25A All Of A Sudden Becomes Very Good Politics

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 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.

Should you get familiar with the 25th Amendment (we’ll call it 25A from here on in the interest of brevity) as much more than an academic foray into American civics? Perhaps not. But it’s going to become relevant, likely after the Fourth of July.

We Should Use 25A to Declare Biden Unfit. But Democrats Won’t.

That’s because Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) dropped a resolution on the floor of the House of Representatives on Friday calling upon Vice President Kamala Harris to convene the Biden administration cabinet for a vote to declare Biden unfit.

In this, Roy has the full support of House Speaker Mike Johnson:

Speaker Mike Johnson said Friday that President Joe Biden’s Cabinet should discuss invoking the 25th Amendment in the wake of a politically disastrous debate that compounded age and acuity questions.

Johnson, asked about calls from within his own conference for the amendment to be invoked, said that “there’s a lot of people asking about” it, but that it was up to members of Biden’s Cabinet.

“I would ask the Cabinet members to search their hearts. … And we hope that they will do their duty, as we all seek to do our duty to do best by the American people. These are fateful moments,” Johnson told reporters.

Pressed if he was saying he believed the 25th Amendment should be invoked, he added: “If I were in the Cabinet … I would be having that discussion with my colleagues at the Cabinet level. I would. … We’ll see what action they take. It’s a serious situation.”

Will the Biden cabinet depose their president? No.

They won’t do it over the Fourth of July holiday, they won’t do it next week, they won’t do it this month. They won’t do it. (READ MORE: Biden Voters Get the Red Pill)

You will not get anywhere asking Jennifer Granholm, Pete Buttigieg, Alejandro Mayorkas, Lloyd Austin, Antony Blinken, Xavier Becerra, and the rest of Biden’s collection of otherwise unwanted accomplices to depose the man who made them cabinet secretaries. In truth, these people have been central to maintaining the fraud of Biden’s mental competence for the last four years. For them to turn on Biden now is not going to be in their interests.

Especially when to do so would be to make Kamala Harris the acting president and, most likely, Biden’s successor as the Democrats’ presidential nominee. Nobody in the Democrat Party, save for its black female voters without which the Democrats can’t win elections, wants Harris atop the ticket. It might be horrifically dangerous to shut Harris out of the 2024 electoral equation, but virtually everyone in that party admits it’s even worse with her as the standard bearer.

Does anybody think this is sellable to the American public?

Kamala Harris: “Yeah girl, I’m out here in these streets… The majority of us believe in freedom and equality, but these extremists, as they say, they not like us.”

This is so bad….

So no, they’re not going to move a 25A process to get rid of Biden.

This is precisely why Johnson and Roy shouldn’t let this go.

25A should be all the House talks about between now and Labor Day. It should be holding hearing after hearing on Biden’s mental competence, every member of that cabinet ought to be dragged in front of House committees and grilled about Biden’s fitness, and vote after vote should be taken on resolution after resolution demanding that Biden be given the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, the standard test for dementia.

Make the 25A question the only one of any importance in Washington, D.C., from now until September.

Democrats Should Pay for the Grand Fraud They Subjected Us To

By establishing that backdrop, Johnson and the House can and should lean in, as heavily as possible, to the question of Attorney General Merrick Garland’s “inherent contempt” of Congress for having refused to provide the tapes of Biden’s deposition by special counsel Robert Hur. That’s the deposition after which Hur said Biden was essentially unfit to stand trial on charges of misuse of classified documents, and a transcript of it was released which many believe was sanitized for public consumption (even though it contained many damaging insights into Biden’s less-than-standard cognition). (READ MORE: Democrats Are Publicly Defecting)

Garland’s resistance to releasing the transcript is purely political — in light of Thursday’s debate debacle, it paints the attorney general as part of the cabal gaslighting the American people over Biden’s cognition. That debate performance strengthens the case for the House to send its sergeant-at-arms to fetch the Attorney General and stash him in the Capitol basement until he turns loose the Hur audio.

Let’s be blunt here: Garland and the rest of the Biden cabinet have to be held to account for their role in hiding the truth about Joe Biden from the American people.

Thanks to Biden’s clear mental decline, which he isn’t going to recover from and which his campaign co-chair, failed New Orleans mayor Mitch Landrieu, stupidly insists on continuing to aggressively showcase to the American people, the grand fraud they’ve subjected us to will make congressional action and oversight increasingly relevant and urgent. Maybe it’s political, but it’s also a pristine example of Congress fulfilling its function of oversight of the executive branch, something Congress has done a lousy job of for a very long time.

Perhaps the House ought to be subpoenaing all recordings and transcripts of Biden’s meetings with cabinet secretaries and others, and then subpoenaing all of those officials to testify at House hearings as to the information contained in those recordings.

Make them defend Joe Biden’s performance with specificity.

And if any of them are caught in lies, vote them in contempt of Congress. Perhaps even inherent contempt, complete with a trip to the Capitol basement. Let Jennifer Rubin lose what’s left of her mind over that. (READ MORE from Scott McKay: That Debate Might Be the End of the Road for … Barack Obama)

Let’s remember that Joe Biden isn’t the disease. He’s merely a symptom.

Biden is a puppet of a cabal, probably headed by Barack Obama, which has been vigorously attacking America as founded for at least the past 16 years. They go on about “Our Democracy,” but they’ve corrupted and destroyed practically every significant cultural, political, and even to an extent economic, institution they’ve touched.

Clearly, there has been a conspiracy within the Biden White House and administration to hide his cognitive condition from the American people.

So let’s smoke this conspiracy out. Let’s put the Biden cabinet on the grill and watch them cook. It’s the least they deserve after what they’ve put us through.
