining the growing exodus to Tribel, a woke new Twitter competitor that banned Trump for life and is exploding in popularity because Elon Musk banned Tribel’s Twitter account — but he forgot to ban this link to download the new Tribel app: https://t.co/0c9FDbB14A
To my friends in Dallas who are asking: I do not know whether our @ABCNetwork affiliate @wfaa cut away from my monologue tonight intentionally or inadvertently but I will find out. In the meantime, here's what you didn't get to see https://t.co/tqfHoBHMwN
