Congressman Jim Banks is speaking up about an attempt to ban him from office.
Thursday, Banks responded to what he called a “frivolous filing from his Democrat opponent Aaron Calkins.” The filing aim to prevent him from running in Indiana’s 3rd Congressional District election this year.
The filing states Banks “supported an insurrection” and violated the 14th Amendment, presumably because he voted to object to the certification of two states in the 2020 Presidential contest. Banks said he is “running for re-election to fight against Joe Biden’s dangerous agenda and champion Hoosier values.”
He called the filing “a joke allegation.”

Oh my gosh! Did this braniac Calkins have an issue with the 2016 election when:
Jim McGovern (D-Mass.) objected to Alabama’s votes.
Jamie Raskin (D-Md.) objected to Florida’s votes.
Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.) objected to Georgia’s votes.
Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.) objected to North Carolina’s votes.
Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) objected to the votes from North Carolina in addition to votes from South Carolina and Wisconsin. She also stood up and objected citing “massive voter suppression” after Mississippi’s votes were announced.
Barbara Lee (D-Calif.) brought up allegations of Russian interference in the election and malfunctioning voting machines when she objected following the announcement of Michigan’s votes.
Maxine Waters (D-Calif) rose and said, “I do not wish to debate. I wish to ask ‘Is there one United States senator who will join me in this letter of objection?'” after the announcement of Wyoming’s votes.
Goose, meet gander. If you cn’t win on the issues, try to cheat.
What a moron.
