Am I right in assuming that if Biden dies(as President) and because Kamala Harris isn't eligible to be President is the House Speaker(MJ) next in line and therefore becomes the next President?

Since nobody raised an objection based on her eligibility on Jan. 6, when the Electoral College votes were accepted, she was ruled eligible. That is the way it works. Anyone who was doubted her eligibility needed to object at that time. I agree that the entire Jan. 6 process was sketchy at best, and while we might be able to revisit the procedural failures of Congress who did not legally consider the objections that were raised, even SCOTUS can't introduce new objections that were never a part of the record. The only option at this point would be impeachment and conviction based on saying she misrepresented her eligibility.
