Chip Roy Introduces House Resolution to Remove Biden from Office via 25th Amendment
Vice President Kamala Harris would be pressured to bring together leaders of the executive cabinet to push President Biden out of office via the 25th Amendment, under a new resolution introduced by Representative Chip Roy (R., Texas) on Friday.
The resolution calls on Harris and members of the cabinet to “activate section 4 of the 25th Amendment to declare President Joseph R. Biden incapable of executing the duties of his office and to immediately exercise powers as Acting President.” The aforementioned section allows the vice president and a majority of the executive cabinet to decide whether the president is fit to serve.
Roy’s resolutions argues that Biden “has repeatedly and publicly demonstrated his inability to discharge the powers and duties of the Presidency, including, among others, the powers and duties of the Commander-in-Chief.”
Biden struggled to form coherent sentences and at times wore a confused expression on his face during the first presidential debate on Thursday evening, showing signs of his advanced age and sparking immediate panic among many Democratic pundits and voters.
A vote on the resolution could force Democrats to go on record about whether they still view Biden as fit to serve.
