Which reminds me that Kevin Sorbo tried pushing for the Jan 6 insurrection and after it failed, he deleted the posts and said it was an Antifa plot to frame Donald Trump.

Reminder that QAnon Shaman is running for Congress in Arizona's 8th district as a Libertarian. That doesn't exactly describe a leftist agitator.

It feels like he should be disqualified from holding office.

[-] stinerman@midwest.social 35 points 9 months ago

He should be but the 14th Amendment keeps him out only if he previously took an oath to the Constitution. You can go all out full shooting war against the federal government but as long as you weren't already elected or appointed or whatever, you're still eligible.

He was in the military and therefore swore an oath. He's absolutely disqualified under the 14th amendment.

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 13 points 9 months ago

That is my interpretation too. It feels wrong or at least lacking.

Now if only we could make changes to it somehow... Like amend it or something?

[-] hdnsmbt@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

Amendments need a functioning government willing to change shit for the better in a bipartisan way. That's not going to happen for a long time.
