The Supreme Court has turned away a convicted member of the Jan. 6 mob who was barred from public office in New Mexico under the Constitution's "insurrection clause" seeking to reverse his disqualification.

If trump were running for governor of florida they'd let him do that too.
I knew this particular SCOTUS had no respect for stare decisis but I never knew it was this extreme!

Much like the J6 hearings. Soooooo partisan. [taken and accepted as irony(?)]
- - - - Exactly! Obviously, not mutually exclusive...
- - - - - - - No, that was based on evidence and testimony.
The 2021-2022 J6 hearings were vice-chaired by Liz Cheney(R), assisted by Adam Kinzinger(R), and both were active in the MSM at the time... so were clearly bipartisan.
There was also a recent GOP [partisan] House committee "investigating the J6 committee" which was attempting to undermine the J6 committee conclusions and some of its witnesses.

I guess, the double irony in my response didn't quite come through. Oh well, happens... It's pretty off topic, anyway.

... The soooooo partisan "Biden Impeachment Inquiry" has produced a "highly credible witness" ex-FBI informant Alexander Smirnov... who turned out to be a dis-informant working for Russian intelligence service. That was a laugh riot! Who says politics can't be funny?
Still OT re thread, but in the same lane re "Biden Impeachment Inquiry" - another GOP "most credible [witness] by far," Hunter's former business associate Tony Bobulinski's emails and WhatsApp messages have just been released and it doesn't look good for Tony and the inquiry:

Maybe someone cares to post a thread on that...
