 far-right politicians are dragging America back to the 19th century. Well, if Republicans are so keen to wind back the clock, I suggest reviving a 19th century provision of the Constitution. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. It states that anyone who has taken an oath to protect the Constitution can be barred from holding public office if they, quote, have engaged in insurrection against the United States. Sound familiar? A judge in New Mexico thought so and recently used it to permanently ban an insurrectionist from ever holding any state or federal office again. A county commissioner named Coy Griffin spent months normalizing violence to keep Trump in office. I've come to a place where I've come to the conclusion that the only good Democrat is a dead Democrat. And urged supporters to travel to Washington with him on January 6th. Griffin also voted twice against certifying New Mexico's 2022 primary election, fueled by conspiracy theories about the security of voting equipment. His case proves that it is possible to expel public officials who violate their oaths to the Constitution. Any lawmakers who engaged in insurrection on January 6th must be held accountable and barred from holding public office, now or in the future. And yes, that includes Donald Trump.
