Today, the Supreme Court gave a unanimous 9-0 rejection of Colorado’s state-level attempt to keep President trump off the ballot via Section 3 of the 14th amendment. Congress, not the States, is “responsible for enforcing Section 3 against federal officeholders and candidates.”
Techno Fog – According to the Supreme Court, States may only disqualify officeholders or candidates from state office. This power doesn’t extend to federal elections or officers: “Nothing in the Constitution delegates to the States any power to enforce Section 3 against federal officeholders and candidates.”
President Trump will deliver his remarks at 12 p.m.

Have all of the Colorado Supreme Court “justices” been arrested yet? Where are the U.S. Marshals?
Jena Griswold should be in U.S. Marshal’s custody by now on her way to the D.C. Gulag.
Jena Griswold: the last time I saw a mouth like that it had a hook in it. And she’s about as dumb as a fish too.
Letitia James in white-face. 😂
it would seem that all Soros groupies possess an IQ = or< room temp
Particularly Griswold. She’s busy whining publicly about states being stripped of authority to enforce Section 3.
Watch her turn around in January 2025 and screech for PDJT’s electors to be blocked. 😆
Jena dear, the states NEVER HAD the authority to enforce 14A Section 3!
It was a Fedsurrection and you know it!
She can’t even double check her grammar before sending. She uses “insurrections” rather than the proper “insurrectionists”. You can’t put “violent uprisings against an authority or government” on the ballot anyway.
So true.
And that’s *collectively*
That is quite an insult to fish.
She probably is an AWFL —affluent white female liberal.
She’s got those crazed Leftist eyes that most rabid Democrat women with authority have!
She’s got the constricted pupils that most narcotics users have too.
Yeah, she must’ve been something before electricity. (Since we’re channeling Caddyshack)
Do you get a free bowl of soup with that hat? Oh, but it looks great on you!
How does somebody who talks like she does get to be SOS? She comes across like a child who’s mind is jumping all over the place with the face trying to catch up.
Sounds like they were trying to over-turn an election to me.
And voter suppression. (And “threat to democracy,” whatever that is🤣).

Meltdown After 9-0 Supreme Court Ruling Trump Can Be on the Ballot, with Stu Burguiere & Dave Marcus
“Conan, what is best in life?”
“To crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and to hear the lamentation of their women!”
Please no more hissy fits from their wimmin.
That’s a BIG word for Conan
If it were possible for States – even “traffic-court judges” in States – to disqualify anyone they didn’t like, then it would not take long at all for “Banana normal” to hold sway: “there is one ‘approved’ name on the ballot.” Vote for One.
Linking back to the latest post about Lent, this is still true: “But Jesus would not trust himself to them because he knew them all, and did not need anyone to testify about human nature. He himself understood it well.” And, so do we.
Such is the power of the deep state employee unions. One for all and all for one.
I know, a traffic judge
And the legacy media never reported it
Traffic!!!
Dave Marcus’s understanding of January 6th is pathetic. Yes, Dave, the January 6th event is just like the Russian scam perpetrated on President Trump and those that support him and it was by the same cabal of idealogues too.
Washington DC Primary in put into perspective:
Haley got 1274 votes
President Trump got 676 votes.
That’s her huge win! It’s like a high school class president election.
President Trump didn’t spend any time or money there because it’s the swamp.
Haley spent a bunch of time and money there.
President Trump didn’t spend any time or money there because it’s the swamp.
Haley spent a bunch of time and money there.,,because she’s not very smart.
She didn’t spend the money.
Her Blob donors did.
D.C. Where even the Republicans vote Democrat.
Why is there a primary in DC?
DC is not located in any state, so absent a separate primary DC residents would be denied the vote.
After chasing down and reading the actual 20-page decision, I am grateful that the majority (in this unanimous decision) recognized what the minority didn’t want to: that sometimes a Court must “go beyond what is presented” in order to properly settle the matter “once and for good.” They knew full well that they were dealing with “Lawfare.”
They also knew it they didn’t clearly shut the door on challenges like these, there would be more cases coming back to them.
They dislike having to review the same issues over and over, although they can always: 1) deny cert; or 2) summarily reverse in light of ___v. ___ case (no opinion then, just an order).
Then why did SCOTUS have to go the extra mile to beg Congress to act?
They weren’t begging Congress to act. They were giving notice to anyone who would challenge Trump’s eligibility post-election on the insurrection clause that they would not have a case absent a federal statute, so don’t bother us with any post-election challenges to a Trump victory.
SCOTUS knows Congress would not pass such a law, especially before this election.
I just heard that Biden gave an interview in which he said that Trump is a loser and losers never accept defeat and that he expects Trump to challenge the election in 2024 when he beat him “no matter what.”
That is a big tell that Biden expects to win again and we know how that will be achieved, by cheating.
They are preparing Americans to accept another Biden victory.
It could be what Jill’s told Joe is going to happen. Then again, it could be the ramblings of a dementia patient.
Could be?
Lol
Now ask Joe when that election takes place.
TLHoward: Joe must have overheard that he gets to play president again.
As always, the Babylon Bee nails it. Enjoy!

Shenna Bellows is the unelected, non-lawyer Maine Secretary of State who unilaterally took Trump off the ballot.
She must face a federal criminal probe by the Trump 47 DOJ for violating civil rights.
Democrats must face severe consequences for lawfare and election interference.

President Trump video played to the song Dream On. Very uplifting. Boy, have they put him through so much.
It’s a 3:45 minutes look back and look ahead at our favorite President played to great music. It was posted a few months ago by Dan Scavino.

It is extremely difficult to get the Supreme Court to rule 9-0 on anything, especially in a highly contentious and highly political case. Yet radical Democrats managed to get even liberal justices to vote against them.
Today’s ruling was only the first regarding the lawfare being used against President Trump, and we can expect to see more rulings in the coming months. Democrats overplayed their hand and are starting to see all their plans backfiring.
Video linked….
SCOTUS knows the entire institution is in jeopardy with all these Democrat dirty tricks. They know they must present a united front and send Democrats to the naughty corner. Bravi.
A little trivia about Jena Griswold…….
“On May 24, Jena Griswold, 29, and Mohamed Enab, 33, wed in a traditional Jewish ceremony at the Rocky Mountain Park Inn in Estes Park, Colo.
During the Egyptian-themed reception, Jena surprised Mohamed with belly dancers and a Spider-Man birthday cake while their guests danced with brightly colored scarves tied around their waists.”
How do you become an AG at 29?
I guess she’s SoS .. SAME ?????
SoS & PoS
Soros money behind her. And those 6 Colorado billionaires who turned the state blue.
That appears to be from her wedding announcement. She was married at 29. Became SoS a few years later.
Nothing says Jewish like the name “Mohamed”.
Here’s his Linkedin profile
For over six years, I have been a teacher at various schools, focusing on elementary education and working with children from diverse backgrounds and needs. I have a master’s degree in elementary education from Relay Graduate School of Education and Arizona State University, and I am currently a teacher at Thompson School District, one of the largest and most diverse districts in Colorado.
As a teacher, I am passionate about fighting for educational equity and providing opportunities and resources for students and families in disenfranchised communities. I have developed new business skills through my previous roles as a CEO, owner, and general manager of different companies in Egypt, where I also won a gold medal in water polo with the national team. I am fluent in English, Arabic, and Spanish, and I have multiple skills in key account management, sales, and marketing.
There is more than one religion in Egypt.
Charlie: Traditional Jewish ceremony, with a muslim groom and an Egyptian-themed reception. Alrighty then.
Something you aren’t hearing from any of the so-called expert legal pundits today. The three liberal justices – Sonia Sotomayor, Elena Kagan and Ketanji Brown Jackson – agreed with the majority’s judgment but offered a separate concurring opinion, writing, “Although we agree that Colorado cannot enforce Section 3, we protest the majority’s effort to use this case to define the limits of federal enforcement of that provision, that federal legislation is the exclusive vehicle through which Section 3 can be enforced.”
Even Amy Coney Barrett protested that in her own concurring opinion.
Here’s the dirty little secret for their protests, especially the 3 liberal women. They want to be able to bring new lawsuits in federal court that will keep President Trump off of the general election ballot. That is the reason for their objection that federal legislation is the exclusive vehicle through which Section 3 can be enforced.
And any bill that ever passed this Congress would be immediately ruled unconstitutional, as it would be directed at one person, President Trump, and would be a Bill of Attainder, prohibited by the Constitution. Furthermore, it would be an ex-post facto law, retroactively changing the legal consequences, or status, of actions that were committed before the enactment of the law, and those laws are also unconstitutional.
Barrett’s been a disappointment, and I didn’t have high hopes given her lockdown rulings. Her default view is to greenlight anything the government does, basically an authoritarian, which fits right in with the uniparty.
She upsets me the most
What she got six kids? Maybe she runs her home as a structured strict authoritarian mother, and it follows her to work. I did not like her from the first moment I listened to her during the nomination process, but everyone made her out to be Justice Scalia’s most valued law clerk. Sometimes I think closet liberal lawyers take clerkships with conservative judges so they can learn to beat other lawyers at the lawyer game before the other lawyer can raise an argument.
I know that is some outside thinking, but lawyers are cunning and being cunning can be used for bad as much as it can for good.
Yeah, well…too bad.
Barrett was following a basic principle of appellate jurisprudence, which is to decide only the particular question presented.
It’s not a bad principle because the Constitution provides the court should only hear cases and controversies. Con Law I usually covers this clause – no advisory or hypothetical rulings. Stick to the actual facts at hand.
In this case, I think the five more experienced justices wanted to shut the door on any further challenges, including post-election, under the insurrection clause. They do not want any post-election cases.
Barrett’s concurrence is only two paragraphs long. The three lefties went on for quite a few pages, and yes, I do think they were annoyed that the Court had shut out any further insurrection challenges to Trump’s candidacy or election.
They wanted to shut the door on any further challenges pre-election in attempting FEDERAL lawsuits to keep Trump off the general election ballot. Had they not ruled as they did, you would have had immediate lawsuits in favorable Dem FEDERAL district courts to do what Colorado just tried.
That’s why the Dems are now going to try legislation to accomplish what they couldn’t get the courts to do. But as I said above, even if some RINOs went along with the Dems and passed such legislation, it would never see the light of day in court.
I would call her decision “narrow minded” as opposed to the thoughtful five. Some people just can go “by the letter”.
As you correctly observe, this is “anticipatory priming-the-pump.” Because, as they very well know, the actual text of the Amendment includes only: “Section 5.” If this were not “the exclusive vehicle,” the text of that section must have “so stated.” But, very purposely, it did not.
They very-curiously whined that the Court had not “limited itself to the case before it.” And they very clearly did so in order to suggest that “the case before it” consisted only of the submitted papers – not also “the irrefutable text of the Amendment that is in question.”
“Article 5” offers no “question” at all: “The Congress shall.”
It’s a shame to see Nimrata’s Monday ruined with a news drop like this, but she can still root for the courts to give Leticia her pound of flesh in New York! Because, you know, ‘democracy’ and all that…. =)
Oooo… 😛
GOP: Make America Great Again
Democrats: Bring back Jim Crow laws that apply to thee, but not to me, KKK night riders and vigilante street justice.
Them Democrats sure are brawlers.
I would have liked them to have held that the insurrection clause doesn’t apply to the president. Then there’d be no way to try to disqualify Trump based on that provision. 4 justices think federal courts should be able to disqualify the president, which is troubling.
Even better ruled that the American War for Independence, the Whiskey Rebellion, the Alamo, the Civil War, the Russian Revolution and the Easter Uprising in Dublin by the IRA are all examples of an INSURRECTION.
The protest on January 6th was not!

A rolling October 7th.
Trump is rolling along now. A military coup may be the only thing left that can derail him.
Therefore the democrats are thinking about a military coup.
One has to wonder how the “new” military could even pull that one off without breaking nails, snapping off high heels, and smudging mascara…
I like how Trump took one question from the media and it was Brian Glenn from RSBN then he walked off the stage and some dimwit woman “reporter” shouted out some question about abortion.he was already gone. I guess her job depended on asking this question. What an idiot.
Yes she wanted to drag him in the Alabama IVF law. I heard that also.
When your legal theory is SOO bad that even the progressives on the Court rule against you, then you know you’re in trouble.
adding this here too, President Trump is live answering questions on RSBN on this night before Super Tuesday:
It’s very good! Been repeated a couple times now…
Just read that Biden has until March 19 to drop out. Will be interesting.
Maybe he will choose Newsom then as VP and DNC will thrash Biden at the earliest opportunity.
After March 19, the delegates from many states are required to vote for the winner of their primary.
If Biden drops out, an open convention???
Popcorn futures. Invest now.
I’m thinking that an open convention is the only way out for the dim-o-crat party. They have so alienated the nation that they are now unable to face what the voters would choose. The only way out is to avoid the primary process altogether and install the candidate of their choice via the open convention. Lots of noise and confusion at the event will provide ample cover to mask the party operative’s true intentions.

A Mormon from Utah?
Keep in mind that when the Mormons settled in Utah in the 1840’s it was still part of Mexico hence the somewhat Pro-Open Borders of many Mormons. It wasn’t until several years later after the war with Mexico was settled that Utah became part of the United States. Then the Mormons staged an “insurrection” and fought several half-hearted battles with Federal Troops during the Civil War.
Speaker slams House Dems after report they’ll act after SCOTUS allows Trump to stay on CO ballot: ‘get a grip’
Excerpt:
According to a report published in Axios Monday, Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., a former member of the Jan. 6 select committee, said he is already crafting federal legislation that would force Trump of the ballot.
But a spokesperson for Speaker Johnson told Fox News Digital on Monday night that his Democrat colleagues should “get a grip.”
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/speaker-slams-house-dems-after-report-theyll-act-after-scotus-allows-trump-stay-co-ballot-get-a-grip?intcmp=tw_fnc
I think Johnson should send that bill to a committee for some extensive hearings.
They are not even hiding their next step…they intend to take back the House in November, via all of the redistricting that happened because SCOTUS refused to stop the counting of illegals in the last census. Add to that all of the RINOs that are “suddenly retiring” (just like they did in 2018 under the direction of Paul Ryan). So, when DJT wins in November, the “new” Democratic House (which will be sworn in BEFORE the new President takes office) will simply refuse to certify the votes because, according to Raskin and the clown Committee, Donald Trump is an “Insurrectionist”!
The Republicans better get their ducks in a row because this is coming and if they get caught flat footed, like they did in 2019 when Nancy and the Dems took the House, the same thing will happen again, only worse, IMHO!
A new Congress would take office on January 2, 2025, but the president would not be sworn in until January 20. If both houses were controlled by Dems, this could be a problem. The Dems might take the House, but could lose the Senate.
Exactly! And if the President’s transition team is not FULLY prepared for this scenario, then it will end up getting decided in the courts and it could take months, at least, before it is resolved, with no guarantees how SCOTUS would rule…
SCOTUS does not want to decide post-election cases. It probably recognizes there are election irregularities, but in the broader view, it does not want to get involved in the electoral process in a way that would change the outcome.
In Bush v. Gore, it took the easy way out with a decision that left the apparent winner, Bush, the winner. In Texas v. Pennsylvania, it left Biden as the winner, again the easy way out.
It will take the easy way out with 2024. That’s not reassuring, but if Trump wins, it’s not going to get involved. If courts don’t have to decide issues, they usually don’t.
That’s not to say the easy way out is always wrong. The ruling today was actually pretty easy, obvious and correct, and no doubt that’s why spineless Roberts went along.
In all reality, We the People can’t, and shouldn’t, rely on the Supreme Court, Congress or a President to save us.
We NEED to do everything in our power to get involved in the voting process the best we can: election supervisor’s, poll watchers, running for local GOP positions, running for Secretary of State, anything and everything to penetrate the swamps strangle hold on our election process!
More Tesla’s malfunctioning.
This is an end run around the SC ruling.
Ratskin proclaimed that the House already declared Trump an insurrectionist during the impeachment, so all they have to do is pass the procedural steps, which only require a majority vote. Likely RINO’s will fall for it.
The Maine Secretary of State who was going to keep Trump off the ballot just announced that she had reversed her decision in light of today’s SCOTUS ruling.
Tired of winning yet?
Never!
“@laurenboebert
and the Colorado GOP are leading an effort to RECALL Sec. of State Jena Griswold following the 9-0 SCOTUS ruling against her.”….
I just talked to my sister. She didn’t realize VA votes tomorrow. As I posted here two days ago, there had been almost no publicity here. She did text me back She just got a call from Trump campaign. VA GOP is an arm of the Establishment. Useless.
The opinions are interesting because of what they imply about Jack Smith’s Lawfare attacks on Trump.
Three of the justices are very worried that the majority is not going to allow the “insurrection” hoax to get past them. Their choice of words mirrors the DC judges’ and their insistence that 1/6 was “an insurrection”. All of their hopes for stopping Trump hinge on this one, very basic, lie.
OTOH, five justices go beyond whether a state can block Trump from the ballot to narrow what can be called an insurrection…making Congress pass legislation to do so. Importantly, CONSTITUTIONALLY, Congress owns the remedy for prosecuting a President. It’s called impeachment, and PDJT was acquitted. The Constitution does not give anyone other than Congress this power.
Just like removing Trump from the ballot, the 1/6 case is legally absurd. But immunity will be 5-4 or 6-3.
BTW, the decision on what presidential records would be delivered to Trump was made BEFORE he left office, making that decision an official Presidential act as well. That determination also cannot be disputed after the fact.
https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/23pdf/23-719_19m2.pdf
Exactly! All of the cases against President Trump are blatantly illegal on their face.
A prosecutor whether federal or local along with a grand jury cannot usurp, second guess or countermand the power granted to the President of the United States by the Constitution and by the American people who voted him into office!
they knew they were illegal,they are just trying to drain his bank account paying lawyers.pdjt should be able to sue those states and secs of state to recoup his attorney fees.that would really piss em off.
Justice will be served when all these criminals are themselves arrested and prosecuted for sedition and abuse of power. It’s long past time they were bankrupted for their activities.
We also need to target the legal profession organizations that have threatened lawyers with loss of clients/income if they represent Pres. Trump. A lot of Lawfare involves terrorizing lawyers who might want to side with Pres. Trump. We need to have an investigation into who is doing that, and prosecute them as well.
Trump-appointed Justice Amy Coney Barrett says 9-0 ruling keeping ex-president on the ballot is a ‘message’ to America and urges Supreme Court to ‘turn the national temperature down – not up’
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13155649/my-coney-barrett-trump-ballot-message-supreme-court.html
I did not know it was the job of the Supreme Court to regulate the “national temperature”.
I saw that reading her 1-page opinion, too. That’s why I think the “immunity” case will break 5-4 for Trump, but maybe 6-3 if she has a change of heart.
A lot of “conservatives” live under the bizarre belief that giving the Left whatever it wants to shut them up constitutes “turning the temperature down”. Most of the fascistic COVID measures and the 2020 BLM terrorism rested on this principle, “Give us what we demand and we’ll stop screaming at you, burning down your businesses, having you fired, and calling you names.”
The other 3 will side with the DC Circuit which laughably claims that the “public interest” outweighs what the Constitution actually says.

The Judges are still getting high fives from the locals. Every deep blue state with super majorities promote far left activists who hate what the Constitution stands for. Watch the Senate Judicial hearings during the reign of O’Biden. This is what the majority in states like Oregon, NY, California, Washington, Connecticut, Colorado want. Sad bunch.

Late as usual to the discussion. President Trump! I absolutely loved his words which were in effect “It’s not all about ME!”
Griswold=Cousin Eddie’s dumber sister
They’re going to give Repubs this small victory, then they’re going to rule that Trump CAN be prosecuted for actions taken while in office. Yet Biden will NEVER be prosecuted for ruining this country, endangering the citizens, and flinging open the border.
Trump was on the ballot in every state in 2020 and Dems were able to pull off the cheat, no doubt this is what Brown, Soto Mayor, Kagan and Roberts were thinking with this ballot issue.
yes, Griswold is dumb as a pile of rocks….but what about the many Colorado voters who put her in office.
If the 14th Amendment is so powerful, can someone explain to me why former Confederate soldiers were allowed to serve in Congress by the dozens and why one Confederate soldier became Chief Justice of the Supreme Court???
