There was literally no other decision the Court could have made and retained its legitimacy. I'm glad they made it unanimous to spare everyone an even bigger issue.
Remember when Twitter deleted President Trump's January 6th tweet only 30 seconds after he made it? I wonder why they did that? But too late, it was captured and saved :-) and thank God for Elon restoring all of it!
I predicted 7-3, glad to see 9-0, it is the correct ruling. Unfortunately the Dems will try another angle to attack and disqualify him, it is not over yet folks. They are in meltdown mode and will sadly implement more drastic measures. They lie and cheat for power, they are scared of President Trump!
They still own the DOJ. Cheating on election day will be vast, unrestricted and brazen. Nothing will be done about it and those who openly question the legitimacy of the vote count will be arrested. Wait for it. It’s their “insurance policy”.
Exactly. Q said no other elections can be held until voter fraud is fixed. Has it been fixed? No. So yeah of course the deep state will cheat no matter how obvious it is.
Who will tell the Deep State they can’t cheat? Will House Republicans write a strongly worded letter? Will Merrick Garland’s DOJ come to Trump’s defense? Will the SCOTUS……never mind.
According to Trump supporters he's already won. It'll be Trump's 3rd term because he's "secretly" serving as president now. It is over. No need to vote Trump already won.
Seems to me that the only victory was that states couldn’t remove a federal candidate, but they left open that congress could still do this. With how corrupt our legislative body is, wouldnt surprise me to see this angle taken next.
I think I get it now- apparently after the ruling yesterday, Democrats are tweaking legislation to take Trump out of politics once and for all by 1) Officially declaring January 6th an “insurrection,” then 2) Should Trump win and they regain House Control, they would declare him ineligible to take office in that period between Jan 1 when they officially take control and Inauguration Day.
I agree with your opinion, Mr. Smith. I saw that kind of language too as I read over the opinion this morning. I glad they ruled justly on this, but in a way it does almost feel like a set-up for down the road. A lot of what they said in their opinion seemed to be stressing how very important the FEDERAL government is….the MOST important part of government. We even fought a war over it to preserve it.
Not saying states have the “right” to do what Colorado and others did. But the glorification of Federalism and its unending growth where we expect them to police themselves is how we ended up with the evil behemoth of bureaucracy that is strangling our lives and freedoms.
The ones who want a global world order and their lackeys aren’t done yet.
Yet I still gladly take the win of this ruling. We will see what the future brings
“Now to Him who is able to do exceeding abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen”
Thanks for posting that so quickly: I do watch certain shows Mark Levin and others who keep track of the Constitutional impact of these lower court irregular/illegal rulings and I posted on X or somewhere.. Scotus "should rule" 9-0 on that. The idea that lower court judges can actually prevent ANY CANDIDATE from being on the PRESIDENTIAL Ballot is so preposterous SCOTUS should put this to rest FOREVER: Scotus got that right. Allowing the State Judiciary to interfere w/ a Federal election is not what was meant by the 14th. Thanks for explaining that so clearly. It is sort of complicated (not to me) but it would not only change future GOP elections it would have a deleterious impact on all future elections regardless of party by allowing partisan Judges at the state level to interfere with the Presidential elections. Thanks Techno.:)
The U.S.Supreme Court must always uphold the rule of law and the Constitution. No matter what political party. It's great that they decided unanimously and this will shake up the DS no doubt...
The opinion written by the Sotomayor, Kagan and Jackson was an exercise in TDS butt-hurtedness. Their angle is essentially, “Yes, this was unconstitutional but we don’t like having to concur because of (imagined) misogyny, racism and Orange Man bad.”
We got a good laugh from this line: "By resolving these and other questions, the majority attempts to insulate all alleged insurrectionists from future challenges to their holding federal office."
Who are these insurrectionists, and are they in the room with us right now? :)
They know that a second Trump Administration will be hampered like never before, they will then remove this 'threat to Democracy' via the impeachment option, placing a vice-president into office.
This is why it does matter who Trump picks, look for it to be a surprise.
General Flynn is my pick also! Those two faces together would make a great statement, every day. He is a brave and brilliant man who would be great next to Trump! I trust Trump, but hope for my favorite General as VP.
I would also suggest that those who attempted to remove a candidate and thus the choice of the American voter, remember who these operatives were. Regardless of party affinity, this was a criminal act against the voting public, and these operatives should be remembered when it’s time for their elections.
Yes, like that traffic court judge in Illinois last week, whose ego made her act illegitimately. And it had already been decided by the Illinois Supreme Court.
Thank goodness for small mercies and SCOTUS finally putting this issue to bed. However, I did have a bit of a reaction to their hesitancy in ‘nullifying the votes of millions’. We should therefore be thankful that this case was presented before the election, as it appears that, after an election, SCOTUS finds that nullifying the votes of millions as ‘moot’.
Great legal analysis as always. The left wing media and those on the left are going crazy now you have Dem congressman Raskin talking nonsense saying if Dems take control of congress and Trump wins they won’t certified him as president. Talk about gaalighting insurrection these people are master at it.
Count me unimpressed. SCOTUS needed to state definitively that in the absence of some sort of Congressional finding that an insurrection did in fact occur, nobody can be banned from anything whatsoever on the basis of the 14th amendment.
Instead, states can now prevent, say, JD Vance for serving as Senator because he has claimed that the 2020 election was stolen, and that claim amounts to "insurrection."
Well stated...Thank You for this astute observation. They should have taken this decision further. We are not nearly there yet, and not as close to a celebration as i thought.
It’s amazing to watch them all bellowing insurrection again . The screaming at the echo chamber X is unreal . Never mind the useless pundits on the squawk box . Unreal how pathetic these people are .
Praise God for each and every victory against these tyrants, however big or small!!
It's not a victory it's a distraction.

I'm agreeing with you btw.
7-3? Where would the extra vote come from.
Yes, maybe. But the Democrat Party is now the Boy who Cried "WOLFMAN'!
According to Trump supporters he's already won. It'll be Trump's 3rd term because he's "secretly" serving as president now. It is over. No need to vote Trump already won.

They already did- impeachment. The conviction was defeated, so Congress would have no authority to exclude Trump from the ballot.
That's what I thought too.

THAT’S their new “insurance policy.”

Do not tire of your work. We have miles to go.
Same for you my dear.

Satanists heads exploding in Colorado.
Congratulations President Trump and We The People.
LOVE THE SOUND OF THAT! CELEBRATORY EXPLOSIONS FOR TRUMP AND AMERICAN CITIZENS!
We'll see who's heads explode when Biden gets 100 million votes.

I hope you are right... the DS seems to do whatever it wants.

Exactly! They were very weaslel-y in their choice of words. Apparently there is no cure for Orange-Man-Bad syndrome.
Unbelieveable how well they wear their ignorance!
Still covering this distraction huh?
They know that a second Trump Administration will be hampered like never before, they will then remove this 'threat to Democracy' via the impeachment option, placing a vice-president into office.
This is why it does matter who Trump picks, look for it to be a surprise.
Trump knows that the VP this time must be able to take the reigns for America First. I am expecting it to be Gen. Flynn, but Trump knows best.
General Flynn is my pick also! Those two faces together would make a great statement, every day. He is a brave and brilliant man who would be great next to Trump! I trust Trump, but hope for my favorite General as VP.
Most people go for name recognition. I’m sure there are excellent statesmen out there, they just don’t advertise…for a reason.

Well its sad we even had this happen. Some Democrats have really gone insane. Thank God the SC ended this nonsense. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Brilliant split-the-baby jurisprudence, nice job Supremes!.

yes, it could have been so much better... miles to go still.
