Appellate courts aren't likely to overturn that.

 

But an appellate court could overturn the part about the presidential office not being an office of the United States, right?

In which case it would go to the Supreme Court and be overruled by four corrupt justices and two additional conservative justices.

So Ben doesn't need to worry about that possibility.

It's before the State Supreme Court. I'm curious as to how they are going to rule the President isn't an officer of the United States. Does that mean SCOTUS will have to revoke POTUS' authority also? It's a CF. Hot potato. That's why she punted it IMO. Doesn't take Harvard law to figure this out:

18 USC §2383. 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.

Check back in April when Ben starts arguing Trump got a bum steer on this one. To me this confirms the intent of Section 3 of the 14th amendment. Any one who is convicted of this gotta sit out.

This is 2nd district court judge Sarah Wallace of Colorado.  Thanks to her, Trump will be on the ballot in Colorado. 

 

It's being appealed. Her finding will most likely stand. They may remand back to her. The plaintiffs may appeal up if not.

That will be quite a tale if six voters in Colorado can keep Trump off of ballots nationally in the pending election. 

Does that set up Mike Johnson as a possible candidate (if Trump is kept off of ballots nationwide)?

The GOP field---DeSantis, Haley and Ramaswamy (two Indian-Americans, btw)---is not overwhelming.

But then, Biden looks like a thin sack of potatoes.   

RFK2 has a shot, given the anemic gruel being offered by the two major parties? 

 

[Sandy Larsen]

Biden will win if RFK doesn't win any states. Unless he dies first.

Irrelevant to the point Leslie. You’re blowing a blizzard of snow.

The issue is should hypothetical possible embarrassment to allies today justify refusal to release certain records related to the JFK assassination from sixty years ago. And the answer must be no. 

Let the truth come out. Let there be sunlight. If uncomfortable, let there be a national soul-searching and reckoning. But enough of the apologia for continued holding of secrets surrounding that assassination by decision of gatekeepers themselves not above suspicion of institutional interests in the matter.

Amen to that.

Ben, I'm begging you to read what you post before you submit. It's ridiculous.
