The House Dems need to demand a vote to decertify the 14th Amndmnt's prohibition against insurrectionists holding federal office, to enable #TheRapistTraitor to be seated, also per the 14th. Only Congress can allow him to take office. BUT THE GOP DOESN'T HAVE THE 2/3rd majority VOTES TO CARRY IT.

I think, to engage the disqualifying factor via the 14th it would take a conviction in criminal court.
Innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
I presume you recognize this phrase. The 14th amendment does not negate this precept.
Dems don't DO things, especially not good things that would help people.
(Yes they're still better than the alternative, but honestly not much at this point.)
Be solutions oriented.
Stop believing in santa and get to work, basically.
To fix it, primary the bastards. That party is a ghost ship. Let's board it and take the f*cker.
Like Iraq. Or their utter failures on M4A, or even holding trump accountable after his attempted coup. Dem inaction is as bad as rep action.

To incite, is: to be engaged in...
And, SCOTUS refused to address the evidence, they let it stand, so, his legal status in regards this, is: he, "having engaged in...by inciting..."
Thus,already convicted..

But only congress and spineless DEMS would let a treasonist rapist take office
(I'd be more enthusiastic, but reading legalese killed some of my braincells...so I'm healing.)
Follow JESSICA DENSON on YouTube. Contact your legislature
I’m afraid it’s the former…
The REPs know he's a cheat and liar but they will let him in so they can do what they want.
If the DEMs don't follow the rules they're as bad as REPs.
It’s WAY past time to fight fire with fire! All’s fair in love & war, & this ain’t love.
And then also 2020 where they invented excuses like "but what about the parliamentarian?" and didn't steamroller Joe manchin like they surely could have if they truly believed the fate of the nation was on the line.
And by the time it does, *if* it does, all us regular folk are gonna be way too deep in reality denial to even enjoy their misery.
So what do we have here? The fucking GOODS! (a proposal because we ain't lawmakers--but seriously, light the fire under their tails) https://bsky.app/profile/n1ghtmarica.bsky.social/post/3leg5dxrmw22z

That is the only explanation for seeing firsthand the events of the last decade+ and thinking there is going to be some political comeuppance spearheaded by the Democrats of all people.
I know only the republican party can make shit happen, unfortunately.
This is why the democratic party lost the election to a sexual assaulting multi felon con man. If the democratic party won't step up, we will always lose.
It's not the Democrats fault when Republicans controlled the Senate and REFUSED to even hold hearings on Obama's Supreme Court apppointment.
Grow up.
Come check muh feed!
Merry f'n late Christmas! https://bsky.app/profile/n1ghtmarica.bsky.social/post/3leg5dxrmw22z
What they can have instead is legislation removing the disqualification.
Neither will pass Congress... But at least one assumes he's disqualified from the start.
They have become increasingly mask off about how much they don't care about us. The sooner we accept that and move on the better.
You can’t shame them into taking action!

Dems demand a vote!
You can’t claim to believe in the constitution if you ignore what you can do what the constitution allows to save democracy!

None of the 5 constitutional requirements need a disqualifying vote.

They're not going to risk their careers for us.
Amnesty & Enforcement Bill Proposal hot off the PRESSES! ready to go!
If only.
#14thAmendmentSection3 is self-executing. Only a 2/3rds majority vote by Congress overrides it. That's Congress' ONLY role.
If Harris counts Trump's EVs, she's participating in a coup

I would focus on his words. Then let the GOP defend that. Just put it out there. No semantics. No rulings or lack thereof.
"A Massive Fraud of this type and magnitude allows for the termination of all rules, regulations, and articles, even those found in the Constitution. Our great ‘Founders’ did not want, and would not condone, False & Fraudulent Elections!”
It's much more dangerous to seat a person prohibited from becoming president again than not doing it.
If Harris counts his electoral votes she'll be participating in a coup.
The Electors obviously shouldn't present them to be counted.
Everyone in the whole process has responsibility.
As does every American that thinks the Constitution has any value.
EVERYTHING will be different if we allow this.
You think Harris should participate in handing the nation over to a coup? Like this is some perfectly ordinary "peaceful transfer of power"?
Even if you can't doing anything about a wrong, one can still stand up and say it's wrong.
Trump cannot become president again.
It’s a literal endless grudge of dumbass Dems in the pockets of CEOs… hitlery should have been 🔨 tbh
trying to run in the .I'd Terms. That is the reason DEMS have to be busy to foil that.
Unified healthcare was just a taste of what’s to come if they don’t do what’s right.

Imo it does. It mentions every everyone else how stupid do you have to be?
The remedy is in her hands. Honoring the Constitution should not be controversial or hard. It's there to protect us from exactly what we're faced with.

Congress needs to hold the vote required by Amendment 14.
I'm alaa from Gaza🍉.We are suffering from a real famine. My family and I are hungry,
I hope you reply to my message, and if you want to check me out via video call, I'm ready for that.🥹

Congress who can, and should fight, put the traitors into a corner with a vote. It's time to challenge the loopholes the weak republicans and MAGA treasonous to publicly make a choice.
When being polite gets you spit on, it's time to stop being polite
Republicans fuck everything up and reintroduce actual Nazism, the Dems then do next to nothing cause they just CANNOT learn, repeat, until Democracy dies.... Welcome to America.
They figured out that a law is only as powerful as the authority that enforced it.. and that's them right now.

So: Biden should pardon him for insurrection.
Because accepting a pardon legally means publicly declaring that you were guilty of the crime being pardoned. 😂
His advisors will tell him to absolutely not
… but he was also told not to look directly into the sun 😬
Biden has power, he could gum up the works etc , but no he will sit and wave as the USA vanishes .
Biden got more done than most could have and I'll support and revere him always. But, come-on where was the Justice Department during this administration? Space prevents further ideas.
What indeed can Congress do?
More pragmatically, what would THIS Congress do?
The 14th in this regard is impotent. Its Framers saw the prohibition as being self-evident but offered no apparatus to press this if challenged.
Dead Horse.
Nonetheless, and despite rhetorical quibbling, THIS Congress can and will do nothing re: the 14th on the issue. No lever to do so.
