If Trump is being persecuted for “instigating the rioting,” then Epps should have been as well. Since Epps was basically exonerated for his actions, then Trump should be too. That’s basic common sense application of the law, which shows this is nothing but a political stunt meant to keep Trump off the ballot in 2024, thereby denying tens of millions of Americans the right to vote for their candidate of choice, which is obviously election interference.
Good points.

They largely own the judicial system and many Soros backed prosecutors, the news media to shape news and make unhappy ones disappear, most book publishers, many woke corporations, the oversight of ballots and the vote counters in many places, the universities, K-12 education system, government employee unions, manufacturing and other unions, many state governors and a lot more.
They are not shy about bullying.
The omission speaks loudly & clearly that those two offices are not affected by Clause 3 of the 14th Amendment.
These people want to see an end to any opposition period, no Republicans will ever hold another elected position in any state, county or locally down to dog catcher.
Well, the (national) Pubbies seem perfectly fine with their actions.
Lets see how they put a stop to this.
Excerpt from george 76 post up thread:
“ Years ago, we first brought Norm Eisen’s name to national attention in the context of his work on color revolutions overseas and the fact that he was deploying the same tools as a lawfare operative to undermine Trump that he would use in the State Department to undermine foreign leaders deemed to be adversaries of the United States.”

Eisen was working on the 2014 color revolution in ukraine?
Seditious conspiracy in USA?

The 14th amendment mentions electors.
What oath do the electors for President and vice President take?
Maybe the national GOP is just fine with this. Have not heard voice one at the national level. But a bunch of critters are sure leaving.
While I'm not sure, answer me this. If Clause 3 of the 14th Amendment was supposed to cover the President & The Vice president, why would they mention electors but not mention those two political offices?
Are you trying to insinuate that it was an oversight as the reason they did not mention those two offices? Seems highly unlikely especially given that they did think to include electors. The south did represent a power if they could come together work in unison, to subvert an election.
That would be my guess as to why they would include electors.
I will admit that is speculation on my part, but I am fairly confident that it wasn't an oversight. But the truth of the matter is, they didn't include the offices of President & Vice President, but they remained silent for a reason. They could have specifically stated those two offices and how they were to be dealt with.
Could it be, that they didn't want to deny a leader who the majority of the nation might want, but the issue was to be dealt with by the people themselves perhaps with a court overseeing the arguments presented? You know somewhat akin to a legal escape hatch.
There are a lot of activist democrats who need to be flown to Gitmo shortly after noon on 20 Jan 2025.
agreed there is no deterrant, they do what they damed well please. Whe do the American people get some satisfaction?
“Michael Chertoff, Janet Napolitano, and Tom Ridge”
Note that two of these three are alleged Republicans.
Chertoff worked for Bush 41.
These are the people trying to destroy the current Republican party using the DHS, an agency we were told would never become a internal political police.
Funny that.
Not trying to imply it was an oversight, just wanted to know what oath the electors take, as compared to the oaths the other elected officials take.
As to why did they mention electors and not the offices of president and vice president, maybe it is because the electors are pledged to vote for the president and vice president that get enough votes in each state to get that state’s electoral votes.
DHS, thank you Bush and the GOP!
Okay, but I do believe there have been electors who have broken their oaths, and as far as I know there is no penalty for doing so.
