As Americans Suffer COVID And Blackouts, House Dems Draft Bill To Ban ‘Twice Impeached Presidents’ From Burial At Arlington Cemetery
The National Pulse ^ | 02/18/2021 | Natalie Winters

The “No Glory For Hate Act” was written on January 25th and has been “referred to the Committee on Oversight and Reform in addition to the Committees on Transportation and Infrastructure, Natural Resources, Armed Services, and Veterans’ Affairs.” Among its supporters are Rep. Veronica Escobar, Rep. Grace Napolitano, Rep. Ruben Gallego, and Rep. Judy Chu.

The bill would require the Secretary of Defense to “not approve a determination of eligibility for interment or inurnment in Arlington National Cemetery made by the Secretary of the Army that permits the interment or inurnment in Arlington National Cemetery of any former President that has been twice impeached by the House of Representatives on or before the date of enactment of this Act.”

Therefore, the bill applies exclusively to Donald Trump, as he is the only U.S. president that has been impeached – and acquitted – twice.

What’s more, the act stipulates that “no Federal funds” shall “create or display any symbol, monument, or statue commemorating any former President that has been twice impeached.” Highways, parks, subways, Federal buildings, military installations, and streets are also included in the ban.

To be a Rat you really have to be mentally ill. That’s the Majority in the Capitol Building. Those people are really either sick or just plain evil.

Could give them a pass if they were sick,but Evil is a different story.

I’m sure we can come up with a couple of charges each for Obama and Biden, too. And pass laws preventing honors for corrupt secretaries of state.

To say nothing if they ever figure out who used to own the place before it became a national cemetery!

Yes. The first time I read C.S. Lewis's That Hideous Strength, I thought it was grotesquely overblown, that people couldn't be so openly and consciously evil. In the last few years, I've come to think Lewis was a prophet, except that maybe his characters weren't grotesque and blatant enough.

Just think - if President Trump can manage to get impeached once more he won’t have to worry about this silly, vindictive idea. Assuming it becomes a law.

Yeah I have got to read that again to bet an idea of what to expect going forward. Thanks for reminding me, and yep, you woj,would, think people couldn’t be that evil, but sadly there are examples all over the world of it.

Their irrational hatred doesn’t end! They hate this country and the only president who proved that he loves it.

There are two presidents buried at Arlington - Taft and Kennedy. I am not aware that Trump has expressed any desire to be buried there so I imagine this is much ado about nothing.

How silly, since Trump was twice acquitted. That changes his status to “never impeached”.

This is a BILL OF ATTAINDER. Unconstitutional. But what does that matter? They tried a President that out of office. This country is NO LONGER following the Constitution anyway.

Question... how many presidents have been buried in Arlington ?

Two. Taft and JFK.

Why would one expect Trump to be buried there?

Oh yeah, I think of that book often these days. Truly scary, what’s happening in our country. Engineered riots, just like in the book. Deep connections with devil worship, just like in the book.

Impeachment is the indictment, the accusation. The trials were in the Senate where he was found not guilty.
