That was my thought, too. Question: Are there any dead presidents (live ones don't count) who did not have military service, buried at Arlington? הרחפת שלי מלאה בצלופחים | |||

Republicans need to keep these RHINO’s from being candidates. They need to join the Socialist/Democrat party if they want to hold office with views that would allow them to vote for something they themselves thought unconstitutional. —————— Thank you for contacting me regarding my vote to convict former President Trump on the article of impeachment presented against him. I appreciate hearing from you. January 6, 2021 was a grim day in our nation’s history. The attack on the U.S. Capitol was an attempt to undermine our democratic institutions and overrule the will of the American people through violence, intimidation, and force. Seven lives were tragically lost as a result of that day. Law enforcement officers, outnumbered and overwhelmed, sustained debilitating injuries as they bravely defended Congress against an angry mob. We now know that lawmakers and congressional staff came dangerously close to crossing paths with the rioters searching for them and wishing them harm. When this process started, I believed that it was unconstitutional to impeach a president who was no longer in office. I still believe that to be the case. However, the Senate is an institution based on precedent, and given that the majority in the Senate voted to proceed with the trial, the question of constitutionality for a former president is now established precedent. As an impartial juror, my role was to determine whether House managers had sufficiently made the case for the article of impeachment against President Trump. I listened to the arguments presented by both sides and considered the facts. The facts are clear. The President promoted unfounded conspiracy theories to cast doubt on the integrity of a free and fair election because he did not like the results. As Congress met to certify the election results, the President directed his supporters to go to the Capitol to disrupt the lawful proceedings required by the Constitution. When the crowd became violent, the President used his office to first inflame the situation instead of immediately calling for an end to the assault. As I said on January 6, the President bears responsibility for these tragic events. The evidence is compelling that President Trump is guilty of inciting an insurrection against a coequal branch of government and that the charge rises to the level of “high crimes and misdemeanors.” Therefore, I voted to convict. I did not make this decision lightly, but I believe it was necessary. By what he did and by what he did not do, President Trump violated his oath of office to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States. My hope is that with impeachment behind us America can begin to move forward and focus on the critical issues facing our country today. Again, thank you for contacting me.

Well, Senator Burr...  "If you’re a leader, you lead the way. Not just on the easy ones; you take the tough ones too…” – MAJ Richard D. Winters (1918-2011), E Company, 2nd Battalion, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne "Woe to those who call evil good, and good evil... Therefore, as tongues of fire lick up straw and as dry grass sinks down in the flames, so their roots will decay and their flowers blow away like dust; for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty and spurned the word of the Holy One of Israel." - Isaiah 5:20,24 | |||

Screw you Burr... Just because the Socialist-controlled senate voted to proceed with the sham impeachment doesnt change or override what is in the constitution. Chief Justice Roberts had the good sense (for once) to opt out, also contravening the constitution. Burr is a RINO piece of shit and I will be glad to see him leave office. I just hope the R's can find a decent candidate to replace him, or Roy Stupor will be in the Senate.

Thanks EZ B. Maybe the international press will come to our rescue. Until our press becomes honest and impartial we are in a serious bind. _____________________ Be careful what you tolerate. You are teaching people how to treat you. | |||

Thanks for the video, but how about at least posting its full title, if not a description (which would be even better)?

Bills of Attainder are unconstitutional, and the proposed legislation to ban twice impeached but not convicted presidents from Arlington applies to only one President in history. As such it is unconstitutional. And of course, it's violation of due process and equal protection to punish anyone who was acquitted of all charges. Either the democrats are too stupid to understand the Constitution and their jobs, or they don't care, which is a violation of their oath of office. | |||

earlier in this thread I tried to keep track of the split of DEM/REP in the House of Representatives after the Nov 2020 election Still a bit messy to describe, but my best look: Currently: 221 DEMs 211 REPs 3 vacancies 435 total members What are the vacancies ? Louisiana 5 Luke Letlow (R) died in Dec 2020 before assuming office. Special election on 20 Mar 2021 Texas 6 Ron Wright (R) died 7 Feb 2021. Special election to be held later in 2021 Louisiana 2 Cedric Richmond (D) joined the Biden Administration. Special election on 20 Mar 2021 xxxxxxxxx The DEMs are still plotting how to steal Iowa 2. Mariannette Miller-Meeks (R) won by 6 votes. She is currently seated in the House and is part of the 211 REPs listed above. Marc Elias of Perkins Coie law firm is leading the effort to steal the seat for the DEMs. https://www.breitbart.com/poli...ested-iowa-election/ The Democrat-controlled House of Representatives has taken initial steps to make a decision in a contested Iowa election, one involving Republican Rep. Mariannette Miller-Meeks and Amy Hart, who lost to Miller-Meeks by six votes. Democrats have now begun to shift their focus to the race after Hart’s continuous claim that Miller-Meeks was improperly declared the winner, although multiple recounts have shown otherwise. the “House Administration Committee gathered virtually Friday afternoon to finalize the process by which it will adjudicate Hart’s claim, which was filed under the Federal Contested Elections Act.” With a slim, five seat majority, it appears Democrats have realized the importance of the seat currently held by Miller-Meeks, who was sworn in in January. “Members unanimously agreed to a resolution that establishes procedures the committee will abide by as it considers recent elections contested under the act,” According to the Hart campaign, which offered praise for the committee for “ensuring that every legally-cast vote is counted,” there are 22 ballots that were improperly rejected. Hart’s team of lawyers claim she would have defeated Miller-Meeks by nine votes if the improperly rejected ballots in question were not improperly rejected. Hart’s team of lawyers, led by Marc Elias , who represented Democrat challenges to state rules throughout the 2020 election, alleged in a court filing earlier this month that a close congressional race in New York’s 22nd Congressional District between Republican Claudia Tenney and Democrat Anthony Brindisi was marred by faulty voting machines Last December, during a video shared to social media, Hart insisted she is not challenging the results through Iowa courts because “ there was only one way that we could get the result that we need, and that is to take this to the Committee on House Administration .” With more than 400,000 votes cast and an official recount certified by state officials, it was confirmed that Hart was defeated by Miller-Meeks by six votes. xxxxxxxxxx same old game. "count every vote". keep counting till the DEM gets ahead. stop counting | |||

Some of them may be too stupid, but I think the majority just don't care about the Constitution, and never have. They violate their oaths all the time and think nothing of it. May they all be struck by lightning for dissing God. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

Trump to Speak at CPAC in First Post-Presidency Appearance Ian Walters, spokesman for the American Conservative Union, confirmed that Trump will be speaking at the group’s annual Conservative Political Action Conference on Feb. 28. Trump is expected to use the speech to talk about the future of the Republican Party and the conservative moment, as well as to criticize President Joe Biden’s efforts to undo his immigration policies, according to a person who spoke on condition of anonymity. CPAC is being held this year in Orlando, Florida, and will feature a slew of former Trump administration officials including former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, as well as Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem. Trump has been keeping a relatively low profile since he moved from the White House to Palm Beach, Florida, in January, but reemerged last week to conduct a series of phone interviews to commemorate the death of conservative commentator Rush Limbaugh. Trump has a long history with CPAC, which played a key role in his emergence as a political force. https://www.westernjournal.com...tent=libertyalliance Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||
