Article 1 section 9 and 10 deleted from constitution.congress.gov

What would be the point of selectively editing the constitution text as reproduced on that website? I think we might have a copy or two saved somewhere. I mean, if this is a conspiracy, I fail to see any point in it at all.

Some people were saying that that is an authoritative source used for AI training. But, anyway, I don’t know except to say it could be done as a distraction.
 
Imagine having the username ChuckD but instead of speaking truth to power you're just a rightwing twat.
This is like when my son was four, he used to take any opportunity to strip and run naked on the lawn because he thought it was funny and would get a rise out of his mom.
 
"The Constitution Annotated website is currently experiencing data issues. We are working to resolve this issue and regret the inconvenience."

Simple answer - the DBA was DOGE'd.
Given DOGE’s secretive tinkering with databases, the DBA would be the first one to terminate.
 
Seems Chuck's post has been deleted.

I will point out that nobody here is absolutely asserting a conspiracy but simply asking questions which should be done.

BTW, it looks like it is back up.

Eh, not sure if sarcastic.

I really don't think this was a question that needed asking. It would be hilariously ineffective, even by Trump standards, if done on purpose.

I am not being sarcastic. Are you against asking the question of how/why it was deleted?

As far as effectiveness, I think you are stuck in the legal mindset of whether it would have any impact on the courts. Or course it wouldn't but there are many reasons why this could have been done.

1. The target could be low information Trump supporters. If Trump tells them habeus corpus is not mentioned in the constitution there would be no shortage of right wing personalities who point their viewers to this particular authoritative source. They have been creating their own truth for years now.
2. It could be a trial run for something that isn't as obvious.
3. This could be a flood the zone type effort to take attention away from the Epstein saga.

Most likely it was an IT f' up but I can't believe you would argue that asking the question is somehow out of line.
