Luttig: If a president cannot be held accountable under the constitution for having to attempted to overturn an election that he lost fair and square, remain in power, and all the while preventing the peaceful transfer of power, then that is to cut the heart and soul out of... show more

Luttig's dropping truth bombs like a wisdom DJ at a democracy rave. His words are the constitution’s mixtape—laying down tracks about accountability and rule of law that even Founding Fathers would nod their wigs to. If you can’t call out a power move gone awry without slicing through democracy's dance floor, then what are we doing here? It's like a constitutional mic drop—only the mic is Lady Liberty's torch, and the stage is the steps of the Capitol. Now that's an encore I'd stay for.

I wish Judge Luttig were running the Supreme court instead of Roberts.

What beats me is that Gorsuch went on about a future hypothetical coup ... all while saying he wasn't interested in this case which is about Donald Trump staging a coup!!!!

@BallardBel97324 Trump wants a return to feudalism - see Project 2025 - the only way he can be President. Trump's megalamania isn't compatable with democracy and freedom.

The conclusion is fact.

Stephanopoulos: We have never had a former president who was impeached then indicted for trying to overturn an election. We've never had a former president who lies about the election that he lost. We've never had a former president or presidential candidate who refuses to pledge to accept the results of the next election if he lost. The peaceful transfer of power is the most fundamental tenet of our democracy. Refusing to accept it is un-American and unconstitutional

The Constitution is our country's most sacred document, laying out the foundations of our democracy: Rule of law, fair elections, and a peaceful transfer of power. It’s too important to set it aside for one man. Choose America over Trump.

Luttig: The Supreme Court cut the heart and soul out of America with this abominable decision… The defining maxim of America has been that no one is above the law. That can never be said about America again after this decision from the Supreme Court. Without any question whatsoever, the Supreme Court held that the President of the United States, and in particular, the former President of the United States Donald Trump, is above the law.

Fmr. GOP Sen. Jeff Flake: “I’m voting for Kamala Harris not in spite of being a Republican or a conservative, but because I’m a conservative. Conservatives first and foremost believe in the rule of law. And to have a former president who lost a free and fair election then attempted to overturn that election-How can any conservative support such a person?”

Ossoff: Let's be very clear about what the president is saying to the American people. The president is saying that he will not sign a bill whose purpose is to make housing affordable unless his allies in congress pass a voter suppression bill to rig the election. He is saying, I won't even sign a bill that will give economic relief to Americans unless the rules of this election are changed so that he, Donald Trump, cannot be held accountable for all of his misdeeds because that's what he really fears most of all is that when there is a change in the balance of power, and when we restore checks and balances, he knows that there will be subpoenas flying that officials from his administration will be testifying under oath about the full range of misconduct and corruption that we already know has been happening since the moment he was sworn in.

A belief that our military and law enforcement owe allegiance not to any president or political party, but to the people and our constitution. A belief in the peaceful transfer of power after the people have spoken in fair and free elections. They are American values we can all share, regardless of party. Values every president here today, as different as we are, has tried our best to uphold. Values that John McCain and Mitt Romney believed in no less than I did

Mullin: Keep in mind, the same time this was going on, Obama was saying that we need to have a peaceful transfer of power. This is the same group of people that was trying to lecture President Trump on a peaceful transfer of power while they were actually trying to go behind the American people and say even though you voted this way you got it wrong

ELON: WE MUST PUT AN END TO THE TYRANNY OF THE BUREAUCRACY “In order for us to be a true democracy, a functioning democracy, the government must be responsive to the people. That's literally what democracy means. However, when you have a vast unelected bureaucracy that is not answerable to the public, and if the elected officials, the President, the people in Congress and the Senate, if they don't have the power to affect the bureaucracy — and it's actually extremely difficult to affect the bureaucracy — then you do not have rule of the people. Then, you do not have democracy, but you have rule of the bureau — bureaucracy. And this is obviously wrong. It is unconstitutional, and it is imperative, therefore, that we return power to the people of the country and not have tyranny of the bureaucracy, which we most definitely have had to a degree that is absurd. It's not just that there's an unconstitutional fourth branch of the government, but it is arguably the most powerful branch of the government.” Source: DOGE update on 𝕏 Spaces, February 2025

For the first time in the history of America there was not a peaceful transfer of power because this arrogant SOB weaponized the DOJ, and intelligence agencies to go after the newly elected president and overturn the election. And he's gonna lecture us on bringing back norms!

Crow: "It's also so telling that when members of Congress simply remind service members of the Constitution and their duty to obey the law that he cannot handle that and he resorts to threats of violence and arrest and execution. That tells you everything you need to know about Donald Trump's respect for the constitution and the rule of law and actually underscores our point."
