Forty-one House Democrats filed a bill on Thursday to bar former President Donald Trump from running for president in 2024, citing section 3 of the 14th Amendment.
“Donald Trump very clearly engaged in an insurrection on January 6, 2021 with the intention of overturning the lawful and fair results of the 2020 election. You don’t get to lead a government you tried to destroy,” Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI) wrote in a press release:
Even Mitch McConnell admits that Trump bears responsibility, saying on the Senate floor that ‘[t]here’s no question, none, that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day.’

Each time they come up with something like this, I think: "These guys are so terrified of him ---- we HAVE to get him back in office to see what they're hiding!"

Looks like a bill of attainer which would be prohibited under Article I Section 9 of the Constitution. Every signator should be held to explain why they would violate the Constitution.

They are terrified of him. Evidently he knows a lot about them and they know he will talk eventually. I have never seen such an onslaught to try and destroy one man in my life. Almost every online news site spouts lies and vitriol about him. Obama is running this destruction, along with Donna Brazeal and Susan Rice. Drip drip destruction of this country.

They’re all scared ****less because President Trump— whatever his flaws— and people like DeSantis and Jim Jordan and Devin Nunes have their number. And the people know it.
They’re crooks.

Every time those traitors get their hands on a word they use it so often and so badly it becomes meaningless. Collusion is one example. Migrant is another. Add insurrection to the list. If there had been an insurrection they'd know it. We are the best armed civilians in the history of the world. If we decide to do an insurrection the casualties would be in the thousands or more.
But go ahead. Keep being the stinking communists you are. Keep undermining everything sacred in America. You can bet your name is on a list.

not even a bill of attainder, this is right out of the Marxist thirdworld tinpot dictator playbook. claim you are a democracy while making it illegal to vote for any of your opponents.
it is also scary that with 75% of all congressman beibg lawyers that this bill ever even saw the light of day. Congress does not have the power to deem whether any defendant is guilty of anything. they caan investigate but it is the executive offices responsibility to prosecute and only the judicial branch can convict.
it appears that these 41 mental giants have misread the amendment. A vote of 2/3 of both houses can remove the restriction so a convicted officer can run for future office, but they cannot vote to deny anyone who meets constitutional criteria from running They also cannot deem anyone ineligible by passing a simple bill.
Fascist idiots. It would be laughable if they were not so dangerous.

As my black-sheep uncle would've said of Mitch, ''He's a liar and his feet don't match.'' Never did know what that meant, but it sounds about right for our professional liar.

This is too easy. Every Republican should vote on a bill banning any Demzi from running and say "you set the precedence".

They did the same to MTG. She fought and won. DJT will not be stopped by these
llittle people. He's in. He's out. He's down now. No matter what they might try,
success is fleeting and they are drowning in their own 'malarkey'.

Hang on here! FTA: 'No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President… who, having previously taken an oath… shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.' It appears that PDJT cannot be 'an elector'. Doesn't say he can't be 'elected'. Electors vote in the Electoral college.

Classic definition of what a Bill of Attainder is! But then again, it's in the Constitution and we know that only the parts they like are included!

It's the Democrats'sociopathic insistence in destroying Donald Trump that is the greatest inspiration to support him. The Dems are even pushing DeSantis... DESANTIS!... Who shut the trans/pedophiles at Disney down, as an alternative to Trump!
The Best ticket (and most unlikely) for 2024, would be Trump/DeSantis.

Apply the same "Rule" to all of the Democrats that walked out and protested in front of congress, encouraged the riots that day, at Trumps inauguration, his swearing in, and his SOTU's.
Block /Ban/Remove every Dem that supported BLM/Antifa in any way whatever....including donating and facilitating defense teams for the arrested rioters. AOC in particular for her Book/Film "Burn Down the House"

“… shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof…”
Doesn’t this apply to Commie-la? She gave aid and comfort to the Antifa/BLM insurrectionists who were burning down federal courthouses by setting up and contributing to groups who raised money to bail them out.

But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.' If we follow this, the Eric Swalwell (D-Ca) should not be in Congress because of his relationship (giving aid & comfort) to his Chinese spy girlfriend. Nancy Pelosi (D-Ca) should not be in Congress because of her giving aid to her former Chinese spy chauffer. The list could go on and on.

What insurrection?? It was a "mostly peaceful protest," ala the St. George Floyd protests!! At least in the case of the J6 protests, nothing was burned to the ground!
