Two leftist lawyers are attempting to overturn the results of the 2024 election by urging Congress to disqualify President-elect Donald Trump under the 14th Amendment. Evan Davis and David Schulte’s proposal ignores the will of the American people and twists the Constitution to achieve political ends.
The lawyers allege that Trump engaged in “insurrection,” despite no legal conviction to support the claim. They point to his second impeachment trial, which ended in acquittal, as evidence.
Jamie Raskin is saying that congress will STOP Trump from taking office even if he’s chosen by the voters.
This is extremely dangerous. Every Democrat needs to be on the record about this immediately. pic.twitter.com/9IwRoGrrQu

Their second argument, based on the Colorado Supreme Court’s disqualification of Trump, was invalidated by the U.S. Supreme Court, which ruled that states cannot bar federal candidates.
The democrats are threatening to not certify elections. This is treason against President Trump and Americans. Don't forget he said this.
I truly hope Jaime Raskin understands what ex parte milligan is. pic.twitter.com/qrp9GNrQnQ

Finally, they rely on findings from the January 6 Committee, a panel discredited by evidence of witness tampering and fabricated testimonies. The House Oversight Committee has since determined that Trump neither incited violence nor encouraged chants of “Hang Mike Pence!”
🚨TREASON: Propaganda machine The Hill is now plotting an insurrection to stop President Trump. Demanding that Congress use the 14th Amendment to block Trump from taking office in January.

The lawyers’ plan involves using the Electoral Count Act to reject Trump’s votes and declare Kamala Harris president. This brazen attempt to bypass voters is a direct assault on democracy and the rule of law.
LET’S BE CLEAR: PRESIDENT TRUMP WON THE POPULAR VOTE AND ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTE (WITHOUT CHEATING):
REP. RASKIN: "It's gonna be up to us on January 6, 2025 to tell the rampaging Trump mobs that he's disqualified."

By pushing this plan, Davis and Schulte advocate for an anti-democratic maneuver that undermines the will of millions of Americans who chose Trump to lead the nation.
The hill, along with Jaime raskin, are plotting an insurrection against President Trump.
