I think many here no it is just politics and nothing more, but I fear a few of you believe this has teeth. It does not. To even make it into law (which would be legal per 25th), it has to pass House, Senate and signed by President. Obviously Senate and President are road blocks. Even a flip of the Senate and Trump in office still is a roadblock as there is not a Veto proof majority in either house.

However by miracle it is pass, the Constitution still stands in the way. I will include the whole 25th, but pay attention to #4. Section 4 is where this whole clown moment lives.


Section 1.

In case of the removal of the President from office or of his death or resignation, the Vice President shall become President.
Section 2.

Whenever there is a vacancy in the office of the Vice President, the President shall nominate a Vice President who shall take office upon confirmation by a majority vote of both Houses of Congress.
Section 3.

Whenever the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that he is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, and until he transmits to them a written declaration to the contrary, such powers and duties shall be discharged by the Vice President as Acting President.
Section 4.

Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Thereafter, when the President transmits to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives his written declaration that no inability exists, he shall resume the powers and duties of his office unless the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive department or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit within four days to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. Thereupon Congress shall decide the issue, assembling within forty-eight hours for that purpose if not in session. If the Congress, within twenty-one days after receipt of the latter written declaration, or, if Congress is not in session, within twenty-one days after Congress is required to assemble, determines by two-thirds vote of both Houses that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall continue to discharge the same as Acting President; otherwise, the President shall resume the powers and duties of his office.


To summarize
-The longest the President can be removed is for 21 days
-Removal under 25th is harder than impeachment - 2/3 of both houses.

Nancy needs to just go out to pasture.

More "Got Him" optics for the stupid people that make up the democratic party.

It is sad that in 2020 with all the knowledge of the world on their phones, they fall for this.

She needs to be 5150'd... tell her it's in honor of Eddie Van Halen.

quote:

5150 refers to the California law code for the temporary, involuntary psychiatric commitment of individuals who present a danger to themselves or others due to signs of mental illness. It has been more generally applied to people who are considered threateningly unstable or “crazy.”

This is an attempt to pave the way to remove Biden if he wins.

Pelosi is a sharp politician and a dangerous opponent. Anyone who dismisses her as a literal “moron” deserves the screwing she will give them.

It is this "other body as Congress may by law provide" clause she is working. However, she said this is not about Trump because the voters will deal with him which some have thought to mean this is the Biden trap door if he wont leave due to health.

Harris is about as disinterested in campaigning for Joe Biden as she can get but she is going through the motions because she knows what is going to happen should they win the election.

Any chance this has to do with ACB

If Pence becomes President and the house refuses to confirm Penses VP appt, there is no VP to cast a deciding vote in the case of a tie in the senate for confirmation.

People seem to be missing an important fact.. yes, they could create the group Pelosi is proposing; however, the 25th amendment requires the Vice President and the majority of the cabinet or the majority of the group created by law to declare in writing that the President cannot fulfill his duties.

No matter what happens the 25th can't be invoked without the written notification by the Vice President.
