These are difficult times for our nation with continuing disasters, a lethal pandemic, and political unrest including an actual insurrection on Jan 6th of this year.
And our US Constitution has been repeatedly questioned as to efficacy in our modern world.
But read the document, and preceding president should have been removed for what US Constitution calls: high crimes and misdemeanors.
The US Senate simply refused.
From very clear instructions, members of US Congress complicit with insurrection should have been removed from office.
Go back further, and under guidelines of US Constitution, the Speaker of the House had a duty to investigate fraudulent claims that lead to second Gulf war.
Over and over again, we have politicians who just ignored and did not do what US Constitution required them to do.
We, the People, have watched them in a political system gamed to make it difficult to remove politicians who know can flout our rules as a nation without fear of punishment or removal from office.
Notice how our nation has been saved though as only the federal judiciary of the three major branches has held the line.
Our federal courts protected our nation relentlessly, and continue to do so, as blocked repeated attempts by politicians to ignore or break our laws.
Note, the US Supreme Court refused to support the previous president attempting to dispute election results.
When followed, our US Constitution has saved our nation.
What to do though about politicians who figured out how to ignore it, and are still in power?
That my fellow Americans, is up to us.
