Sotomayor, Kagan, Jackson:

Today, the majority goes beyond the necessities of this case to limit how Section 3 can bar an oathbreaking insurrectionist from becoming President. Although we agree that Colorado cannot enforce Section 3, we protest the majority’s effort to use this case to define the limits of federal enforcement of that provision. Because we would decide only the issue before us, we concur only in the judgment.

Let’s see if the Dems in Colorado and elsewhere try to defy the SCOTUS ruling. No one should be surprised if they do.

I guess this means that the traffic court judge in Chicago can’t keep Trump off the Illinois ballot.

The Dems are forced to let people vote.

But will they count them?

Also helps to put the kibosh on the other retards at the state level from attempting this stunt all the way up to Nov. Also I think sends a message to all appellate courts, “Don’t even think about it.”

Now lets execute the idiots that tried this in Maine, Colorado and Illinois. I want to see their body parts fed to the sharks.

Roberts got his 9-0 ruling on this case.

One wonders what he had to give up in order to get it?

Bump Stocks, maybe?
