An attorney in Venice, California, filed a federal lawsuit on Saturday to bar former President Donald Trump from California’s 2024 presidential primary election, arguing that he is disqualified due to his alleged role in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot, according to a report.
The lawsuit argues that the Fourteenth Amendment states that no one can hold office who has previously taken an oath of office to support the Constitution and then “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” or gave aid to those who did, according to a Los Angeles Times report.
The attorney, Stephen Yagman, filed the lawsuit on behalf of a California voter identified as “A.W. Clark.”

Hmm, whatever happened to “plaintiff much show they suffered actual harm in order to have standing to file suit”?
How much you want to bet that judges don’t toss these baseless suits like they did all the election fraud lawsuits?
Oh noes Trump wont win California, like he would ever stand a chance in this sh*thole state anyway..these commie bastards must know that Trump is going to win in a freakin LANDSLIDE against Biden it wont even be close and they cant use covid anymore as their excuse
Democracy has not existed in Kalifornia for years.
Not even going to wait until the "evidence" is considered, eh?
Just "deem" him guilty and submit your bill.
They get liberal arts degrees and find out there’s no market for their “skills” and so it’s off to law skool!
Thus the avalanche of absurd lawsuits in the past 50 years
A baseline is important to frame the accurate context:
♦ Our government is controlled by corporations and financial interests who operate on an independent agenda, not in our interest.
♦ The RNC and DNC are private clubs inside the U.S. political system, who construct the illusion of choice as directed by their benefactors (donors).
The benefactors/donors in both instances are the same entities.
This reality forms the core of the Uniparty agenda that we see surface every day in government policy that runs counter to the interests of U.S citizens and voters. The two wings of the UniParty vulture are the RNC and DNC. Any entity that exists outside the framework of the modern political industry, is considered a threat.
WASHINGTON POST – […] Jason Torchinsky, a partner with the Virginia law firm Holtzman Vogel, has in recent days initiated conversations about the idea of trying to disqualify Trump with a range of figures, including a Democratic secretary of state, fellow election lawyers and a retired federal judge who has helped lead the push to question Trump’s eligibility, according to multiple people familiar with the calls, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations.
[…] Torchinsky’s firm has done legal work for the campaigns of former New Jersey governor Chris Christie and businessman Vivek Ramaswamy, as well as for Never Back Down, the political action committee promoting the presidential campaign of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis.
Torchinsky, a longtime GOP election lawyer who has also represented the Republican National Committee, is researching the issue not for Trump’s rivals but for Jacob Harriman, the founder of a nonpartisan service organization called More Perfect Union, Harriman said in a statement to The Washington Post.
“It is critical to understand if there is a legitimate risk of nominating a candidate who could be deemed to be ineligible for office,” Harriman said. Torchinsky declined to comment. (read more)
We The People are in an abusive relationship with government and the party system used to retain control and power. Once we accept that a disparate political structure exists above the election systems, a structure that runs the election systems through party/club rules, then we can begin to address how corrupt the illusion of choice has become.
In the biggest of big pictures, seeing this reality clearly is the gift from the era of Trump.
Yagman, according to the Times, was disbarred and served 29 months in federal prison after being convicted in 2007 for tax evasion, bankruptcy fraud, and money laundering, but his law license was later reinstated.
Hmmm, ok. Something tells me this is not going anywhere.
I could see some upside to California banning Trump from the ballot.
Its not like they will let him win California anyway or get the electoral votes.
Let’s reveal this fraudulent manipulated electoral sh**t-show for what it is.
smell the fear in the air
The lawsuit is for the GOP primary not the general election.
great but....who cares? Its a doomed effort. This has been tried many many times in the past and it has failed every single last time.
You can’t keep somebody off the ballot.
The 14th amendment would disqualify 90% of the left.
This will not pass courts, its just white noise.
A fine upstanding member of the Bar!!/s
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment does not cover the Presidency. It is not mentioned in the text and it is NOT an office UNDER the United States.
Thank you for carrying water for Joe Biden
“Guys, it is impossible for Trump to win California, I mean it’s not like the Democrats cheat at elections or anything”
