Mike Lee is a traitor to the Constitution, should have been removed from office with the other J6ers, or shamed into resigning.

Funny how "isn't a suicide pact" never comes up in the context of random mass shootings.

I'm sure he wouldn't want to make the "Constitution isn't a suicide pact" arguement if we were talking about the second amendment now would he?

Didn’t this Senator take an oath to protect and uphold the US Constitution? And now, he’s throwing it under the bus?

I don't think this person has ever thought about what their argument enables

Ari they're already as erect as they can get are you trying to break them?

"The Constitution isn't a suicide pact!" -Patrick Henry 1775

Interesting definition of "national suicide".

He really wants to be Trump's next SCOTUS pick.

Yes, everyone knows only the children of illegal immigrants who commit mass genocide are the ones with birthright citizenship.

How, exactly, is our country in anyway even disadvantaged by coming up with a way to claim as many people as possible as Americans????

Can easily apply it to the Second amendment..

Im running out of options for these freaks that arent going to reeducation 5 days a week or just jail forever. We cannot coexist with monsters like this, nazis are too harmful and should not get consideration under the law.

gotta give credit where credit is due. The Constitution is neither a suicide pact nor does it compel us to encourage illegal immigration with universal birthright citizenship.

does anyone even listen to this guy???

If there’s something threatening in the Constitution, it’s great that the drafters included a handy process to change it.

And there is a process for amending the Constitution. Trump doesn't get to just executive order his ass on to everyone's face. Fuck you.

I agree with Mike Lee, because as Benjamin Franklin signed the Declaration of Independence he famously said: "If we do not hang together, we shall surely...have nothing to worry about because each of us, individually, can handle this shit no problem fr lmao.”

"Only make arguments that can't be abused by your enemies" practically means "don't make arguments at all."

Patently false: that’s exactly what it compels us to do. We are compelled to follow the Constitution, which specifies procedures for changing it. Don’t like something? Propose a change. While we consider your proposal, we’ll continue to follow the Constitution as it is written.

Over and over again we see the people who proclaim their love of the country and the Constitution the loudest actually hate the U.S. and the Constitution.

The only “suicide pact” in government I’ve seen is letting the fundamentalist “Rapture death cult” control the government.

Mike Lee is a shaved ape.

Oh, Baked Mike Lee.™

The "isn't a suicide pact" argument is exactly the kind of argument slavers would have made.

Go further. Impeach Mike Lee. It’s past time.

1) it's not a national suicide pact... it's the only thing, almost in tatters, holding this whole shit together. 2) it does compel us? it's the constitution.

Tragic that the framers didn’t include a mechanism to amend the Constitution. If they had Americans might have had the opportunity to turn itself into a death cult with a crazy fetish for universal unrestricted access to guns.

The Thomas More character in “A Man for all Seasons” said it well in his parable about cutting down the forest of the law to catch the Devil. “And when the last law was down, and the Devil turned 'round on you, where would you hide, Roper, the laws all being flat?”

It’s not a suicide pact because we can amend it.

Mike Lee: the new Founding Fathead

I don't think you'rr grasping the point

I really hope someone on that social experiment explains that.

“The Constitution isn’t a suicide pact” - Charlton Heston

My senator is SUCH a racist misogynistic buttlicker 🙄. May g-d strike him down before he ever gets close to the SCOTUS bench 🙏🏽

Yes, less metaphorical ones.

Not replacement theory, but “the Constitution is not a suicide pact” as an argument. (No good faith argument for replacement theory IMO.) For instance, the pardon power should not be interpreted to allow a president to preemptively immunize someone to assassinate members of Congress.

I think at the very least, you should have to give some evidence that a given direction, as dictated by the constitution, is *actually* suicidal before trying to rewrite it. On the topic of immigration they've never been able to do better factually than "but it might be less white here someday"

I will never use that phrase, because it's fucking terrible.

Chat, show me ‘consciousness of guilt’.

2nd amendment anyone?

Okay, now do guns.

ah, my mistake :(

Please tell me someone responded with a 2A example… please!

Constitution isn't a suicide pact. [Tosses Mike Lee in prison without trial.]

The Constitution isnt a suicide pact It doesnt compel us to allow weapons of war to be in the hands of civilians killing tens of thousands every year Hey this is fun Mike!

That’s the only correct answer

Or move to a country without it.

The 2A would like a word…

sounds like we have Mike Lee's blessing to scrap the 2nd amendment in an AOC administration

I mean a lot the ppl that wrote the constitution had, a decade earlier, pledged their “lives, fortunes, and sacred honor” so, yeah, kind of is a suicide pact, senator

Birthright citizenship case before SCOTUS. I predict at least a 7-2 rejection of Trump's position with Alito & Thomas dissenting www.nytimes.com/2026/04/01/u...

Looking forward to using this same argument on 2A from now on. You know, the amendment dealing with the things actually used for suicides.

Shall not be infringed?

Says the asshole who supports no restrictions to firearms. Calls the 14th the suicide pact and not the 2nd. What a horse's ass.

Shameless kissing up to a geriatric narcissistic fool and his know nothing supporters.

Not to mention that Mikey love him some unexamined premises

What would Rex Lee say?
