Democrats tried to make DC a new US state, fails constitutionally

[Scott Downey]

The Constitution says no to DC statehood

but that did not stop the House from passing the bill in June.
The constitution did not stop them before from passing that bill, so what's to stop them again now they have all the power in DC, except for the SCOTUS.

stuff like this, them passing bills that are against the constitution is why they should not be trusted.
And then 3 electoral votes given to a small minority of voters, it is absurd, yet the democrats would eagerly see it done, regardless of how the rest of people feel about it.

The country is lost.

Oh it is, it's over and for some reason it really irks me that Ben Franklin is being proven right. He thought the country would last 250 years, give or take a few.

Biden and his election fraud didn't kill it alone, there has been a big disregard for the US Constitution for some time and as result. there is a wide disrespect for the rule of law, since it does not apply equally or fairly at all. The fourth estate was supposed to be a check but they are now responsible for many of the incurable problems. Americans and their "leaders" have no problem with blatant election fraud and will believe everything the media tells them to over their own lying eyes.

Felt sorry for that nitwit Kelly until she said she couldn't vote for Trump because of what his "supporters" supposedly did yesterday - now that's a spineless coward. What's left of the GOP post-Trump is full of these types, but the left is going to have to be satisficed with demonizing them now, all that hate needs an outlet.

An idiocracy/kleptocracy, if you can keep it.

Yes, the idea that Trump is somehow responsible for what happened yesterday is despicable. The ones responsible are the ones who plotted and succeeded in stealing the election. They are the ones that brought the country to the brink of war.

Interesting that the same persons who loved how BLM and others keep looting and rioting was a display of democracy and a good thing, but totally different tune on yesterday!

Started when wwe kicked God out of the public square, and then when we OK Infanticide, and then legalized Sodomy!

This is while Trump is still president, so irrelevant. Manchin promised to side against such nonsense. We'll see.

Mayor Bowser Calls on New Congress To Move Forward with DC Statehood in First 100 Days

DC mayor is demanding statehood legislation in the first 100 days.
So there it is for you.
This would need a constitutional amendment and give greater federal election power to democrats.
2 senators,. more house reps, and 3 electoral votes for POTUS , for such a tiny area of the country.

2/3 have to vote in favor of it.
course with elections being fake news, wont be hard to do now.
Constitutional Amendment Process

The country is lost.

that is what was said when Clinton and Obama were elected.... granted farther to the left - but .....

Actually two states have less population than DC

OK, then the country is even more lost. Never say it couldn't be worse.

The article mentions they want to shrink the area for DC and make the rest a state, which would keep the 3 electoral votes for DC, plus make a new state with 3 more electoral votes.

So House Democrats have come up with a creative constitutional workaround. H.R. 51, the bill to be voted on next Friday, purports to shrink the District of Columbia to just the few blocks along the National Mall containing the various federal government buildings, such as the White House, the Capitol, the Supreme Court, plus the “principal federal monuments.” The rest of the city would be rechristened “Washington, Douglass Commonwealth,” and admitted as the 51st state.​

In that case - just give the land back to VA and or MD.

Some people in Oregon and California want to split up their states, let's make at least 2 more red states. California could get split into 3 new states. Wall up democrats in the regions and free up the republicans in their regions to have more fair representation, same with Oregon and Washington.

And NY wants to split into 3 states - Long Island, NY City, Upstate

This is significantly different than either Clinton or Obama don't you think? Let's be honest, what happened at the Capitol is only the start. I fear that civil war is on the way.

 

[just-want-peace]

"First we take GA, then we change America" Nuff said!!!!

How can you co-operate with those who want to demolish your world??????????

Can you find "UNITY" with those who have vowed to destroy you?

I fear that this nation will either buckle under OR there will be strong resistance in multiple forms against this "illegitimate takeover" - results yet to be determined!!

Then again, HE can intervene and create a miracle solution that is of now not even in anyone's mind.

Some on the left including in the media are talking about cleansing the US of Trump supporters now.

ABC News Editor Demands ‘CLEANSING’ of Trump Supporters in America

You bet the democrats want all Trump supporters to no longer be Trump supporters, they want all Trump support eradicated from America. They dont want any republicans left either, but that is a secondary goal. They want one party rule, just like the Chinese communists have. Why else do they love china communists so much, that type of rule is their dream. Trump's hardline against China's government really got them angry.

 

[Scott Downey]

Never forget that the elite democrat leaders are all globalists, not patriots, not nationalists.
Trump tapped into that feeling among many americans, America first, America as good and not evil as the socialist democrats say.
Cuomo one said about the phrase Make America Great Again, that America was never that great.

As the socialists gain power, expect their attacks on America to increase to make Americans feel like their country is bad and only they can fix it.
