Is this the case where Colorado has 10 minutes to explain why their move was constitutional?

Isn’t it refreshing to know that three votes are already decided

Roberts “ Insurrection “. frick this clown world. Constructed by Democrats for Democrats. All who disagree can kick rocks. No longer citizens, but subjects. No longer a Constitutional Republic but a bureaucratic behemoth.

This is a watershed moment.

If states can choose who they allow to run for federal office, this could get wildly out of hand.

If it is upheld, Texas should prevent Biden from running for president within the state.

If states want the ability to determine who can run for state office, so be it.

They can choose “how” elections should be run within their states, but the concept of them choosing “who” can run for federal office is out of the question.

4 ladies on the court and 2 lady men. Ominous. No way something as insignificant as the US Constitution can compete with all those feelings.

I'm baffled that the outcome of an entire Presidential election hinges on a fricking lawsuit by a single woman in Colorado with TDS and is based on a criminal charge that never took place.

Is this the threat to democracy we've been hearing about?

I'm not a lawyer and I'm sure this has been said, but isn't this as simple as how can you penalize somebody who hasn't been found guilty? Wouldn't this clearly violate innocent until proven guilty? This seems like a judge giving a defendant 20 years at the arraignment
