The way the Amendment is written, it is not time relevant. It was written to exclude all Confederates, but is left open ended. There is no reference to the Civil War, but only to "Insurrections".

Thus the argument being made is that the Jan 6 was in fact an "insurrection"

Democrats chose that word, knowing that they may be able to use it in the context of the 14A. This judge bought their argument.
