Johnson unveils new plan to avoid shutdown amid tension in GOP, scraps Trump-backed election measure

The people of the UK just elected a left wing government because the Conservative Party majority in the Commons created a clown show, and most people don’t want clowns running the State.

The people in America don’t want it either.

Thank you for posting Williams.

"The voting measure is great but there is zero possibility it can become Law with Biden in the White House."

Lawmakers, along with whoever is running the OBiden Administration, are wrongly ignoring that making it easier for illegal aliens to get away with voting to try to keep desperate, elite Democrats and RINOs in power actually requires the states to ratify an appropriate amendment to the Constitution to give illegals the power to vote imo. (Ain't going to happen.)

From related threads ...

Democratic and Republican Trump supporters are reminded that when Virginia Minor argued that her right to vote was a “freebie” (my word) of being a citizen in Minor v. Happersett, 1874, the Supreme Court clarified the following. Since women's suffrage was not expressly constitutionally protected, it was up to the individual states to decide if otherwise qualified women could vote, Minor living in a "wrong" state.

“3. The right of suffrage was not necessarily one of the privileges or immunities of citizenship before the adoption of the Fourteenth Amendment, and that amendment does not add to these privileges and immunities. It simply furnishes additional guaranty for the protection of such as the citizen already had [emphases added].” —Minor v. Happersett, 1874.

So Supreme Court case precedent has determined that states uniquely have the power to decide voter qualifications.

And that means that the states can use illegal aliens vote to sneak more voting power for a favored political party into the House of Representatives, right?

WRONG!

In stark contrast to elite Democrats now trying to unconstitutionally gift illegal aliens the right to vote to try to keep themselves in power, women had to fight for their suffrage which they eventually won, evidenced by the 19th Amendment.

"19th Amendment: The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex.

Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation."

Letting illegals get away with voting is a not only a slap in the face to women, but wrongly weakens the voting power of all qualified citizens.

In addition to illegals having no express constitutional power to vote, there's another MAJOR constitutional problem with allowing illegals to vote.

More specifically, the congressional record shows that post-Civil War lawmakers were concerned that renegade states that allowed illegal aliens to vote effectively wrongly nullify the Uniform Rule of Naturalization Clause.

"Article I, Section 8, Clause 4: To establish an uniform Rule of Naturalization [emphasis added], and uniform Laws on the subject of Bankruptcies throughout the United States;"
" If the States can admit to the elective franchise those who are not citizens, thereby neutralizing the votes of citizens, not only the Federal power of naturalization becomes a nullity, but" * * * * "a minority of citizens by the aid of aliens may control the government of the States, and through the States the government of the Union [emphasis added]." —Appendix to the Congressional Globe, 1868. (See near middle of 1st column.)
" Whatever difference there may be as to what other rights appertain to a citizen, all must agree that he has the right to petition and also to claim the Protection of the Government. These belong to him as a member the body politic, and the possession of them is what separates citizens of the lowest condition from aliens and slaves. To suppose that a State can make an alien a citizen or confer on him the right of voting would involve the absurdity of giving him the direct and immediate control of the action of the General Government, from which he can claim no protection and to which he has no right to present a petition [emphasis added]." —Appendix to the Congressional Globe, 1868. (See bottom half of 1st column.)

The bottom line concerning feds limiting the states in removing ineligible voters is that the feds themselves are unconstitutionally interfering with a federal election, evidenced by Speaker Johnson unthinkingly helping to nullify the constitution's Uniform Rule of Naturalization Clause imo.

Regarding renegade states allowing illegals to vote, note that Section 2 of the 14th Amendment (14A), that amendment ratified shortly after the excerpts above appeared in the congressional record, is a penalty for states where ballot box fraud has occurred.

Especially consider the zero tolerance "hair trigger" wording in that section that should be a warning for any state thinking about rigging an election, letting non-citizens vote just one example of doing so.

Excerpted from 14A:

"But when the right to vote at any election"
"is denied to any"
"or in any way abridged,"
"Section 2: Representatives shall be apportioned among the several States according to their respective numbers, counting the whole number of persons in each State, excluding Indians not taxed. But when the right to vote at any election [all emphases added] for the choice of electors for President and Vice President of the United States, Representatives in Congress, the Executive and Judicial officers of a State, or the members of the Legislature thereof, is denied to any of the male inhabitants of such State, being twenty-one years of age, and citizens of the United States, or in any way abridged, except for participation in rebellion, or other crime, the basis of representation therein shall be reduced in the proportion which the number of such male citizens shall bear to the whole number of male citizens twenty-one years of age in such State." [Apportionment of Representatives]
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."

In fact, consider that the post-Civil War congressional Republicans who drafted Section 2 made it to discourage Southern Democrats (my words) from rigging the ballot boxes that Democrats are now alleged to have done for 2020, 2022 and possibly earlier elections!

"Because slavery (except as punishment for crime) had been abolished by the Thirteenth Amendment, the freed slaves would henceforth be given full weight for purposes of apportionment. This situation was a concern to the Republican leadership of Congress, who worried that it would increase the political power of the former slave states, even as such states continued to deny freed slaves the right to vote." —Apportionment of Representatives

But even with its zero tolerance wording, Pence and the J6 Congress still ignored allegations of vote-counting fraud imo.

Also, in addition to trying to tap the illegal votes of illegal aliens to try to stay in power, desperate elite Democrats recently unilaterally threw out 14+ million primary votes for OBiden after his bad interview with Trump, giving OBiden's votes to presidentially unqualified (imo) Harris, and need to be held responsible for violating Section 2 imo.

With Section 2 in mind, consider that if this were a better world, the feds would be reminding all states before an election that the feds will be darkening the doorway of any state to investigate allegations of possible violations of constitutional voting integrity protections, including policing elections for violations of the Uniform Rule of Naturalization Clause.

Since Congress and renegade states have repeatedly proven that they are enemies of the people imo, it is now up to Democratic and Republican Trump supporters to effectively "impeach and remove" ALL (exceptions?) state and federal lawmakers and executives in November.

In fact, it's up to us Trump supporters to take the first MAJOR step in draining the swamp by supporting hopeful Trump 47 with a new, Constitution-respecting Congress, new state lawmakers too, not only so that he will not be a lame duck president from the first day of his second term, but will support him to quickly finish draining the swamp.

Finally, let's not allow the anti-Trump media try to fade our memories of what we witnessed on July 13.

We really need to get rid of this guy. He’s no better than McCarthy.

that because "Senate Democrats failed to pass a single appropriations bill or negotiate with the House on an acceptable topline number for FY 2025, a continuing resolution is the only option that remains."

so the Dems are obviously the ones in charge and running things...

The Congressional Republics constantly fail to give their voters what they want but magically are always able to reach across the aisle and deliver for their donors. More spending, more work visas, and higher taxes for their voters, but they will secure the border... of Ukraine.

You are stupid for asking the question. Just plain blind stupid.

you are hoping to fight the battle you so dearly want and simultaneously making a conscious decision to assure Trump is not elected.

STUPID, STUPID, STUPID

Simple and sure way to avoid a shutdown, if indeed it should be. Provision that any shutdown will include suspension of congress members pay as well. The problem is that

Lawmakers will continue to draw a paycheck even if they haven't reached a deal to fund the government. The reason is because of how their pay is treated under the Constitution and federal law. Article I, Section 6 of the Constitution states: "The Senators and Representatives shall receive a Compensation for their Services, to be ascertained by Law, and paid out of the Treasury of the United States." This means they must get paid whether or not other parts of the government are funded.

Lawmakers' pay has been funded by a permanent appropriation since 1983, according to a recent Congressional Research Service report, meaning funding for their pay doesn't need to be renewed annually.
