• More 14th amendment

    From mINE109@21:1/5 to All on Tue Jan 2 13:12:22 2024
    Tired: Section 3

    Wired: Section 2

    "But when the right to vote at any election 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."

    Suppress the vote, lose a Congressional seat.

    As if. The fuckuplicans would rather burn down the statehouses.

    The process for enforcing is even less clear than that for Section 3.

    Headline in today's WaPo: Dumpster's support among "the base" is stronger than ever.
    Seems MAGA-stan hates the existing political order more than they hate crimes.

    Go figure. On the plus side, Biden leads Trump in many reputable recent
    polls.
