The Second SCOTUS ruled in Marbury v Madison that the Constitution is to be interpreted in the way the writers understood it, and if it was ambiguous, the the most restrictive of government power is to be used since the intent of the framers of the Constitution was to limit government power.

These Are the Lawyers Who Told Mike Pence That, Despite Trump’s Pressure Campaign, VP Had No Power to Overturn Election Results

I hate these a$$holes. They put on this farce, and it wasn’t even an “insurrection”. Nobody tried to overthrow the government. At most it was disorderly conduct and or trespassing. I loathe the swamp scum.

The assertion that Trump engaged in an insurrection is ludicrous on it’s face. The only real interest is trying to figure out Luttig’s motive. With Conway & Christie it is clear that they are disappointed office seekers, but Luttig is a mystery to me.

We’ve literally got a kid sniffing Chinese agent in the WH and they’re ok with it

Anything else they have to say is disqualified as moronic bs

Not this crap again. This is the same judge who authored the memo for the Bush administration saying torture is OK. He’s a Neocon nut.

Thank you for your intelligent and pithy insight. You both emulate and are a credit to your people.

The problem is he reads the text so literally. Everyone knows the law wasn’t meant for this situation.

NONE of the people already detained and put on trial [for January 6, 2021] was ever CHARGED with insurrection.

Wow. A little known fact that needs to be shouted from the rooftops all across America.

Wow, there it is: a story telling how Luttig was one of three key advisors to Pence before he pulled his shameful, unAmerican act of stopping all discussion of election results as Vice President before Congress.

Pence was basically an accomplice to Nanci Pelosi in their conspiracy against the Constitution and We the People.

“...“incited, and therefore engaged in, an armed insurrection”


Armed? Armed with what? How many weapons were seized from the people who walked into the Capitol?

That amendment and that section of that amendment does not and never did apply to ex Presidents. He should learn to read.
