quote:

Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson have a (joint?) opinion concurring in the judgment. They too agree that Colorado cannot keep Trump off the ballot. But then, they say, five justices go further and "decide novel constitutional questions to insulate this Court and [Trump] from further controversy," by announcing "that a disqualification for insurrection can occur only when Congress enacts a particular kind of legislation pursuant to Section 5 of the Fourteenth Amendment. In doing so, the majority shuts the door on other potential means of enforcement."

A complete embarrassment of the Co. Supreme court. A states top court defeated 9-0 in a quick easy decision.

Now this is interesting. Didn't think they would go this far. Glad they did, but it is certainly something to unpack
