Election Interference: Here are the Four Colorado Justices Who Voted to Exclude Donald Trump from the 2024 Ballot

Not unless there's objections raised, and there were. It happened before in the late 1800's.

Objections can only be raised by Representatives and Senators, and they did raise such an objection; which was being debated by both chambers when they were forced to go into recess because Trump's thugs broke into the Capitol.

And even in the 1800's election you allude to, the VP played no role other than to open all the certificates to be counted, which they did. Then Congress debated the matter until they worked out a backroom deal to decide the winner.
 
So why didn't Trump have DCNG called up?? The Defense Secretary reports directly to the president. The Army Secretary reports directly to the Defense Secretary.
Not the presidents issue, Trump can only activate NG troops to be available for use in DC, if USCP requests assistance........then its up to SecDef to deploy those NG troops as requested. It had to go through COC via pentagon................however, if you do some research, the original EO on presidential response and responsibilities eliminated COC issues and transferred call out directly to SecDef......and not through the pentagon.
The Army secretary reports to the Defense Secretary, who reports to the president. Not Nancy, not Bowser. The Army Secretary does not take orders from anyone else. And who's Commander-in-Chief of the army?
You're barking up dead tree..........do your self a favor and research what you have no clue about.........:dunno:
 
They were not told to stand down. No one gave them any such stand down order.
Nobody said to stand down...........Pelosi and Bowser had reservations on the deployment of NG troops, as I already proved.

Trump's own Secretary of the Army. The one person delegated the authority, by the office of the president, to call up the DCNG.
He wasn't the designated authority....................it's SecDef.

Prove me wrong.

And tell me, who has the responsibility of deploying NG troops in DC, when requested by USCP?

More bullshit. The Secretary of the Army had full authority on Sedition Day to call up the DCNG. He did not need the USCP to do so.

Again...


The D.C National Guard was formed in 1802 by President Thomas Jefferson to defend the newly created District of Columbia. As such, the Commanding General of the D.C. National Guard is subordinate solely to the President of the United States. This authority to activate the D.C. National Guard has been delegated, by the President, to the Secretary of Defense and further delegated to the Secretary of the Army. The D.C. National Guard is the only National Guard unit, out of all of the 54 states and territories, which reports only to the President.

Retard, I've proven you wrong repeatedly...

Even worse for you, on Sedition Day, the Defense Secretary did NOT have that authority. That was given after Trump's thugs stormed the Capitol. So you're wrong about that too. But sadly, you're ineducable, so none of this education you're getting will stick.
 
Lol. Hey, no worries. I can tell this does not compute with you two.

If you think it's okay for the Pentagon to stand down the DCNG, who were standing by and ready to go, and the proper requests were made by the USCP and DCMP, what can I say?

I guess it was okay for them to stand down... :cuckoo:
What are you talking about? The only conclusion that can be drawn here is that Trump is totally incompetent and would, if not for his father, be running a McDonalds franchise into the ground.

Well, you're wrong again. NG only supports DC Law Enforcement when asked.

Requests for Assistance for DCNG Support. SecDef's 1969 memorandum
provides SecArmy authority only to approve requests for assistance (RFA) from the civil
authorities of the District of Columbia
. This process has become known as the "Seven Step
Process," and entails (1) civil authorities make the request to DCNG; (2) DCNG submits the
request to SecArmy
; (3) SecArmy consults with SecDef, with DoD OGC conducting a legal
review; (4) SecArmy consults with the Deputy U.S. Attorney General (DAG); (5) DAG
advises SecArmy; (6) SecArmy approves request with parameters; and (7) CG, DCNG
informs requester of the approved support. Under DoD Directive 3025.18 (Defense Support
of Civil Authorities), and other laws, directives, and instructions, only SecDef has authority
to approve RFAs from federal agencies
. In accordance with (IAW) DoDD 3025.18, para
4.e., all RFAs shall be evaluated for:
• Legality (compliance with laws);
• Lethality (potential use of lethal force by or against DoD Forces);
• Risk (safety of DoD Forces);
• Cost (including the source of funding and the effect on the DoD budget);
• Appropriateness (whether providing the requested support is in the interest of DoD);
• Readiness (impact on DoD's ability to perform its other primary missions).
In addition to being the approval authority for RFAs from federal agencies, under DoD
policy, only the SecDef (with Presidential authorization) may approve requests from civil
authorities for DoD assistance in responding to civil disturbances


Chain of Command for DCNG. As provided in D.C. Code§ 4-409, the President is
the Commander-in-Chief of the District of Columbia National Guard (DCNG); but through
Executive Order 11485, dated 1 October 1969, he authorized and directed the Secretary of
Defense (SecDef) to "supervise, administer and control" the DCNG
. By memorandum
dated 10 October 1969, SecDef directed the Secretary of the Army (SecArmy) to act for him
in matters related to the District of Columbia (D.C.) Army National Guard, and directed
SecArmy "to command, through the Commanding General of the National Guard, all
operations of the Army and Air National Guard elements," and "after consultation with
[SecDef] and subject to the direction of the President as Commander-in-Chief, and in
accordance with the Interdepartmental Action Plan for Civil Disturbance
, may order out the
National Guard under Title 39 of the District of Columbia Code to aid the civil authorities of
the District of Columbia.
" The President appoints and commissions the Commanding
General (CG) of the DCNG, and may remove the CG from office at any time.

This authority to activate the D.C. National Guard has been delegated, by the President, to the Secretary of Defense and further delegated to the Secretary of the Army.

Using a PR page for the DC NG as a source isn't the wisest move, Ace.
