Watchdog says insurrectionist lawmakers should be barred from public office — including Trump
a non-profit legal advocacy group on Tuesday cited the 14th Amendment as it demanded Republicans who aided the January 6 insurrection—including former President Donald Trump—be barred from holding public office in the future.
The democracy watchdog Free Speech for People sent letters to the secretaries of state of all 50 states as part of its 14point3 campaign, calling attention to
Section 3 of the 14th Amendment, which states:
No Person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice-President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State,
who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State,
to support the Cons ution of the United States,
shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.

If Pelosi had any spine, she should have refused to seat the House Repugs who signed to annul the election.
She didn't so know they know they can violate whatever without punishment,
