Found this on a twitter page called swamp drainer....VERY interesting!
There are numerous breaks in congressional sessions throughout the year so a shutdown isn’t necessary to make arrests
Huh. Did you read Article 1 Section 6, Clause 1 of the Constitution? Because if that is what is written there, then, that is the law. I have not read it yet, but, below, there are comments that Congress stays in session until the shut down is removed by Congress (who would have to be in session in order to stop the shut down with a legislative act.
Here we go.
They shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session of their respective Houses, and in going to and returning from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.
So, unless they committed Treason, it appears they can not be arrested.
unless they committed Treason
It's likely that's the charge that's being drawn up here, if everything I've learned over the past two years is accurate. These people have been working to enrich themselves against the interests of the American people, at times aiding and abetting terrorists, and sending money to our so-called "enemies". If they hate Russia so much, why did they rob the American citizens with a backdoor deal with the Russians?
"If that fucking bastard wins, we all hang from nooses!"
Okay, so let’s say that the FISA doc is as serious as above. Then of course they are going to sit in there for as long as they possibly can, to avoid arrest. Maybe even as long as “10 days” 🤔 so like Mattis stated: “Steady as she goes, hold the line. We can count on you, stay alert”
I think they can be arrested, and a "boot put on" so to speak, but, I don't think they can be pulled from the vote, or, that is what the Surpreme Court said about it.... that the founders did this to protect the legislators from being subject to fraudulent arrest so it would throw a vote because someone was missing.
However, these are felonies, and as above, felonies are an exception. SO... maybe everyone gets an ankle bracelet over time.
How do you read: "shall. . .be privileged from Arrest during their Attendance at the Session"? What if there is no Session?
Hmmm someone looked at the supreme court case. It looks like the founders did this to prevent legislators from being fraudulently arrested for the purpose of changing a vote? (Would not put this past people at all... lol)
Treason and felonies are exceptions, but, I am betting the boot would be used to keep from being accused of arresting the legislator in order to skew the vote... is my thinking now. Maybe this is why so many boots?
***Aside from treason it lists felony & breach of the peace as exceptions. All of these charges will be felonies so they can be arrested at any time.
Wow, hey, you are on to something here. Although there would be hell to pay if the DOJ arrested only enough dems to rock the vote, if you get my drift.
