Trump SCOTUS Defense Does not Deny Insurrection, Insists on Presidential Exemption

In our nation no one is above the law. Not even former presidents. It is telling that Donald Trump’s lawyer in the Supreme Court today made no effort to assert that his client had not fomented an insurrection. He did not refute that Donald Trump on January 6 directed heavily-armed militants to go the Capitol to “fight like hell” to disrupt the certification of the 2020 presidential election as part of his attempt to deny the will of the people and steal the election.

It’s easy to discount such "conspiracy theory nonsense" from random trolls on X, but it’s powerful when it comes from Musk, who owns the platform, said Anthony Gutierrez, executive director of Common Cause Texas, a group that advocates for voting rights.

Lincoln Journal Star (Bài xã luận): Tôn trọng sự thỏa hiệp

Nếu phiên họp năm 2024 là một trang mới như Chủ tịch Arch đã cầu xin, thì Thượng nghị sĩ Halloran cần phải tôn trọng thỏa thuận của mình. Bất kỳ nỗ lực nào để thông qua nghị quyết Điều V đều phải được gác lại cho đến năm 2027. Việc giữ lời hứa và thỏa hiệp trong toàn bộ nhiệm kỳ của họ thực sự sẽ là một "mô hình" cho các cơ quan lập pháp tiểu bang khác.
