Letter: Mike Lee should be removed from office immediately

Oct 19, 2022

I’m extremely disappointed that Mike Lee is still running within a few points of Evan McMullen. Lee is a very dangerous threat to our democracy and needs to be removed, now.

Our Founding Fathers set up the US Constitution with a system of checks and balances, so that any two of our three branches of government could prevent a rogue third branch from destroying what our Fathers had set up. For two and half centuries this system has mostly worked. Just this month our Supreme Court squashed Trump’s attempt at skirting the law. Sadly, our representation in the legislative branch failed to do the same thing: Trump’s first impeachment; and his 2nd impeachment after Jan 6, where we all watched, in real time, Trump attempt to Overthrow Our Government!! Yet Mike Lee continues to be one of his most ardent supporters.

He had sworn a solemn oath to our US Constitution, but apparently we only saw his lips move; he has betrayed our Constitution, our very Democracy, and his true allegiance is to the Cult of Trump, not to our nation, nor Utah.

He is not qualified to be a US senator, and certainly not OUR senator. He is only qualified to be tried and convicted, next to DT, for sedition against the United States.
