Without Even Bothering With the Fig Leaf of a Trial, the Partisan Democrat Lunatic Maine Secretary of State Decrees, On Her Own Non-Existent Authority, That Trump is an Insurrectionist and Must Be Removed from the Primary Ballot

Hopefully we'll soon see a lawsuit and that the Supreme Court takes up this matter immediately and adds it to the Colorado election-rigging.

The left are insurrectionists and must be prosecuted as such.

Ed Morrissey, who then quotes the Washington Post:

In Maine, Democrats didn't even bother with a judicial pretense. Also yesterday, Maine's secretary of state Shenna Bellows barred Trump from appearing on the ballot after she decreed Trump an insurrectionist based on three challenges from registered voters. Bellows held a hearing two weeks prior to take testimony, and deduced Trump's guilt without any trial or judicial involvement at all:

"The events of January 6, 2021 were unprecedented and tragic," Bellows wrote in Thursday's decision. "They were an attack not only upon the Capitol and government officials, but also an attack on the rule of law. The evidence here demonstrates that they occurred at the behest of, and with the knowledge and support of, the outgoing President. The U.S. Constitution does not tolerate an assault on the foundations of our government, and [Maine law] requires me to act in response."
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung said Trump would quickly appeal the Maine decision.
"Democrats in blue states are recklessly and un-Constitutionally suspending the civil rights of the American voters by attempting to summarily remove President Trump's name from the ballot," Cheung said in a statement. "Make no mistake, these partisan election interference efforts are a hostile assault on American democracy."

Morrissey points out that sec. 3 was created specifically to bar Confederate soldiers from running for office. The judges in Colorado, and now this fruitbat Maine operative, just blow this off and decide that they will stretch the definition of the Confederacy.

He also points out that the law directs Congress, not the Colorado Supreme Court nor the Maine Secretary of State, to create legislation to address this. Congress has not in fact done this.

2/
In every case they do the same things:

1. Ask forgiveness not permission.

The woke activist will simply abuse their power by doing whst they want and seeing if they can get away with it. They do not ask if what they are doing is allowed, they simply do it and see if...

36 He also points out that the law directs Congress, not the Colorado Supreme Court nor the Maine Secretary of State, to create legislation to address this. Congress has not in fact done this.

That's...kind of true. Congress passed some guidance on the issue, as Wiki summarizes:

Section 3 does not specify how it is to be invoked, but Section 5 says Congress has enforcement power. Accordingly, Congress enforced Section 3 by enacting Sections 14 and 15 of the Enforcement Act of 1870, the pertinent portion of which was repealed in 1948; there is still a current federal statute (18 U.S.C. § 2383) that was initially part of the Confiscation Act of 1862 (and revised in 194, disqualifying insurrectionists from federal office...

...After the amendment's adoption in 1868, disqualification was seldom enforced in the South. At the urging of President Ulysses S. Grant, in 1872 Congress passed the Amnesty Act, which removed the disqualification from all but the most senior Confederates. In 1898, as a "gesture of national unity" during the Spanish–American War, Congress passed another law broadening the amnesty...

They know this will be overturned, the Maine one especially, even liberals are saying as much.

So why do it? It'll just garner Trump more support, and if he loses it'll give more ammo to people to say it's rigged.

I don't think it'll sway enough moderates who will go "Trump was banned from running, so now I'll vote for Biden" Unless the goal is to claim that's the case when they stuff the ballot box with Dem votes.

The only reasons i can see are signaling to the party that they're willing to do anything for the "resistance," attempting to parlay this into a higher position in gov or a TV gig (mostly with the Maine tramp) or to try and gin up more violence against the SCotUS when it's finally overturned.

66 What this Shenna Bellows twat-headed leftwing shit-whore did is actually much worse than what Colorado did. Colorado at least had some conceivable semblance of a judicial proceeding and seven actual judges making a decision.

Bellows is just one single government paper-pushing bureaucrat. She's not a judge, not a court of law, and to my knowledge has no authority to make legal decisions like this. That's an order of magnitude worse than what Colorado did.

This twat basically announced that she hates Trump and therefore he's off the ballot. If she can do that, than almost any paper-pushing bureaucrat can do the same. What about the guy who prints the ballots? Can he decide he hates Trump and won't include Trump on the ballot?

I don't see why everyone assumes the Supreme court will overturn these bans. The 4 liberal judges would never vote against their party, Roberts will definitely rule against Trump, and one or two of the Trump nominees will go against him due to antifa threatening their families. So at minimum, you're look at a 6-3 decision against Trump. By the time the Republican convention rolls around, he'll be taken off so many state ballots, Haley will cruise to the nomination.

174 He will open up the Doomsday Book and read the terrible sacred words therein.

"And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, 'O Lord, bless this thy hand grenade, that with it thou mayst blow thine enemies to tiny bits, in thy mercy.' And the Lord did grin. And the people did feast upon the lambs, and sloths, and carp, and anchovies, and orangutans, and breakfast cereals, and fruit bats, and large chulapas...

(At this point, Brother Maynard's Brother is interrupted by Maynard himself, who tells him "Skip a bit, Brother." Maynard's Brother continues.)

And the Lord spake, saying, ''First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less. Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'

Any president is going to disappoint me in some way. There are no guarantees, even that a sincere person cannot be turned by the left.

I think the judges in Colorado and this wench in Maine are trying to make names for themselves by jumping the gun, but the Democrats know that Jack Smith is most certainly going to get Trump convicted of insurrection by a DC jury, so that when the Supreme Court finally gets around to these challenges after Trump is convicted, they WILL be completely legal. Once the Supremes back this, he'll be thrown off the vast majority of the rest of the state ballots and that, as they say, is all she wrote.

I find that interesting, because they backed off of guns at the same time as ramping up naked assaults on liberty and dignity on literally every other front.

I believe the thinking goes like this: "we have a lead-pipe cinch on these people. We can make them do whatever we want, and they will *never* push back, for fear of our machine. The guns also give them a false sense of security and make them all the more complacent. When we tell them to get on the trains, they'll obey, guns or no guns, so let them have their blankies."

If SCOTUS does not take it up, or Roberts tries to weasel out of making an actual ruling, then the other half of the country will presume that there is no point in voting to change things.

Either way, I do not see any path out of this (absent Nature insuring that neither are on the ballot) that does not end in horror.

He’s largely succeeded and for that reason alone deserves a place in history books…. His success is exactly why TPTB hate him so….

A proper response of a red state is to declare all Democrats are ineligible to be on the ballot.
Not this weak-kneed BS speculation that maybe they should consider looking at the possibility of a commission to review the potential for investigating the notion of maybe removing only Biden.

All Democrats--city, county, and statewide--unless Trump is on the ballot in all states.

"Left" is an ungood word. "Woke" is a bad joke. The normal humps who don't care and just take the default are learning that their safe, trusty default is now not very nice at all. Without that, the Default Left has nothing. They will either go full bolshevik (and immediately die, being completely outgunned and outnumbered), or they will wither back into an anachronistic irrelevancy.

294 As I mentioned... as long as the issue of whether Trump can be on a primary ballot or not stays within the political arena and doesn't end up in endless legal battles this whole issue is moot.

Once the courts, be it state or local get involved it opens a Pandora's Box for other states to mimic and keep the legal processes tied up for as long as they wish. Keeping Trump off the general election ballots in as many states as possible is the end goal here.

This is lawfare and the left owns the battlespace. Once the next prez is selected for us the entire issue becomes moot again.

This could be done through pardons and thus former Confederate VP Alexander Stephens eventually served after the war as a U.S. representative from Georgia. Others served in appointed Federal posts. During the Spanish-American War President McKinley appointed four Confederate generals as U.S. generals as North and South prepared to fight a common foe. General Joseph "Fighting Joe" Wheeler, during one fight with the Spaniards, saw the enemy retreating and (according to legend, anyway) cried out, "Come on, boys! We've got the damn Yankees on the run!"
