Andy Kim and Adam Schiff are heroic public servants who deserve praise for defending our Democracy. Lauren McFerrin and Joshua Didleberg will protect workers from DOGE fascism. Just like Trump's first term, government workers, regulators, and the judiciary!

Wait a sec... Wouldn't it require a 2/3 majority to *remove* the disability, i.e. allow him to take office, so that if they *fail* to get a 2/3 majority *allowing* him to take office, then... he's barred?

Still waiting for Meidas to thoroughly discuss Section 3 of the 14th Amendment to our U.S. Constitution, which restricts an insurrectionist from taking office unless 2/3 of Congress votes to remove the restriction. To say this is urgent is an enormous understatement.

So beautiful the words that our Vice President spoke to the children. And, dammit, she would have been a very good President!

I agree ☝🏽. Kamala Harris is very likable and gracious when it comes to kids. Something 🤡 knows nothing about.

I knew something in my gut didn’t feel right about the election results. This sh*t was rigged from the get go.

There is still potentially an option for the Senate to try to block Trump. Although SCOTUS rejected the attempt of Colorado and two other states to block him, the decision leaves the congressional option available. It would require a 2/3 vote. In the Colorado case, facts show that Trump aided, abetted and gave comfort to insurrectionists.

I don't expect this to happen, but.......https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-719_19m2.pdfs

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.

Especially since he now has 34 felony convictions against him as a private person.

Yes, he does. He's also banned from over 30 countries. He'll have to request special permission to enter. Orange nitwit is outsmarted and outpaced by thinking individuals. And, everyone he's surrounding himself with has the same lack of character and integrity he has.

Trump is so stupid he doesn't believe his picks aren't "loyal." TS has already begun to hit TF. They'll run loops around his dumb a** and he'll have no true allies to come to his defense.

The dude is a first-class rogue goof. Everything he touches withers and dies. He's in a snakepit and his choices are snakes of the most vile and toxic variety. These next four years will be anything but a walk in the park for the convicted felon.

In fewer words and detail than you, I have been saying this Daniel and I would die on that hill brother. Colorado and the other states had it correct.

😢 Seriously, how did we elect Trump again? We could have had a wonderful caring president? Watching this I'm once again heartbroken 💔. We really messed this up.

Not we. 77 million imbeciles voted for the convicted rapist and felon.

And roughly 90 million didn't even vote. Our actual majority clearly doesn't care about these issues.

Or don’t believe whomever is in the WH can make any difference in their lives.

We will see. TFG has been left with a roaring economy ( which he will take credit for. )

However, they will overreach. They always do. When they ban gays and trans from the military, roll back gay marriage and ban the abortion pill, maybe just maybe, that 90 Million will wake the hell up.

No one cares until the leopard eats their own face.

I wish I could speak to all those non voters and those who left the top of the ticket blank and those who chose third party... we told them what the assignment was and they just said MEH. 🫤 I'll sit it out or phone it in. This is their fault. I will never forgive them.

Andy Kim was my Congressman for 8 years. Great dad, representative and Lego master. Put together with Cory Booker, NJ's Senate delegation is in excellent hands.

I wonder if Trump will dare to swear to protect the Constitution? How could he when he's already spoken against it and directed an insurrection.

He will lie and make a mockery of everything we hold dear. I don't have words strong enough to describe the destruction he and his cronies will try to wreak upon us.
