a retired colonel brought zip ties into the Capitol

with intent to capture the Speaker and perhaps the Vice President. There are dark forces at work on the alt right and I don't blame the background check one bit.

If there was even one little incident of insubordination during the inauguration, all of these reactionaries would be howling about Dem incompetence.

Pretty much everyone who respects the Constitution and ideals of this country has said there was no due process.
You know that's false. Are you just done caring about reality? When did this happen? We used to talk about actual facts involving things like poll watchers and court cases, and you were always careful to know your facts. You used to teach me a lot of things.
Now you just make #### up. It's like you've given up.

Let's try this again.

[ in reply to Re: There's no due process in impeachment. ] |

What you're arguing boils down to the 5th Amendment (no one shall be "deprived of life, liberty or property without due process of law") and reinforced in the 14th. And, of course, elements of that due process are outlined in the 6th and 7th.
This involves criminal trials only when the accused could go to prison. The 5th guarantees that the state shall not due the following without due process:
-Execute a citizen. -Put them in prison. -Take their property.
But in an impeachment trial, the president does not risk any of these:
-Execution -Prison -Losing his personal property
He only risks being removed from office.
Thus, the due process mapped out in the Constitution isn't applicable. This is simple legal stuff.

But a mob of a few thousand idiots overtook the Capitol. The "overkill" is just fine.
And if another mob shows up tomorrow to try another violent overthrow... then Over. Kill.

I read the whole article and it doesn't say anything about a President-elect Biden making those decisions.

You hate this place and you still come here?
You also hate a bunch of us and always threaten to put us on ignore, but then you don't.
You're an odd cat.

Threatening people, attacking their professions, telling them to go kill themselves...
Yep. You're good.
It's interesting you think that there's nothing wrong with those things. Just own up to em, admit you were wrong, and we'll move on.
