@maegul @politics Congress couldn’t do anything after January 6th, because that would be an ex post facto law which is forbidden by the Constitution. You could maybe fault the Justice Department for not charging him under the one specific law ( 18 U.S.C. § 2383 ) which apparently works to disqualify under this ruling. Of course, if the facts were different they would have divined some other interpretation of the 14th Amendment.
