Trump needs to be investigated to determine whether he's too nutsy koo koo to serve as president.
We need an amnesty bill.
14th Amendment Section 3
No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, 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. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Esstential reading right now. I've seen there's an updated graphic novel version too, might be worth checking out. Tin Snyder also has a Substack.
We need Biden and the senate to step up.
Trump needs to be investigated to determine whether he's too nutsy koo koo to serve as president.
We need an amnesty bill.

I'm flummoxed that no one in Congress has the political will to enforce the 14th Amendment. I mean, what gives????
Mr Snyder is also on Bluesky and has shared his substack there. Mr Gary Kasperov is also a great source of information.
I read that when it was first published and kept telling everyone I know to read it!
Wow thanks for this 💙💙💙
I’m reading it currently too, the graphic version.
