That violates a rarely cited provision of the 14th Amendment and makes her ineligible to run for reelection, according to the challenge.





The Lawsuit seeks to keep GOP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene from running for reelection
The amendment says no one can serve in Congress "who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress . . . to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same."

Greene, 47, filed a lawsuit earlier this month asking a judge to declare that the law that the voters are using to challenge her eligibility is itself unconstitutional and to prohibit state officials from enforcing it.


But but AOC

Fine let’s dump green, AND admit that AOC is a dingbat.

Two things can be true at the same
time

Green isn’t the biggest problem in the world right now, either. but you brought her up for political reasons

You’d rather talk about Green than inflation or crime or immigration. But it’s ok when you bring up a politically useful distraction.

Green doesn’t have 1% of the clout in congress that AOC does. You challenged me support the notion that AOC is powerful, i provided links from CNN, ABC, CBS talking about how powerful AOC is. you never responded. couldn’t just admit what everyone knows, that yea she is powerful.

gotta protect that narrative.
