Minnesota doesn't have toes anymore

Dionysus, God of sex and alcohol!

If the SCOTUS return a verdict that is contrary to Consitutional law, the State would ignore it. SCOTUS has a real problem on their hands with this case and could forever harm the judicial power if they don't follow the law. A good example is Minersville School District v. Gobitis (1940) when SCOTUS , in a 8-1 ruling, forced all students to recite the pledge of allegence. It said that "national cohesion" was "inferior to none in the hierarchy of legal values," and that national unity was "the basis of national security." Religious expression, in other words, took a back seat to patriotism.

In West Virginia State Board of Education v. Barnette (1943), Jehovah’s Witnesses were expelled from school after they refused to salute the flag. But this time, the justices ruled 6-3 for the family’s right to freely express their religious beliefs.

“That’s a pretty dramatic reversal,” says Schultz. “The court issued what was an incredibly unpopular opinion during a war—that you can’t require people to salute the flag. But it was also one of the most beautifully written opinions I’ve ever read.”

Writing for the majority, Justice Robert Jackson wrote, “If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion, or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein.”

Schultz wonders if the rapid about-face had something to do with the atrocities committed by Germany based on religious persecution. “Maybe that’s what shakes up the Court, the realization that we can’t be Nazi Germany.”

Border crossing is not attempting to overthrow the government. They are fleeing other nations.

That is more about retaliation, not law.

Eligibility clauses are self executing. Donald, did you aid or support a insurrection? Yes, then not eligible.

Impeachment fell on partisan lines. This did not.

If Wisconsin disqualifies Trump he will never have enough votes to win.

Sounds about right.

Trump violated the Consitution and disqualified himself. Biden hasn't done anything remotely close to disqualifying.

The 14th Amendment Section 3 is self executing as it is about eligibility. Same as the age restriction and having to be a born in the United States.

Trump attempted to overthrow the government and kull members of Congress. We should burn TFG strawman every January 6th to mark his humiliation.

His father was a KKK member, you that's likely.

NATO nukes are fully operational. China's nukes are operational. Russia's nukes are likely broken and sold for parts. Pakistan's nukes are largely broken. India's likely are operational. Israel's nukes are fully operational.

How many? Too many.

They moved TSMC production facilities to Phoenix, Arizona. It's slated to open in 2025.

China gaining Taiwan would end global trade. That is the reason no one will let them forcibly take it.

That is what 2028 will be about.

Texas isn't as red as it appears and is gerrymanderd as hell.

I see the opposite, this is a nation preventing a break up. The nation falls if Trump is elected and declares himself king and dictator, tears up the Consitution and dismantle Congress. That is what they have been saying they intend to do.

Disqualification of Trump would put the next highest Republican on the ballot.
