5. I'm pretty sure that's not really a valid news source.

See if you can find the story in some place that we can recognize. Here's a clue. The only source for this story in Google News is that website. I'm pretty much positive it is Fake News.

See, a Senator wouldn't manipulate the content of the Constitution with a bill being introduced. The quote in the article does not even come close to representing the intent of the actual clause it pretends to quote.

Probably, this would be a good OP to self-delete. It's simply not true.
