“It’s self-evident. You saw it all,” Biden said shortly after landing in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, according to White House pool reports, when asked about the court case and at first saying he would not comment. “Now, whether the 14th Amendment applies, I’ll let the court make that decision.” The U.S. Supreme Court would handle the appeal of the Colorado decision expected from Trump. “But he certainly supported an insurrection,” Biden continued. “No question about it. None. Zero. And he seems to be doubling down on about everything.”
I personally think the Supreme Court is going to punt this issue and not address by declaring States have the right to determine their election laws, but Roberts is no doubt trying to figure out how he will spilt the baby of making sure Traitor Trump is the nominee (and 47th President) while also not declaring Trump is absolutely immune from the Law.
A majority of the court holds that Trump is disqualified from holding the office of president under Section Three of the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Trump has lived his whole purulent life remarkably, but not entirely, free of legal consequences. It's been the same since 2015 when he announced his decision to destroy the United States of America for allowing a black man to make fun of him at the 2012 White House Correspondents Dinner.
But, in an amazing realization of This One Weird Trick, Trump can not appear on the ballot in Colorado. The Colorado Supreme Court ruled 4-3 against the Traitor after reviewing the Colorado case against Trump;
The Electors and President Trump sought this court’s review of various rulings by the district court. We affirm in part and reverse in part. We hold as follows:
The Election Code allows the Electors to challenge President Trump’s status as a qualified candidate based on Section Three. Indeed, the Election Code provides the Electors their only viable means of litigating whether President Trump is disqualified from holding office under Section Three.
Congress does not need to pass implementing legislation for Section Three’s disqualification provision to attach, and Section Three is, in that sense, self-executing.
Judicial review of President Trump’s eligibility for office under Section Three is not precluded by the political question doctrine.
Section Three encompasses the office of the Presidency and someone who has taken an oath as President. On this point, the district court committed reversible error.
The district court did not abuse its discretion in admitting portions of Congress’s January 6 Report into evidence at trial.
The district court did not err in concluding that the events at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, constituted an “insurrection.”
The district court did not err in concluding that President Trump “engaged in” that insurrection through his personal actions.
President Trump’s speech inciting the crowd that breached the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, was not protected by the First Amendment.
¶5 The sum of these parts is this: President Trump is disqualified from holding the office of President under Section Three; because he is disqualified, it would be a wrongful act under the Election Code for the Secretary to list him as a candidate on the presidential primary ballot.
¶6 We do not reach these conclusions lightly. We are mindful of the magnitude and weight of the questions now before us. We are likewise mindful of our solemn duty to apply the law, without fear or favor, and without being swayed by public reaction to the decisions that the law mandates we reach.
For the time being Trump is off the Colorado ballot. Not that he'd win Colorado anyway. Of course, a lot of on-line liberal chatter is all doom and gloom about this decision, Oh no, they cry, this will galvanize his supporters, The Unjust Supreme Court will gut the 14th Amendment, Republican Neoconfederate states will now throw Joe Biden off of their ballot because of Hunter Biden's Laptop!
This IS NOT the wrong way to do it. It is entirely with the Law to exclude insurrectionists from holding office, let alone the Office of the President. And besides which it's time to use every conceivable means we have to keep him from power because Trump's supporters can not wait to put him into power. They yearn to get Stephen Miller, Mike Flynn, Chad Wolf, or any of these other "Little Eichmanns" back into the White House and they've promised to do unspeakable things and usher in an Era of Fascism in America. Anything we can do using the system to thwart that is not only justified but, necessary.
Some of this is justified consternation that We, the People find ourselves in this position at all. We shouldn't be here. We shouldn't be worried that in 2024 an outright Fascist Authoritarian who is in the throes of syphilis induced dementia has at least a 50/50 chance of getting into the White House.
Many terminally on-line liberals seem to think the only correct way to beat Trump is a straight-up rematch in the 2024 election. As though Joe Biden and Donald Trump should fight a noble and fair duel following the rules! Trump's already lost the popular vote twice, even with Israeli war crimes dragging down entisaism for Biden, Trump would lose it a 3rd time. They are unwilling or unable to see the Marching Fascism barreling straight towards us. Or believe they will be more or less unscathed by another Trump presidency.
Because ratfvcking Republicans don't intend for this election to be settled at the ballot box by the American voter but, by election fraud and outright criminal chicanery. It's not as though Republicans have ever held a free and fair election anyway. It's not as though Republicans don't cynically and successfully claim the rules mean they win and you lose. The Republican Party has made voting a demoralizing and difficult task precisely to ensure people do not vote, while also illegally disenfranchising thousands of likely democratic voters.
And understand if the Republicans had been successful in their One Weird Trick attempts in 2020 prior to the January 6th Insurrection, through the courts or via the House Vote or the Ron Johnson Fake Electors, or if Mike Pence had done what he yearned to do and declared Trump the Winner they would have declared Trump was still President and dared anyone to say he wasn't...

| We won't just stand around Next Time... |
In the run-up to the 2024 Presidential Election, Trump has already stated numerous times he plans to Weaponize the Federal Government to round-up and place millions of people into concentration camps. It's not hyperbole but, a full-fledged plan of action. Now, on-line rightwing trolls and Fash Curious claim its' just homeless bums, the mentally ill, and illegal immigrants Trump will terrorize and relocate into Camps by any means necessary.
But, always remember these Reactionary types say this to convince the Normies that Oh no no no, we're not coming for you! Not at all! You won't be next on the list after we:
- kick out the immigrants
- cast down the sodomites,
- place the homeless in Tents in the Nevada desert,
- re-educate teachers to teach PraegerU style patriotism,
- enslave and shackle women to ensure no pregnancy is ever "lost",
- emulate the IDF treatment of Gaza on Chicago, Baltimore, San Francisco, and other cities.
