These Enemies Of American Democracy Should Forever Be Held Up To Public Ridicule And Whatever Remedies Exists Under Law

So, is America going to pre­tend that a host of Republican Attorney’s Generals and mem­bers of Congress did not com­mit Sedition against the United States?
(Sedition is overt con­duct, such as speech and orga­ni­za­tion, tends toward rebel­lion against the estab­lished order. Sedition often includes sub­ver­sion of a con­sti­tu­tion and incite­ment of dis­con­tent toward, or rebel­lion against, estab­lished author­i­ty)[W].

It makes per­fect sense that a Texas Attorney General that is a sub­ject of crim­i­nal inves­ti­ga­tions and numer­ous oth­er claims of uneth­i­cal and ques­tion­able prac­tices would file a case to over­turn the will of the peo­ple in states he knew as an attor­ney he had no stand­ing to file.
It also makes sense that Texas Republican Attorney General Ken Paxon would pull that stunt know­ing that it would go nowhere, even in a Supreme Court with as much cred­i­bil­i­ty as a Catholic Priest.
To those pay­ing atten­tion, includ­ing the elites in the Media, the con­ver­sa­tion about Paxon’s act of arguable sedi­tion is gross­ly misunderstood.
Paxon knew that his fil­ing would end the way it did, come on, the guy is a lawyer; for cry­ing out loud, it is dif­fi­cult to believe that Baylor University gave him an under­grad­u­ate degree he did not earn or that the University of Virginia school of law col­lud­ed and gave him a law degree he did not earn.
I mean, there are sto­ries of peo­ple in high places who have paid oth­ers to do their SATs and that the degree they got from a so-called pres­ti­gious school of finance was bought and paid for.
Gives a whole new mean­ing to the term [pres­ti­gious]. On that note, we must give Ken Paxon the ben­e­fit of the doubt that he did earn his degrees and that he is actu­al­ly a lot smarter than his court fil­ing sug­gests. In fact, the guy may be as wily as a Fox.

WHAT ARE THEY IN IT FOR?
Why would they decide to com­mit a sedi­tious Act against the United States by throw­ing out the legal and law­ful results of a fair elec­tion to install an ego­ma­ni­a­cal, nar­cis­sis­tic wannabe- dictator?

Ken Paxon was not per­form­ing for the Supreme Court; he was per­form­ing for an audi­ence of one, as they say. Paxon want­ed to do some­thing abun­dant­ly clear to the White House occu­pant that he would do any­thing for him, includ­ing com­mit­ting Sedition. That would get the Pardoner-in-chief’s atten­tion. And get his atten­tion it did.. Paxon knows it was a stunt, but the White House’s over­ly ele­vat­ed occu­pant did not know it. He sees all of these actions as acts of feal­ty, sub­mis­sion to his Monarchistic desires, and his strong­man aspi­ra­tions. And so Ken Paxon decid­ed to go for a par­don, under the belief that the Feds are mak­ing out an action­able case against him, and why not?
It has worked for Michael Flynn, Joe Arpaio, Dinesh D’Souza, Bernard Kerik, Rod Blagojevich, Scooter J Libby, Roger Stone, and a long list crim­i­nals, includ­ing Arsonists Dwight Lincoln Hammond and Stephen Dwight Hammond, right-wing nuts who set fire to Government buildings.
Donald Trump is on his way out the door, and as his exit draws clos­er by the day, there is much spec­u­la­tion that there will be a wave of pres­i­den­tial par­dons to include a poten­tial­ly unprece­dent­ed self-par­don by Trump.
It is rea­son­able to expect that an Attorney General who has the stench of cor­rup­tion as a Dog just sprayed by a Skunk, would seek to get his face before the par­don­er-in-chief, but what is behind the oth­ers above who decid­ed to know­ing­ly join a suite that they know is a direct affront to the Constitution they swore to uphold.
What actions are there under the Constitution to hold these trea­so­nous actors account­able for the acts of treach­ery against the United States?

If the Nation decides not to take action against these ene­mies of Democracy, the next chief exec­u­tive that comes with the temer­i­ty and arro­gance of Donald Trump will eas­i­ly upend 240-plus years of the American exper­i­ment. Democracy as we know it may only be read about as a past way of life if our chil­dren and grand­chil­dren are even allowed to read about the truth.
In Texas, the local News10​.com tele­vi­sion opined quote: The last-gasp bid to sub­vert the Nov. 3 elec­tion results is demon­strat­ing Donald Trump’s endur­ing polit­i­cal pow­er even as his term is set to end. And even though most sig­na­to­ries are far-right con­ser­v­a­tives who come from deep-red dis­tricts, the fil­ing meant that rough­ly one-quar­ter of the U.S. House believes the Supreme Court should set aside elec­tion results.
“The Supreme Court is not going to over­turn the elec­tion in the Texas case, as the President has told them to do,” tweet­ed Rick Hasen, a law pro­fes­sor at the University of California, Irvine. “But we are in bad shape as a coun­try that 17 states could sup­port this shame­ful, anti-American fil­ing” by Texas and its attor­ney gen­er­al, Ken Paxton.
Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro has called Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court to over­turn elec­tion results in Shapiro’s state and three oth­ers (“a sedi­tious abuse of the judi­cial process”).

More than 120 Republican mem­bers of Congress have asked the supreme court to bar four states from cast­ing elec­toral votes for for­mer Vice President Joe Biden, even though every last one of them knew unequiv­o­cal­ly that the Biden/​Harris tick­et won the elec­tions fair and square and by the same mar­gin that Donald Trump claimed a land­slide a mere four years ago. Yet they asked the Supreme Court to over­turn the elec­tions and chose a dement­ed auto­crat instead, there­by destroy­ing over two hun­dred and forty years of Democratic rule in America.
This is the kind of activ­i­ty that gets politi­cians round­ed up and impris­oned in oth­er nations as they should be. It is incon­ceiv­able that any per­son who took an oath to uphold the Constitution would act against the same Constitution with such bla­tant treach­ery, and be allowed to retain their priv­i­leged posi­tions of pub­lic service.
Given enough lever­age, the Republican Party in its present state, will col­lec­tive­ly betray the Constitution with­out bat­ting an eye.
Every mem­ber of this trea­so­nous bunch must for­ev­er be held up to pub­lic ridicule, and be sub­ject­ed to what­ev­er oth­er reme­dies exist in law, for the sedi­tious acts against the American democracy.
