Justice Jackson's big picture view -- A Martian arriving here from another planet would see these circumstances and surely wonder: “what good is the Constitution, then?” https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24pdf/24a884_8n59.pdf #injunctions

Reminds me of how they got DJT into office despite CLEAR prohibition by Constitution (14.3).
SCOTUS made up out of whole cloth suggesting the BS that Congress needs to invoke 14.3 rather than just abide by it like any other provision (ie. age). They are attacking, not protecting the Constitution.
To be clear, the Constitution is a smart document. 14.3 even gave a remedy to an adjudicated insurrectionist, allowing the disability to be REMOVED by 2/3 vote of Congress. To say that it needed to be invoked by CONGRESS was totally invented, yet that is what SCOTUS implied in the Colorado case.

Very very un-American.
Very very corrupt SCOTUS.
