Republican Lawmaker Demands Joe Biden Be Removed From Office Via 25th Amendment, Despite Trump Being Allowed to Stick Around After Inciting an Actual Insurrection
A Republican congresswoman has demanded Attorney General Merrick Garland use the 25th Amendment to remove Joe Biden from office after Justice Department special counsel Robert Hur exonerated the president over his handling of classified documents but claimed he has a bad memory.
In a letter sent to Garland on Thursday, GOP representative Claudia Tenney said she had āgrave concernsā about the details of Hurās report, writing that the special counselās decision not to prosecute the president was āalarming.ā In the report, Hur explained that āno criminal charges are warrantedā because āthe evidence does not establish Mr. Bidenās guilt beyond a reasonable doubt,ā i.e., something the law requires. Hur also wrote that āMr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,ā a claim that Democrats have assailed as politically motivated. (Speaking to reporters on Friday, Senator John Fetterman said the report was āa smearā job full of ācheap shots and just taking things out of context, or even just inventing,ā adding āclearly there was an agenda there.ā)
Tenney wrote in her letter to Garland: āWe donāt prosecute or decline to prosecute people based on their personalities, or on the publicās anticipated perception of them. If Special Counsel finds that the evidence forms a reasonable basis to bring charges, he must do so.ā¦ President Biden needs to be charged, or he needs to be removed. There is no middle ground.ā She insisted that it was āincumbentā upon the attorney general to begin the process of removing Biden from office via the 25th Amendment, a section of which gives the vice president and a majority of Cabinet membersāor a majority of a body designated by Congressāthe power to do so in certain situations.
Itās worth noting that Tenney does not appear to have called for invoking the 25th Amendment back in 2021 after the president of the United States incited a violent riot that left multiple people dead. Which some might argue was a bigger deal!
Kamala Harris was not impressed with the special counselās report
Okay, but donāt a lot of people confuse their rape accuser with their ex-wife? No? They donāt?
