#USPoli #14thAmendment

#debtceiling #msnbc Pres. #Biden Just needs to Invoke the #14thAmendment.
Or, maybe, Mint some Trillion Dollar Coins? LOL. Maybe, even something happens miraculously on May 9th?
Seriously, though even, if #McCarthy wants a deal? It's dead in Senate or on Pres. Veto Desk. The Speaker can't negotiate any lower than what he has presented in the bill to his right flank. He's got a very slim vote margin. So, clock is ticking. Even a month extension is just kicking #default until later in the summer.

"Greene accused the "outraged left" of sharing the poll and trying to "tank it" and celebrated the 43 percent of people who backed America engaging in a national divorce." She apparently never heard of or cares about the #14thAmendment #MAGArepublicanExtremists #GOPtraitorsToDemocracy

In 1919 the House refused to seat Victor Berger after he was found guilty of #EspionageAct violations for publishing statements espousing socialist opposition to U.S. involvement in World War I.The House took these statements as giving “aid and comfort” to enemies during the war. #14thAmendment

In 1868 the House refused to seat John Young Brown of Kentucky, finding that he had given “aid and comfort” to the enemy by publicly suggesting that anyone who joined the Union Army should be “shot down in their tracks.” #14thAmendment #TraitorTrump

New Mexico county trial court recently summarized the historical understanding of “insurrection” as: “an assemblage of persons, acting to prevent the execution of one or more federal laws, for a public purpose, through the use of violence, force, or intimidation by numbers.” #14thAmendment #TraitorTrump

The #14thAmendment has been used before. Giving aid and comfort” has generally been given a similar definition to “engaging,” to the extent that both can involve voluntarily acting in ways that support insurrection. In 1867 the House refused to seat John D. Young of Kentucky, finding that he had given aid and comfort by, among other things, sharing information that led to the capture of Union soldiers. #TrumpTreason

New Petition Pressures US House Members Not to Seat #GOPInsurrectionists in 2023 https://www.commondreams.org/news/2022/12/17/new-petition-pressures-us-house-members-not-seat-gop-insurrectionists-2023 New Petition Pressures US House Members Not to Seat #GOPInsurrectionists in 2023
The petition argues that Republican Seditious Reps. Paul Gosar, Lauren Boebert, and Marjorie Taylor Greene "are ineligible to hold future public office" under the #14thAmendment

Trump expressed solidarity with Jan. 6 seditionists AFTER federal convictions this week. Trump is giving aid and comfort to seditionists, which makes Trump ineligible for federal office under the Constitution.

The US has never had free speech. It is a misnomer. You cannot yell, “Fire!”, in a crowded theatre, you cannot libel someone, you cannot say shit on network tv - or show a woman’s nipple. #14thAmendment
