Observations On The NeverTrump Section 3 Big Lie Push
DECEMBER 29, 2023 / JACK MARSHALL


Maine joined Colorado in barring from its GOP primary ballot yesterday,
as Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) decided that she “had no
choice.” She had no choice because she is a rapid partisan Leftist who,
like many Democratic operatives in various positions of power within the
legal establishment, she is determined that President Biden be rescued
from his election peril by any means necessary. Trump’s actions before
and during the January 6, 2021, riot in the U.S. Capitol do not justify
charging him with inciting a riot, much less an “insurrection” that
would trigger Section 3 of the 14th Amendment. Maine’s completely
partisan and anti-democratic move is sure to be appealed along with
Colorado Supreme Court’s finding last week that Trump could not appear
on the ballot in that state under the 14th Amendment provision designed
to keep members of the Confederacy that prevents insurrectionists from
holding office. The U.S. Supreme Court will review the case, one hopes
quickly, and had better resolve the issue of whether Trump can run again
or if the nation will be thrown into Constitutional chaos by allowing
some states to block him.


SCOTUS could, if John Roberts is overcome with one of his weenie
attacks, decide the case narrowly without getting to the merits of the
NeverTrump 14th Amendment Big Lie. Because it is a Big Lie, one of many
that the Left has tried to use to bring down Trump before, while he was
President and ever since, that it has reached this stage is horrifying,
and I say that as someone who profoundly hopes for some legal and fair
way to take Trump out of the 2024 election. This isn’t it. Like the two
impeachments and the unethical Nancy Pelosi-Liz Cheney January 6 Star
Chamber in the House, the Maine and Colorado actions are far more
serious attacks on the nation’s democacy than the stupid, futile,
January 6 rioting.

Jonathan Turley outlined as clearly as anyone has why the Section 3
application to Trump is untenable and dangerous. There are two main
reasons. The first is that the 14th Amendment, like the Emoluments
Clause that the Axis [the “resistance,” Democrats and the media] dredged
out of the dead letter pond in one of its potential impeachment
theories, is a narrow and archaic provision that has never been used
except in the specific instances it was designed for: when former
members of the Confederacy wanted to run for office after the Civil War.
The second is that there was no insurrection in 2021, and so Trump
cannot be labeled an insurrectionist.

The apparently officially-sanctioned Democratic Party talking point is
that since Section 3 of the 14th requires no official finding that an
individual is an insurrectionist, there is no Due Process breach to
disqualify Trump without any trial on the question. In other words, the
Axis thinks that its simply calling the Capitol riot an insurrection
repeatedly makes it an insurrection. That’s a Big Lie purveyor’s dream:
repeat it enough, and it’s true. When he 14th Amendment was passed,
there was no crime of “insurrection,” and no definition of it in the
Constitution. There didn’t need to be, because a civil war is by
definition an insurrection, and that’s what Section 3 was about: the
Civil War just completed. Congress made rebellion and/or insurrection a
federal crime with 18 USC 2383 in 1948, so now there is something other
than the Civil War to use to trigger Section 3. Trump, however, hasn’t
been charged with violating 18 USC 2383, because he didn’t, and no
prosecutor, even Jack Smith, Trump’s own personal Javert, is foolish
enough to charge him. (I would view doing so as an ethics violation
justifying bar sanctions.) The Democrats who desperately want to stop
American from having the chance to vote for Trump have decided he is an
insurrectionist because they have been saying so for three years. That’s
it. That’s their case.

If the Colorado and Maine ruling stands, it will create a situation in
which any politician who is sufficiently unpopular and controversial
could be banned from the ballots of states with an unethical and
partisan Supreme Court. As others have noted, the concerted efforts to
use extralegal means to undermine Trump’s Presidency was far closer to
an insurrection than the actions of the drunken mob on January 6, 2021.

It profoundly depressed me to read Scalia Law School’s Ilya Somin‘s
support for the bogus insurrection theory. He’s a constitutional
scholar, but now heads my Bias Makes You Stupid victims list. Somin’s
argument is tortured at best, and he never makes a convincing case that
the Capitol riot qualifies as an insurrection. A Harvard study found
that most of the January 6 rioters were not trying to overthrow the
government, but to express their anger and disapproval over what they
felt was an unfair election and to support President Trump, whom they
believed was the victim of it.

Of course, that’s a study from an institution that is itself lacking in
integrity and trustworthiness…

Once the dangerous Section 3 conspiracy is derailed for good by the
Supreme Court (and in stating it this way I am channeling the Hickory
high school basketball coach played by Gene Hackman in “Hoosiers,” when
he tells a shaky sub at a crucial point in a must-win game, “After Ollie
makes his free throw—and you WILL make your second free throw—“), the
American public is likely to be faced with a terrible choice: vote for a
vengeance-obsessed man who has proven himself untrustworthy and unstable
as a crucial symbolic vote against the Democratic Party that has
demonstrated hostility to the Constitution and the rule of law, or vote
for a mentally-collapsing President whose first term has been a disaster
across the board and his political party that is now hostile to both the
Constitution and core American values.

It’s a crummy choice, but voters have a right to make it, and only one
party is trying to take the right away. I think that by itself makes the
responsible choice clear.

You are a Nazi.

As a Nazi, you are, above all else, a craven coward.

You are afraid to compete with others as equals because you know you
can not measure up.

You are afraid of your own inadequacy, so you want to murder your
betters.

You are afraid of the truth, so you want to murder those who would
tell it.

You are afraid of history, so you want to murder the past, to wipe
out the knowledge of the degeneracy, cowardice and failure of National
Socialism.

Finally, you are afraid of the power of educated, informed adults.
Freedom of choice terrifies you… which is why you choose minor children
as sexual partners. You can not interact with competent adults in a
consensually sexual way. You need to be able to impose yourself on a
helpless victim, be it a prepubescent boy, or a patient in a mental
hospital.

That is what you are, a Nazi, and there is nothing polite or honest
about it.

You are a nithing- homo sapiens by birth, subhuman BY CHOICE. The
key word is CHOICE. You were born with the same human nature as the
rest of us. Your CHOICES made you a nithing.

Bill explains what nithings are.

http://www.israpundit.com/2008/?p=9446

Define and Dehumanize the Enemy: Jihadists as Nithings or Nidings

by Bill Levinson
It is an ancient principle of magic (which modern people recognize as
stories that reflect a society’s culture and psychology) that
knowledge of a person’s real or True Name delivers power over that
person. What it really means is that, if you know the person’s
psychology, you can gain an advantage over him. It is also well known
that the side that controls the language of an argument controls the
argument. As an example, Hamas terrorists and their enablers refer to
Israel’s military as an “occupation force” and terrorisitic violence
against civilians as “resistance.”

We have long sought a single word that strips the enemy of all
humanity, and reduces him to something less than an animal that is
worthy of nothing less than extermination. As far as we know, the
English language contains no such word, although “dreck” (garbage or
refuse) comes close. “Homo sapiens by BIRTH, subhuman by CHOICE”
describes Islamic supremacists perfectly, but it is a phrase and not a
word. We now propose to refer to Islamic supremacists as nithings or
nidings: a Scandinavian word that strips its object of all humanity.
Webster’s dictionary (1913) defines it as “A coward; a dastard; — a
term of utmost opprobrium.”

We remind readers who object to the dehumanization of Islamic
supremacists that those enemies are already attempting to dehumanize
Jews, and to a lesser degree Christians, with images that could have
come directly from Adolf Hitler. As they have chosen to sow the
dragon’s teeth, our position is that they must now reap their rightful
harvest: the complete hatred and loathing of all civilized human
beings.
nithings

Nithing or niding was more than a common insult, because Scandinavian
culture required its subject to fight a duel with the accuser or
become an outlaw: totally devoid of rights, honor, and even
recognition as a human being. Per the Wikipedia entry,

The actual meaning of the adjective argr or ragr [= Anglo-Saxon
earg] was the nature or appearance of effeminacy, especially by
obscene acts. Argr was the worst, most derogatory swearword of all
known to the Norse language. According to Icelandic law, the accused
was expected to kill the accuser at once. …If the accused did not
retort by violent attack yielding either the accuser to take his words
back or the accuser’s death, he was hence proven to be a weak and
cowardly nithing by not retorting accordingly.

A nithing was devoid of all human rights, and he was considered the
enemy of civilized humanity: a perfect depiction of Islamic
supremacists. The word therefore strips the enemy of all humanity, and
degrades him to the status of a wolf or strangler (per Scandinavian
tradition) or a virulent disease like the Black Plague. Black Plague
is a deadly and contagious disease whose vector consists of plague-
carrying rats, while the Green Plague of militant “Islam” is a deadly
and contagious ideology that is spread by bipedal rats: nidings or
nithings, non-humans that raise violent hands to all of civilized
Humanity.

The immediate consequence of being proven a nithing was
outlawing. The outlawed did not have any rights, he was exlex (Latin
for “outside of the legal system”), in Anglo-Saxon utlah, Middle Low
German uutlagh, Old Norse utlagr. Just as feud yielded enmity among
kinships, outlawry yielded enmity of all humanity.[63] …”Yet that is
but one aspect of outlawry. The outlaw is not only expelled from the
kinship, he is also regarded henceforth as an enemy to mankind.”

The actual definition of a nithing is somewhat more involved and
complex, and it gets into sexual perversions and zoomorphical
transformations (Loki’s transformation of himself into a mare to have
sexual intercourse with a stallion, and thus beget Odin’s horse
Sleipner is probably an example), but the following line is pertinent:
“The nithing used its malicious seid magic to destroy anything owned
and made by man, ultimately the human race and Midgard itself[6], due
to its basically unlimited envy, hate, and malice that were nith.”

"Destruction of everything owned and made by Man” (the Palestinians’
destruction of the greenhouses in Gaza comes to mind immediately) and
“unlimited envy, hate, and malice” describe militant “Islam”
perfectly, and further underscore the application of nithing or niding
to describe it. The propensity for mindless destruction also appears
in Orson Scott Card’s Alvin Maker series, in which a supernatural
enemy is known as the Unmaker: a personification of evil that is the
total antithesis of God the Creator.

The Unmaker is the main antagonist in Orson Scott Card’s
alternate history/fantasy series The Tales of Alvin Maker. Never
directly confronted, it is a supernatural force that breaks apart
matter and aims to destroy and consume everything and everyone. …To
make something is to oppose the Unmaker, but a point often made is
that this is futile. By natural law the Unmaker can tear down faster
than any man can build.

This also is an outstanding definition of militant “Islam” or Islamic
supremacy: an ideology that seeks to destroy everything into which it
comes in contact, and with which no reason, negotiation, or compromise
is possible.

In summary, a nithing or niding is the enemy of Civilization, a
subhuman (through its behavioral choices, and emphatically NOT due to
its racial or ethnic origin) monster with total hatred and malice
toward all human industry and arts, and worthy of nothing but
extermination like any virulent disease. This is the word we will now
apply to Islamic supremacists and their enablers, and we encourage
others to do likewise.

The following article explains your pathology.

History's oldest hatred
By Jeff Jacoby
Globe Columnist / March 11, 2009
Email|Print|Single Page||Text size – +

ANTI-SEMITISM is an ancient derangement, the oldest of hatreds, so
it is strange that it lacks a more meaningful name. The misnomer
"anti-Semitism" - a term coined in 1879 by the German agitator Wilhelm
Marr, who wanted a scientific-sounding euphemism for Judenhass, or
Jew-hatred - is particularly inane, since hostility to Jews has never
had anything to do with Semites or being Semitic.

Perhaps there is no good name for a virus as mutable as anti-Semitism.
"The Jews have been objects of hatred in pagan, religious, and secular
societies," write Joseph Telushkin and Dennis Prager in "Why the Jews?,"
their classic study of anti-Semitism. "Fascists have accused them of
being Communists, and Communists have branded them capitalists. Jews who
live in non-Jewish societies have been accused of having dual loyalties,
while Jews who live in the Jewish state have been condemned as
'racists.' Poor Jews are bullied, and rich Jews are resented. Jews have
been branded as both rootless cosmopolitans and ethnic chauvinists. Jews
who assimilate have been called a 'fifth column,' while those who stay
together spark hatred for remaining separate."

There was Jew-hatred before there was Christianity or Islam, before
Nazism or Communism, before Zionism or the Middle East conflict. This
week Jews celebrate the festival of Purim, gathering in synagogues to
read the biblical book of Esther. Set in ancient Persia, it tells of
Haman, a powerful royal adviser who is insulted when the Jewish sage
Mordechai refuses to bow down to him. Haman resolves to wipe out the
empire's Jews and makes the case for genocide in an appeal to the king:

"There is a certain people scattered and dispersed among . . . all the
provinces of your kingdom, and their laws are different from those of
other peoples, and the king's laws they do not keep, so it is of no
benefit for the king to tolerate them. If it please the king, let it be
written that they be destroyed."

When the king agrees, Haman makes plans "to annihilate, to kill and
destroy all the Jews, the young and the elderly, children and women, in
one day . . . and to take their property for plunder."

What drives such bloodlust? Haman's indictment accuses the Jews of
lacking national loyalty, of insinuating themselves throughout the
empire, of flouting the king's law. But the Jews of Persia had done
nothing to justify Haman's murderous anti-Semitism - just as Jews in
later ages did nothing that justified their persecution under the Church
or Islam, or their repression at the hands of Russian czars and Soviet
commissars, or their slaughter by Nazi Germany. When the president of
Iran today calls for the extirpation of the Jewish state, when firebombs
are hurled at synagogues in London and Paris and Chicago, it is not
because Jews deserve to be victimized.

Many Jews are no saints, but the paranoid frenzy that is anti-Semitism
is not explained by what Jews do, but by what they are. They are the
object of anti-Semitism, not its cause. That is why the haters'
rationales can be so wildly inconsistent and their agendas so
contradictory. What do those who vilify Jews as greedy bankers have in
common with those who revile them as fiendish Bolsheviks? Nothing, save
an irrational obsession with Jews.

At one point, Haman lets the mask slip. He boasts to his friends and
family of "the glory of his riches, and the great number of his sons,
and everything in which the king had promoted him and elevated him."
Still, he seethes with rage and frustration: "Yet all this is worthless
to me so long as I see Mordechai the Jew sitting at the king's gate."
That is the unforgivable offense: "Mordechai the Jew" refuses to blend
in, to be just like everyone else. He goes on sitting there -
undigested, unassimilated, and therefore unbearable.

Of course Haman had his ostensible reasons for targeting Jews. So did
Hitler and Arafat, so does Ahmadinejad. Sometimes the anti-Semite
focuses on the Jew's religion, sometimes on his laws and lifestyle,
sometimes on his professional achievements. Under it all, however, it is
the Jew's Jewishness that the anti-Semite cannot abide.

With all their flaws and failings, the Jewish people endure, their role
in history not yet finished. So the world's oldest hatred endures too,
as obsessive and indestructible - and deadly - as ever.
