We write to address some spirited but misguided critiques Professor Kurt Lash has made in response to the amicus brief of Professor Amar and Professor Vikram Amar in Trump v. Anderson. Professor Lash notes that the House found no centrally organized group planning a plot to foil the Inauguration. According to Professor Lash, no one at the time said Section 3 was self-executing. With respect to Professor Lash, he has gotten all of these questions wrong, seriously so. [23] See, e.g., Pinkerton v. United States, 328 U.S. 640 (1946); Blumenthal v. United States, 332 U.S. 539 (1947).
