    If you're from Colorado, you'd know what Prop HH, SB-181 and TABOR is...

    Again, Prop HH was defeated soundly, that the people did not want to use TABOR funds for the property tax relief. The special session is merely to find a way to initiate the law anyhow.. Like they did when Prop 112 fail. Colorado Senate gave a proverbial "FU" of the voters and passed SB-181... the same proposition that was defeated and then some.

    Regarding crime.. I've lived in this state since 1982. Crime has never been to this level and that has much to do with the catch and release the states DA's have done.

    Crime report shows Colorado No. 1 for violent crime among 22 most populous states- many victims aren't reporting

    Yeah. You just can't take chances with elections! You can't count on people to vote right.

    There is nearly no one in the legal or political community that agrees with this. Seems like an easy overturn for the Supreme Court.

    I think they are best exemplified by honorable people- and you can measure that honor by the actions people are willing to take.

    I haven't seen any among the primary leftists or democrats that support honor in a very long time. I've voted for many democrats over the years, because I vote for the best man. The dems don't have any of those today. I didn't make that true- they did.

    When the rules are suspended by allowing the dishonorable to even play the game- the game will always degrade to the lowest common denominator. The idea for those who have no honor is that once they can get that allowed, they can blame everyone else for doing it too. Then it's a liars contest, and they have unlimited capacity in that area.

    People lacking honor do not understand the value it has for themselves, they see no reason to respect any one or anything else- so there are no rules for them, and anything they can get by with is legitimate in their eyes.

    Maybe we can say Hillary was honest too. How far down the sewer do you want to go?
    All truth isn't pretty, but it's still true- and if you have any self-respect, you will deal with it.
    If you don't you are comfortable parroting the lies instead. Your choice.

    Are you telling me that those three Colorado courts had no right to hear this case?

    Still, I'm glad you're now paying attention to what the Grand Jury decides.

    Because there are four different ones that voted to bring criminal charges against Trump and you brushed them aside..... all of them.

    Proof once again that you tailor your so-called legal analysis to your political views.

    Evidence has never been presented to show any "rigging" of the 2020 election. What we do have ample evidence for is Trump knowing it was not rigged but choosing to lie about it anyway, and using that lie to incite violent insurrection in a bid to stop the certification of the election results, just so he could stay in office.

    And this lying piece of **** is the (Я) favorite for the nomination next year. But they aren't ashamed because we live in a shameless time, when extremists feel emboldened and justified because they have a powerful cult leader pandering to them and telling them they are right.

    Democracy is NOT designed to have people vote "right". That kind of expection and format exists in places like Russia.
    The point is that DJT should NOT qualify to be on the ballot because of his behavior. It is astounding to see how some continue to justify his actions as if they were acceptable. No one else can get away with what he ahs gotten away with and still be so admired. Where are the values that the R's have claimed to have ??

    **********
    will tuck this in here ..

    It was always likely that the Supreme Court would play an ultimate role in deciding the many novel issues raised by former President Donald Trump’s legal travails. But the day may have come sooner than expected.

    The justices will soon decide whether to weigh in on Trump’s broad immunity claim in his election interference case and his forthcoming appeal seeking to block a Colorado ruling that says he is ineligible to run for office.

    Clinton didn't start an insurrection and get 1000 people thrown in jail, nor did people get sued after she lost. Your comparison is a joke. Again, read George Washington's farewell address, and about stepping down from power, which Trump has been incapable of doing and his supporters are just as guilty.

    See, I am not a fan of Donald Trump. Could care less about the man.

    I am only concerned with our Constitution and Colorado is out of line and out of control. It does not take a legal scholar to understand that much.

    <Rule 3>

    Thanks to the Last Refuge who can break it down for you..
    https://theconservativetreehouse.co...-at-they-even-admit-it-on-page-9/#more-253983
    https://www.courts.state.co.us/user...ation/Supreme_Court/Opinions/2023/23SA300.pdf

    page 9....

    As long as President Trump appeals the decision to the Supreme Court, the appeals court stays their own ruling – essentially indefinitely. The Colorado primary ballots printed, and the primary election will be over, before the Supreme Court puts this on their docket.
    In addition to the virtual guarantee the high court will overrule this political nonsense, SCOTUS can make the entire issue moot before them by following their own normal schedule for submissions, arguments, deliberation and opinions delivered by the court.
    The Colorado appellate court knows this, that’s why they put this self-stay into their 4-3 ruling. It’s a politically correct way of giving the optics of telling their tribe, ‘hey we’re with you,’ without the ramifications of the political backlash. In other words, psychological lawfare stuff – intended for media consumption.

    Were you going to provide the hundreds of mutilated bodies killed and maimed by these 4 pages of weapon carrying insurrectionist or just tell us how much they hurt your feelings.

    They were so enraged they they put the guys shield down for him then told him they weren't going to hurt him?
    Did you want to see some videos of murdered police by leftist rioters?

    Democrats are afraid he will win and close the border. If there is any criminal here it is Biden.

    If Trump is elected, the Colorado Supreme Court must be arrested and put on trial for election interference. An example must be made that this kind of behavior is not tolerated. Anything less than this is a defeat for America.

    "Trying to overthrow democracy is okay because they failed." Got it. Of course, by that logic there would be no 14th Amendment at all.

    They can interpret whether someone is guilty of a crime they've not even been charged with? Yes I won't be going to you for any Con Law classes.

    If you say so

    Well, since you're the only one making such a claim, I would say you need to deal with your issues.

    Except y’all haven’t been able to prove any fraud — we have. FL, NC, MI — not to mention seditious conspiracy and certainly a few of the almost 100 counts over 4 indictments will bare fruit.

    What do y’all have?
