Democrats ‘Very Close’ To Keeping Cawthorn Off Ballot For 2022
 Carmine Sabia February 22, 2022

Republican North Carolina Congressman Madison Cawthorn said Democrats’ attempts to stop him from campaigning to keep his spot in Congress are “very close” to succeeding.

The representative appeared on Fox News on Monday and talked to host Tucker Carlson about what he said they are doing, MSN reported.

The Free Speech for People group cited Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which states that a person who “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” after taking a Congressional oath should be prevented from running again in their challenge.

The group claims that Cawthorn’s speech at the January 6 protest in Washington D.C. amounted to promoting an insurrection.

Democrats like to pretend that January 6, 2021, was the first time someone objected to votes for president in Congress.

But the fact is that Democrats objected to more states in 2016 than Republicans did in 2020, a Newsweek fact check reported.

And this is why the GOP loses. Zero coordinated research, legal, or messaging. This kind of ammo just slips thru the cracks and down the memory hole.
The Republic is lost.

Only if you are a total bleep.  You're being attacked by a shadow.  The best defense is to turn on the light.

Amendment XIV

Section 3.


No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any state legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any state, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof. But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

Guess what, Congressman?  You are a currently Congressman.  If you had "engaged in insurrection or rebellion against" the US, they would have already tried to remove you from office. 

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

-Ayn Rand-

I REALLY hope the tide turns on the Ds in November.  Would love to see some retribution.  Not holding my breath, though.
