Thank you for referencing that article VinL. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Given that the country has a lawless president that patriots want to remove from the Oval Office, also activist justices that patriots likewise want to remove from the Supreme Court, the problem with Congress is not necessarily the House leaders imo.

More specifically, regardless that the Founding States gave Congress the constitutional authority to remove bad-apple presidents and justices from office, the problem is that even after three election cycles, enough cycles to replace all members of the Senate, patriot voters who “own” the Senate through the 17th Amendment have failed to elect the 2/3 Senate majority that the Constitution requires for the Senate to remove corrupt, House-impeached government “leaders” from office.

I call this situation 17th Amendment gridlock.

The ill-conceived 17th Amendment needs to disappear, and corrupt senators who protect lawless presidents and activist justices along with it.

Been saying that for years. Giving the States back the power to select its own Senators would mean that local elections and Governor races would become huge in importance.
