Election Interference at its Finest...?



Are you, or someone you know, one of those who agrees that Donald Trump is ineligible to run for President because he committed insurrection, according to the 14th Amendment? If so, I likely can't change your/their mind(s). But here are a few facts to think about or present to others.

1) No one involved in the January 6th disturbance has been charged or convicted of insurrection. That includes Donald Trump. U.S. Attorneys have charged about 1000 people with various crimes, from trespassing to assault, but no one has been charged with insurrection. The closest thing to insurrection was a Proud Boy who was convicted of sedition. But sedition is not mentioned in the 14th Amendment. And that man isn't running for office.

2) Insurrection against the United States is a federal crime and does not fall unde the jurisdiction of state courts. Secretaries of State, whether federal or state level, have no authority whatsoever to decide guilt or innocence in a legal matter. Have you noticed both Colorado and Maine have put their rulings on hold pending a challenge in a higher court? In their rulings Colorado referred to an appeal to the SCOTUS and the Secretary of State in Maine referred to "an appeal to a superior court." They know their decisions are faulty, with no basis in law.

3) Section One of the 14th Amendment says "No state shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."

Officials in both Colorado and Maine have ruled to deprive Donald Trump of his liberty to run for President of the United States without due process. Both have declared him guilty of a federal crime, of which he has never been charged, without due process of law and without jurisdiction. As such, the Colorado Supreme Court Justices who voted to remove Trump from the state primary ballot, as well as the Maine Secretary of State, should be individually charged with intentionally conspiring to deprive Donald Trump of his liberties in blatant violation of the 14th Amendment. The Amendment they used to remove him from the ballot should be used against them in a real court.

Both Colorado and Maine have stated that voters cannot write in Trump's name for President because Trump has been found by them to have committed insurrection. Both Colorado and Maine are depriving Trump voters of their right to vote for the candidate of their choice without the legal authority to do so. I know Trump's attorneys are filing appeals in both cases but I hope Trump voters in both states sue those states for said deprivation of rights again, under the 14th Amendment. 

I realize as of yesterday the Colorado Secretary of State said Trump would remain on the ballot. But as I said yesterday, I believe that to be a ploy... a calculated gamble, intended to avoid a Supreme Court ruling on the matter so they can remove Trump from the ballot on a date closer to the primary so he has no time to appeal before the election. As I also said... Democrats are treacherous... but not stupid. Insidious.

As the caption under the picture says... "The rules have changed."
