"SCOTUS Allows Trump on Colorado Ballot: Speaker Slams House Dems, Prompting Worries of Another Crisis"

TL;DR Summary
House Speaker Mike Johnson criticized Democrats for considering legislation to force Donald Trump off the 2024 ballot after the Supreme Court's decision to keep him on the Colorado ballot. The Court ruled unanimously that states don't have the authority to enforce Section 3 disqualifications, prompting Rep. Jamie Raskin to craft federal legislation to achieve this. Johnson's spokesperson urged Democrats to "get a grip," emphasizing that the American people, not the courts or Congress, decide the next president. The Supreme Court's decision was criticized by Justices Sotomayor, Kagan, and Jackson for overreaching and limiting potential federal enforcement.
