Rep. Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., defended federal involvement in elections, citing Alexander Hamilton while claiming election loss "cannot be left up to the states."
This week marked one year since the Jan. 6 Capitol riot that occurred on the day that Congress set to certify President Biden’s win in the 2020 election over former President Donald Trump. The controversy around the post-election days focused on Trump’s efforts to challenge election losses in key states, including Georgia where State Secretary Brad Raffensperger famously rebuffed the then-president’s effort to find more votes.

Unprintable.
The constitution says otherwise, jimmie.
They are headed toward leaving it up to a dictator. They are just too ignorant of history.
Clyburn was completely unable to make a valid arguement in favor of the bill. He was pissed off at being so bluntly questioned.
Democrats believe NOTHING can be left to the states.
They want total federal control of everything.
Good. Then purge the voter rolls, and require federal photo ID. Ban mail-in voting and ballot harvesting. Deny suffrage to dead people, felons, and non-citizens.
That work for you, James?
Yes, let’s centralize cheating.
I believe it was Ioseb Besarionis dze Jughashvili who once said that it doesn’t matter who votes, but who counts the votes.
Democrat/communists do not trust the people and never have. They know Americans don’t want what they are selling and the only way they can stay in power is by taking over the counting of votes.
The constitution says otherwise, jimmie.
Isn’t he the turd brain who said when Covid-19 started it was the Democrats chance to further their agenda?
They want total Democrat Party/Communist Party control
of everything and everbody. Just listen to how arrogant
and entitled they sound.
What he's really saying is it cannot be left up to the voters.
And speaking of amending the Constitution...
The ultimate remedy for unconstitutionally big, alleged election-stealing, Democratic Party-pirated federal and state governments, allegedly manufacturing crises to oppress everybody under their boots...
Consider that the states effectively have "veto power" over continued unpopular, unconstitutional actions of the feds.
More specifically, all the states can effectively “secede” from the unconstitutionally big federal government by doing the following.
Patriots need to primary federal and state elected officials who don't send voters email ASAP that clearly promises to do the following.
Federal and state lawmakers need to promise in their emails to introduce resolutions no later than 100 days after start of new legislative sessions that proposes an amendment to the Constitution to the states, the amendment limited to repealing the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments (16&17A), little or no discussion required imo.
In fact, I challenge the states to ram the repeal amendment for 16&17A through the ratification process faster than Nancy Pelosi irresponsibly rammed unconstitutional Obamacare through the House. /semi-sarc
Insights welcome.
low IQ like mad maxine
They’re just following the playbook used in South Africa!
Another in the long history of Clyburnisms...
Only thing worse than a dolt is a communist dolt...
The Congress has the authority to alter state rules for elections of Senators and Representatives (Article I section 4).
But Congress, the Executive Branch, and the Supreme Court have NO AUTHORITY WHATSOEVER over the methods State Legislatures use for the appointment of their Electors for President or Vice President.
Hey Clyburn... go PI$$ UP a ROPE!
