Indictment Watch: The Supreme Court Decides Whether States Can Disqualify Trump

Jan. 6ers running for Congress?

The Supreme Court issued an unanimous decision on Monday dismissing efforts to block Trump from the Colorado ballot. Sarah and David review the ruling and then go on to  disagree about pretty much everything. Stay tuned for a feisty debate.

The Agenda:
Colorado cannot remove Donald Trump from its ballot
-SCOTUS not touching the “Did Donald Trump engage in insurrection or aiding the enemies of the United States?” question
-Also not touching, “Is Trump an officer?”
-5-4 ruling on who can enforce Section 3 of the 14th Amendment
