'Unacceptable' - News Gets Worse For Maine Secretary Of State After Removing Trump From Ballot

Hey ladies and gentlemen, this is Carmine Sabia for Explain America and the Democrat Secretary of State in Maine

Things are getting a lot worse for her since she removed Trump from the ballot, at least according to her

Now, Shanna Bellows is a staunch Democrat. She posted a ton of anti-Trump stuff

before she even became Secretary of State. She has been pictured with Joe Biden, with former President Obama

She is dyed-in-the-wool, hardcore left Democrat. No doubt about it. Trump hater

Absolutely. She claims she removed Trump from the ballot for constitutional reasons. You know, the

constitutional right to not vote for the candidate of your choice. So she says she's protecting democracy. She's protecting the Constitution, serving

the Constitution. I say, and this is my opinion, that this is a publicity stunt from somebody who wants to go further in the Democrat Party

And I would be stunned if you don't see her giving interviews on The View and other places

She's already given one on CNN. And on CNN, she said her life has gotten considerably worse since making the decision

because decisions have consequences. And I don't approve of what's happening to her, if what she's saying is true

Big if. If what she's saying is true. It could just be another play for publicity. I want you to watch what she says and judge for yourself

But before we do that, I want to ask you again to like, comment, share, and subscribe. Again

it does really help us out. It does really help our channel continue to grow

I'm Carmine Sabia for Explain America. We love you guys. God bless you. Take care, everybody. And now

let's watch that clip. That request was after the hearing. Yeah, I said it was before your decision was made, but I understand what you're saying, that they were required

according to Maine law, you're saying to do that before the hearing had even happened, which they did not do

They just did it in recent days. But the basis was your social media post, which you say had no bearing on your decision

But in the response to your decision, we have seen Trump world attacking you, coming out

sharing photos of you that you've taken with President Biden. Obviously, we do know you're a Democrat

That's not surprising. But you saw Trump himself sharing on social media ways to contact your office

the information to contact your office. I wonder, given the position that you're in and the decision that you've made, if you have concerns for your safety

since making this decision? I was prepared for the possibility of threats and I really appreciate

law enforcement and the people around me who've been incredibly supportive of my safety and security

My safety and security is important. So is the safety and security of

everyone who works with me. And we have received threatening communications. Those are unacceptable

But regardless, my considerations in this proceeding is to adhere to the process

We are a nation of laws. Main law required me to hold a hearing and issue a decision

And now it goes to the Superior Court and I will uphold the ruling of the courts

That is the process that we are due. And again, looking at the evidence and the events of January 6th

it was an insurrection because people attacked not only the Capitol, but also that process of the peaceful transfer of power

It's notable to hear you say that you have gotten threats because of this decision. I mean, how concerning have those threats been to you

Those threatening communications are truly unacceptable. And I certainly worry about the safety of people that I love, people around me, and people who are charged with protecting me and working alongside me

That being said, we are a nation of laws and that's what's really important

And so I've been laser focused on that obligation to protect people

We are a nation of laws and that's what's really important. And so I've been laser focused on that obligation

to uphold the Constitution. Main Secretary of State Shinabella's obviously no one should get threats like that for
