Sen. Mike Lee,
Holding hearings on a nominated candidate is premature. Your hearing is premature because the Constitution stands in the way of an oath-breaking insurrectionist being sworn into office.
Amendment 14, Article 3 clearly states: any person that swore an oath to support the Constitution and then commits rebellion/insurrection against the same (the Constitution) is forbidden to hold office — unless/until Congress has voted and removed the stated disability.
While the amendment offers no trigger defining a finding of rebellion/insurrection, clearly, the majority vote of both houses of Congress, two courts and a congressional report far exceed this amendment’s requirement. Amendment 14 constitutionally requires a vote from both bodies of Congress to remove this stated disability.
Failure to implement this requirement is an oath-breaking act of rebellion/insurrection against the Constitution; committed by all oath-takers who proceed to swear an oath-breaker into office.
All should be warned — prior to accruing their own Article 3 disability. Dissenting arguments rail against their “own” God-sworn oath to support the Constitution, and the Constitution itself.
Sen. Lee, “we the people” appreciate your scholarship and support, protecting our founding document — the Constitution.
K. Ellis Davis, South Jordan
