Insurrection, really? Does anybody believe that this country could be overthrown with sticks and stones? There was no insurrection. I was just a mostly peaceful demonstration. That declaration is based on the Democrats constantly calling Blue city riots, mostly peaceful.

Yeah the buffalo horns is fantasy but Congress thwarting the will over their resentments IS insurrection
Try it loud mouth chumps
Try it.

 

[RoshawnMarkwees]

Even if "insurrection" had taken place, how would Trump have "engaged" in it? Did he enter the Capitol building on Jan. 6?

Democrats don’t need proof. They just accuse and parrot, accuse and parrot.

 

[The Duke]

A media trial balloon? Will the Democrat moonbats bite?

 

[daveman]

I don't see in law where the congress can do that. There would be another Jan.6th protest if that happened.

And they wouldn't forget their weapons at home, either.

 

[The Duke]

Fact. America is done playing games. The future of us all is at stake here.

HE DIDN'T SEND THE GO HOME PEACEFULLY TWEET AS SOON AS HE SHOULD HAVE HE MAY AS WELL HAVE EXECUTED NANCY PELOSI (PBUH) PERSONALLY

There, did I get that right, USMB Democrats?

 

[daveman]

As far as I can see the majority of Congress voted that Chump is an insurrectionist. Seems they are the sole judge.

They can vote that the sun comes up in the west, too. Doesn't mean it happens.

 

[daveman]

Democrats believe that anything Democrats do is democracy.

Democrats are retarded.

But the congress at time of inauguration will be wholly republican. I don't see him having any issues.

Besides, he was never charged under the insurrection act.

I doubt many of these whiners are really Americans but if they are, please leave ASAP, before it's too late and Trump rounds you all up and makes you eat your granola without almond milk or something even more horrible.

The Constitution provides that an oath-breaking insurrectionist is ineligible to be president. This is the plain wording of Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. “No person shall … hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath … to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.” This disability can be removed by a two-thirds vote in each House.

14th Amendment, section 5:
The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article.

Federal law, enacted by Congress:
Title 18-CRIMES AND CRIMINAL PROCEDURE
PART I-CRIMES
CHAPTER 115-TREASON, SEDITION, AND SUBVERSIVE ACTIVITIES
S2383: REBELLION OR INSURRECTION
Whoever incites, sets on foot, assists, or engages in any rebellion or insurrection against the authority of the United States or the laws thereof, or gives aid or comfort thereto, shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than ten years, or both; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

This is a criminal law; for the consequences to take effect, the accused must first be convicted in criminal court.
No one, much less Trump, has been indicted, tried or convicted of insurrection re: Jan 6.

Only with weapons. People would die.

 

[M14 Shooter]

Only with weapons. People would die.

At this point, Democrats have only one option to prevent Trump from taking office:
Violence
Should they chose this option, they invite violence against them.
I don't think they understand what this means.

In order to engage in a rebellion against the power of the United States, there has to be an actual ability to accomplish it. Theory doesn’t get you that nor does intent

Congress can't block Trump from taking office.

It means civil fucking war. Unfortunately, this isn't going to happen.

Motive, opportunity, means.

More specifically, it means someone will fight them.
They aren't used to that.

I don't think anyone is used to American vs. American.
