Yes it is true. States cannot recall a member of Congress. The US House or US Senate could expell a member with a 2/3 vote, but a state can do nothing other than vote out of office in the next election.

Oh, believe me, I understand the reasoning here. However:

Amendment X

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

We can start and win this fight. We definitely lose if we buckle under the pressure of cucks that claim "precedent" over the gift we were given of plain English.

We need willpower and action. This is a great cuck filter, and I would expect them to arise in defense of their decrepit corrupt neocon in droves. It is up to the people to understand our defense mechanisms and move.

Legislate it, pursue it, and let SCOTUS intervene. Or sit back and relax as Biden touches you.

The amendment you cite doesn't provide for this. You'd have to make a change to the constitution. One state couldn't do it.

There's a reason in over two centuries no state has ever implemented a recall for congressional reps.

Yes it does. It says so, right there. And it is enough of a mechanism to move against Cheney. As I also stated, it is a great way to pull the cucks out of the woodwork. They will make arguments against our own Constitution out of habit. It is what they do.

In a time of democratic lawlessness we can enforce a rigid Original Intent.

No, it doesn't. Look I can't stand liz Cheney - even before this I knew she was shit. But while it feels good to think about it, a state can't do a federal recall. By all means go for it, but it'll immediately be squashed in the courts.

They just need to put so much pressure on her that she resigns.

Her masters do not care about political pressure. They will fire up their media machine and just say it's not happening. You cannot ignore recall legislation that requires 100,000 signatures, signed and sent. They can litigate against it, which they will, citing precedent -- if the Wyoming legislature was serious (and any of them) then they would move this route. They would also issue condemnation via censure immediately.

Will they do any of this or will they try and slink away with a letter? If they do, who is letting them get away with it?

They just need to put so much pressure on her that she resigns on her own.

Start looking for a MAGA replacement that has great qualifications and excellent persona! You've got 2 years.

Yes this is the only route, though they'll probably need to commit by about one year from now or sooner.

No state can recall a member of Congress.
