I have been puzzling over the increasing brazenness with which various actors propose to flagrantly disregard the Constitution.
Article VI, section 3 of the Constitution states:
The oath actually taken specifies that the office holder swears to uphold and defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic.
In numerous cases, it is beyond any reasonable denial that those very people taking this oath have no intention of honoring it and in fact ARE the domestic enemies against whom the Constitution needs defended.
Why is this flagrant assault against the republic not prosecuted? What can be done about it?
Article VI, section 3 of the Constitution states:
3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.
