The clause states, \u201cnor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Now, I guess Congress could argue that declaring Trump &#8220;disqualified&#8221; is not putting him in jeopardy\u00a0of life or limb, but it does not address the issue of there being a complete lack of ANY conviction for &#8220;insurrection.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Trump was never criminally charged for &#8220;insurrection.&#8221;\u00a0 He was politically Impeached\u00a0and was Acquitted at &#8220;TRIAL&#8221; in the Senate.\u00a0 \u00a0I believe that TRIAL protects Trump from being &#8220;Disqualified&#8221; but again, I&#8217;m not a lawyer, so I don&#8217;t know.<\/p>\n<p>Yet one wonders what is going through the mind of a sitting Congressman that he would dare even consider directly challenging the Sovereign power of the people of the United States?<\/p>\n<p>The fact that he even went so far as to publicly mention this is simply astonishing to me. Unfathomable!<\/p>\n<p>So folks in the United States should be aware that there is apparently a plan afoot in Congress, to defy American voters if President Trump is re-elected in today&#8217;s election.<\/p>\n<p>In 1787, America&#8217;s Founding Fathers foresaw a potential situation wherein the Representatives of the people &#8220;betray their Constituents.&#8221;\u00a0 Their advice from 1787 seems relevant to this situation, today.<\/p>\n<p>After the Revolutionary War, the Founding Fathers crafted what is now our Constitution.\u00a0 \u00a0In order to keep the then-citizens informed about what they were creating, the Founding Fathers published a series of political letters referred to as the &#8220;Federalist Papers.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>One of those Founding Fathers was a man named Alexander Hamilton. He&#8217;s not some arcane minor player.\u00a0 \u00a0He&#8217;s the guy whose image is on the front of the $10 bills in\u00a0your\u00a0pocket or wallet.\u00a0 An image of a $10 bill appears below:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3864\" src=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/US10dollarbill-Series_2004A-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"644\" srcset=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/US10dollarbill-Series_2004A-1.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/US10dollarbill-Series_2004A-1-300x161.jpg 300w, https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/US10dollarbill-Series_2004A-1-1024x550.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/11\/US10dollarbill-Series_2004A-1-768x412.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When the Founding Fathers wrote the Federalist Papers, they numbered them.\u00a0 \u00a0Federalist 28 was written by Hamilton and, in Paragraph 6, he addresses the potential REMEDY for betrayal by elected federal Representatives.<\/p>\n<p>Hamilton wrote:<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;If the representatives of the people betray their constituents, there is then no resource left but in the exertion of that original right of self-defense which is paramount to all positive forms of government, . . The citizens must rush tumultuously to arms, without concert, without system, without resource; except in their courage and despair.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<p>So on the one hand, it **SEEMS** like Congressman Raskin\u00a0 and others in Congress are\u00a0planning\u00a0to betray the American people and that he\u00a0KNOWS\u00a0it will create\u00a0<strong>&#8220;CIVIL WAR CONDITIONS.<\/strong>&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, among our nation&#8217;s most-treasured Historical Documents, the Federalist Papers,\u00a0 the Founding Fathers told us what should be done if a Representative betrays their constituents.<\/p>\n<p>This **seems** to me to be a recipe for real trouble in the very near future.<\/p>\n<p>Let me say explicitly, that I personally have absolutely no intention AT ALL of starting any &#8220;civil war&#8221; or harming anyone.\u00a0 Having suffered a Myocardial Infarction heart attack on April 19, 2019, and then undergoing open heart surgery to get four by-passes of clogged heart arteries, I was not in such good shape after that.<\/p>\n<p>Seventeen months later, On October 23\/24, 2020, two of the four bypasses clogged with blood clots, causing me to go into Myocardial Infarction AGAIN! That second heart attack. . . . . . .\u00a0 was WAAAAAAAAAAY worse than the first.<\/p>\n<p>When it was all said and done, my Cardiologist told me I had &#8220;the heart function of a 90 year old man.&#8221;\u00a0 He told me it would get better, and it has, but I have never been the same since then.\u00a0 I am in no shape to go to war with anyone.\u00a0 \u00a0Heck, walking up my driveway to get the mail sends me huffing and puffing!\u00a0 War?\u00a0 Out of the question for me.<\/p>\n<p>For others, though, Civil War may not be out of the question.\u00a0 Which brings us to some factual information.<\/p>\n<p>From various sources, it is estimated that there are about 100 Million law-abiding gun owners in the United States, who, according to AMMO.com possess approximately 500 MILLION firearms. (Direct link to AMMO.com report\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/ammo.com\/articles\/how-many-gun-owners-in-america\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">HERE<\/a>)<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the armed forces of the United States consist of about two million active duty members.<\/p>\n<p>If only ten percent (10%) of those civilian American gun owners decided to confront the federal government, armed Americans would outnumber the\u00a0entire\u00a0Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, and Space force by five to one (5:1).<\/p>\n<p>Given the fact that about half of our armed forces are either stationed outside the country, or presently deployed to Europe over the Russia-Ukraine situation, and also deployed in the Middle East\u00a0 over the Israel-Iran situation, Armed Americans would outnumber any remaining troops by a far greater number.<\/p>\n<p>Moreover, many of those active-duty troops, would not fire upon their fellow citizens and many would likely side with their American Brothers if a Civil War erupted.<\/p>\n<p>So frankly, the federal government . . . . . .\u00a0<strong>wouldn&#8217;t stand a chance against the American public.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yet, Congressman Raskin arrogantly and brazenly said he feels there will be &#8220;Civil War conditions&#8221; here in the US.\u00a0 Maybe this is why the Biden regime allowed tens of thousands of military-age men from China and elsewhere, across our Southern Border illegally?\u00a0 Maybe they&#8217;ve been planning to use THOSE MEN against their fellow American citizens?<\/p>\n<p>No rational person wants a Civil War.\u00a0 I certainly don&#8217;t.<\/p>\n<p>But if Civil War is thrust upon the American people, it&#8217;s good to know that the American people outnumber (and out-gun) the federal government &#8211; considerably.<\/p>\n<p>Prepare yourselves, folks.\u00a0 It seems the Congress is planning what Congressman Raskin openly called &#8220;Civil War.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t want to see that, and I know none of my readers or radio listeners want it either.\u00a0 But from the sound of things in the video above, guys like Congressman Raskin seem to have exactly such plans, in January, 2025, just two short months from now.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/halturnerradioshow.com\/index.php\/news-selections\/national-news\/u-s-congressman-declare-trump-disqualified-then-need-body-guards-for-civil-war-conditions\">https:\/\/halturnerradioshow.com\/index.php\/news-selections\/national-news\/u-s-congressman-declare-trump-disqualified-then-need-body-guards-for-civil-war-conditions<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3861","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3861","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=3861"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3861\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=3861"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=3861"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=3861"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
