Deluge Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 Stoopid b*tch is peddling the bullshit notion that this isn't political. She must think Americans are as dumb as the Left. lol AUGUSTA, Maine — Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows stepped into the national spotlight when she became the country’s first top elections official to rule former President Donald Trump is ineligible for the state’s 2024 Republican primary ballot. She’s done scores of television and radio interviews with national and regional outlets since her Dec. 28 decision, including chats with conservatives who have pushed her to explain how she found the Republican frontrunner violated Section 3 — the so-called insurrection clause — of the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Bellows has focused less on her finding that Trump violated the Constitution by inciting the Capitol riots of Jan. 6, 2021, and more on the requirement under Maine election law for her to rule on challenges to the eligibility of candidates. Her emphasis on the process rather than politics of the decision has done little to blunt the sharp Republican criticism she has faced. https://www.bangordailynews.com/2024/01/03/politics/how-shenna-bellows-defending-donald-trump-off-maine-ballot/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She held a hearing and she ruled. The ruling is subject to appeal. She said she will abide by whatever the final appeal determines. Nothing wrong with that. Basically, this issue will head to the US Supreme Court, they are heavily biased towards Trump. Whether she ruled for or against Trump is irrelevant; the issue is going to the US Supreme Court either way, so don’t get your panties all twisted up over her ruling. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry. And while the appeal will straighten that out the fact is that doesn't make her attack on democracy right.

No, she thinks it's her job, but what she's really doing is trying to derail Donald Trump's Presidential campaign. There's no reason for Bellows to rule on anything. The SCOTUS is here to make rulings that actually matter, not serve as a blockade against left-wing radicals. The desperate b*tch is wasting everyone's time.

WestCanMan Posted January 4 Report Share Posted January 4 When someone has to explain how, "in their opinion an insurrection occurred and someone was involved in it", there wasn't an insurrection. The Jan 6th committee had to alter video to make it seem like an insurrection: case closed. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You obviously KNOW NOTHING about all the planning that went into Jan 6th, cause you've never been shown the sworn testimony by WH insiders presented in the BIPARTISAN Select Committee Hearing and to Jack Smith's Grand Juries. Of course no one has seen the latter, cause GJ are secret. Just google Trump WH meeting Dec 18th 2021 to find out what happened 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meaning he actually supports things like free speech and equal application of the law. You pointing out that Dershowitz 'took OJ's side' in that murder trial really sounds childish. Can you not comprehend that every defendant, no matter what you may think of them, is entitled to legal representation? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, pervert, the Constitution doesn't give you degenerates the right to remove Trump from the ballot. That is banana republic shit and has no place in our Constitutional Republic.

When Trump claimed that Obama’s birth certificate was fake, it was the Secretary of State of Hawaii who was the final authority on the subject. He issued a formal letter stating that he had visited the State Archives, that he personally inspected the original birth certificate, and that it was genuine. Secretary of State had the job of establishing Obama’s Constitutional eligibility to be President. Not Congress. Not the Supreme Court.

Sure - and that record keeping duty is clearly spelled out as being their responsiblity It is not the responsibility of the state to determine who's an insurrectionist or to remove people's rights without trial. Again- don't complain when the republicans twist laws to screw with your candidates in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF they are then it is up to the state legislature to say how they will be run those primaries and who can run. under Article 2 state legislatures don't even need to hold elections they can just appoint who ever they want and tell them who to vote for at the EC. of course IF they did this I am sure the people of their state would be really mad and they would not have a job for too long GOD BLESS AMERICA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its amazing she took the ONLY state that ruled to remove Trump from the ballot, while every other challenge has been shot down to remove him from the ballot. I will be willing to bet she wants to run for higher office and this was a good way to get her name in the news. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
