For now, in a GOP House, the bill is mostly virtue signaling, but tellingly Raskin is not so much trying to define insurrection as trying to define J6 as an insurrection. It’s the typical end run around the process of defining the thing because otherwise Democrat BLMers might fall afoul of it.Congress will have to try and act,” Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the ranking member of the House Oversight Committee, told Axios.What he’s saying: Raskin, a former member of the Jan. 6 select committee, said he is already crafting the bill, telling Axios, “I’m working on it — today.”Raskin pointed to legislation he introduced with Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) in 2022 creating a pathway for the Justice Department to sue to keep candidates off the ballot under the 14th Amendment.“We are going to revise it in light of the Supreme Court’s decision,” Raskin said.Raskin suggested the bill would be paired with a resolution declaring Jan. 6 an “insurrection” and that those involved “engaged in insurrection.”
Forget BLM for a moment. Giving aid or comfort to America’s enemies would block nearly every Democrat from taking or holding office. Pass a resolution declaring that funding Iran or any other terror group was an example of providing aid or comfort to America’s enemies and the party can get started.“An individual described in this subsection is an individual who has engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or has given aid or comfort to the enemies of the United States.”

The Raskin bill conveniently defines J6 as an insurrection and carefully defines the term so as to specifically apply it to Trump. It does not however define what an insurrection is making the whole exercise into a bill that specifically exists to block a particular candidate from being able to take office on grounds that would be unlikely to apply to his own party. Does that raise some major banana republic issues? Obviously.Still, has Raskin considered what kind of can of worms he’s opening here?

What courts?
Have you been in a **** coma?
You must have had your head far up your ***!!! The US Supreme Court struck that unConstitutional **** down, ****.

An appeal doesn't affect the factual findings.

If you do not see the Colorado SC and other states unConstitutional attempt to keep Trump off ballots as a blatant dim-0-crap attempt to deprive American Citizens of their right to vote for the candidate of their choice and UNDEMOCRATIC then you are stupider that I thought.
Dim-0-craps know that in a fair and fraudulent free election that braindead biden cannot beat Trump. Therefore, their incessant political persecution of Trump.
I understand you have terminal TDS, ****!!! The USSC ruled that states cannot arbitrarily remove a candidate off their ballots because they fear him or even just dislike him. The insurrection ploy was just an excuse. Trump has not even been charged with insurrection, let alone convicted, ****!!!

Why are you for depriving US citizens of the right to vote for the candidate of their choice? What are you afraid of?
Morons like you are the only ones who could possibly be gullible enough to swallow it when Biden tells you he's standing up for democracy by attempting to limit your right to vote in a democracy!

Stupid Democrat will get his *** kicked AGAIN, for trying to pass an ex post facto law which in this case would also be a bill of attainder (actually bill of pains and penalties), not to mention the fact the Supreme Court has already addressed this.

I think he's disqualified for numerous reasons.
It was republicans in Colorado who were ashamed to have an insurrectionist rapist on the ballot.
