The former Central Intelligence Agency director John Brennan has added his name to growing calls for the president to be ousted on grounds that he is unfit for the job,
arguing that the US constitution’s 25th amendment addressing involuntary removal from office was
“written with Donald Trump in mind”.

Brennan, who served as head of the spy agency during Barack Obama’s presidency, told MS Now on Saturday that
Trump’s recent volatile remarks about destroying Iranian civilization
and the danger he posed to so many lives
merited his removal from the Oval Office.

“This person is clearly unhinged,”
he said.
“I think the 25th amendment was written with Donald Trump in mind.”

Brennan added that Trump was too much of a liability to be allowed to continue to be commander-in-chief, with immense firepower at his disposal, including the US nuclear arsenal.

@jade_smith @VeroniqueB99 Your comment is triggering. FFS those were 3000 people, just a US war Tuesday. People who get triggered by towers live with golden spoons unaware of the amount of corpses that litter their daily life. Get a grip man.

@VeroniqueB99 Nope it right on point. Now we have to stop the plane Vance miller and vought are on that are heading straight for American Decency
This will be the plane we divert and crash into a field
I guess kegsbreath is hitting the pentagon 🙄

Anyway, this is definitely not alarmist (I thought this 6 years ago) and I sure as heck not giving up, I will continue to fight back and rebuild what they demolish (or try to demolish ) 😾✊🗽

@VeroniqueB99

we all look at this differently now, too..

What you may not know is that this was drawn 6 years go today by Marc Murphy. It was rejected and called unfair and alarmist.

"I think Trump's real problem is actually, so to speak, with God. I think that's the real jealousy. I think this is the issue because Pope Leo shouldn't believe in God. Pope Leo should believe in Trump. I think that's the fundamental issue."

"Donald Trump needs to be removed from office. You know it, I know it, and tens of millions of people who aren’t reading this piece know it.

Well, somehow 99 percent of the mainstream media in America don’t know it, are too damn scared to say it, or have absolutely zero understanding of their jobs as journalists and their duty to warn the people they serve of the extreme danger we are facing right now."

SHOULD TRUMP BE REMOVED FROM OFFICE?

Well, is the Pope Catholic?

Enough Already

@wdlindsy

As time passes and Hungary begins its renewal, I hope Magyar makes public all of Orban's corruption & collusion.

It'll help identify areas to investigate for Trump's regime when it falls, especially follow the money Investigations.

1. No Merrick Garland "patience"
2. No Mueller "ignore the money" overly narrow focus
3. No Bill Barr "re-interpretations"
4. No "favored few" leaks to Fox News
5. No Republican budget bottlenecks or chokepoints on investigation funding obstruction

A national majority vote for president is one step closer to reality after the Virginia governor, Abigail Spanberger, signed the national popular vote bill into law,
joining an interstate compact with 17 other states and the District of Columbia.

Under the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, states would assign their presidential electors to the winner of the popular vote, regardless of the results within the state.
The compact takes effect when states representing a majority of electoral votes
– 270 of 538
– pass the legislation and thus would determine the winner of the presidential contest.
With Virginia, the compact now has 222 electors.

Every state that has so far enacted the compact has Democratic electoral majorities, including California, New York and Illinois.
But legislation has been introduced in enough states to reach the 270-elector threshold, including swing states like Arizona, Michigan, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin.

The legislation relies on two provisions of the US constitution, which would face intense legal scrutiny if and when the compact comes into force.
Article II, section 1 of the constitution authorizes each state to appoint electors “in such manner as the legislature thereof may direct”.
The constitution does not require states to even have a vote for president, never mind delegating those electors as a state’s voters choose.

The second provision, article I, section 10, clause 3 of the US constitution, governs interstate compacts.
The text authorizes states to form legally binding agreements governing their relationships to one another.
The text requires states to gain the assent of Congress to enact a compact.
But longstanding US supreme court precedent holds that states only require congressional approval for a compact if the agreement infringes on federal power.
Supporters of the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact argue that the delegation of electors is a state power, not a federal power.

A Pew Research Center poll from 2024 showed that 63% of Americans would replace the electoral college with a national popular vote for president, with 35% opposing change
