“we can channel that energy into essential electoral reforms in every state”

What would be the point of that?

We voted on Nov 3 assuming our votes would count, not that criminals would nullify that vote.

He’s nuts. There is no “Constitution” left if it’s a joke document that exists to validate a phony result.

I think that is what it comes down to.. These conservatives don’t want to overturn the electors the states have certified.

They see Congress having a very narrow role...

The quibble is with the states!

Rand Paul has been in the DC Beltway too long.

We’re not expected to be mindless robots following the exact letter of the law regardless of any circumstance. We’re supposed to reasonably abide by the Constitution but if there is clear fraud and theft, then we deal with it.

Validating a fraudulent election and a fraudulent President isn’t virtuous or “legal”. It is ratifying malfeasance at the highest levels and destroying the freedoms for which the Constitution stands.

All this caused by the SCOTUS who dodged very clear violations of the Constitution on a fake “standing” dodge.

John Roberts is garbage.

I hope as the nation’s anger cools, we can channel that energy into essential electoral reforms in every state.

How? Hold an election and vote on them?

Mitch’s bitch. Simple as that. Notice he didn’t speak against Mumbai Mike Lee’s Indians replacing American worker bill on December 2nd. Such priorities, tsk-tsk. Nice Christmas present there, Rand. We will all remember in spades.

I fear the chaos of establishing a precedent that Congress can overturn elections.

****I fear not!

“This would doom the electoral college forever.”

Ah, what we have now is a paradox.

Because the electoral college IS now doomed forever due to this STOLEN election being allowed to stand.

"The question is: Should Congress override the certified results from the states and nullify the states’ right to conduct elections? The vote today is not a protest; the vote today is literally to overturn the election!"

Wrong, Rand, you f*cking prick - the vote should have been to right the wrong of a stolen election.

I’ve got a better idea:

Constitution ONLY 2021-

If it’s not in there; it’s null and void and no American is bound to abide by it.

Deep State wants a Tango?
Let’s make it SPICY!

You do not “overturn” Fraud, you punish those who committed it.

Over 18 months ago! But he’s covering up for the Biden Family Foreign Cash Machine. He says his job is to uphold the law, until it comes to DC Insiders where they all bathe in the money.

His Lectures are only Lies. He’s back where he wants to be, in the minority hearing himself talk.

America is admired around the world for our free elections. We must, we absolutely must, fix this mess and restore confidence and integrity to our elections.

He's basically saying 'yea, there was rampant fraud but we must endorse it and then try to somehow fix it, or at least get you to think we did'

Very insprational.

With that style of thinking United States of America would never get created. When the elites from England ruled the American colony, no amount of peaceful protests would have given to the greatest democratic republic of USA.

The DC elites, all of them have become too tyrannical and the last straw was to create a fraudulent win for Biden and the elites in DC have no problem going along. If someone thinks peaceful protests will change anything, they are delusional.

The largest democracy in the world of India was also formed by patriots sacrificing their lives to drive the British rulers out of their crown jewel colony of India. There were assassinations and firing squads faced by the patriots.

Rand Paul, Show me one dictatorship dislodged by peaceful protests in last thousand years.
