Top GOP lawmakers, including Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, and House Speaker Mike Johnson defended Trump to the Supreme Court. They questioned if he was an insurrectionist.

What does “insurrection” even mean?

That’s the question top Republican lawmakers — including Mitch McConnell, who previously held Donald Trump responsible for the riot on January 6, 2021 — are asking the Supreme Court in a brief defending him from being disqualified in the 2024 election.

In a legal brief filed Thursday, 179 Republican politicians urged the court to overturn a Colorado Supreme Court ruling that kicked Trump off the 2024 ballot because it found he violated the 14th Amendment’s Section 3, which bans those who “engaged in” insurrection from running.

    Moscow Mitch said he didn’t vote to impeach because he should be criminally convicted instead.

    What what’s fucking new with that shit stain of a human?

      I’m continually shocked they can stand upright, what without a recognizable spine and all. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: bunch of cuckolds, the whole lot of 'em.
