‘The time has come for the vice president and the cabinet to put our country first and move forward on invoking the 25th Amendment.’
Rep. Ken Buck (R-Colo.) introduced a resolution to call on Vice President Kamala Harris to oust President Joe Biden by activating the 25th Amendment amid growing concerns over his mental fitness.
In the resolution introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on Feb. 26, Mr. Buck cited, among other incidents, Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report that raised concerns about President Biden’s mental fitness and called into question his mental acuity for the role of president.
“The Hur report officially addressed what many Americans have long witnessed with their own eyes, that President Biden is no longer fit to successfully discharge the critical duties of his office,” Mr. Buck said in a press release. “Numerous instances were articulated in the report and have played out in full public view, showing President Biden’s apparent cognitive decline and lack of mental stamina.”
Mr. Buck’s resolution calls on Vice President Harris to use her powers under Section 4 of the 25th Amendment to convene the cabinet to “declare President Joseph R. Biden incapable of executing the duties of his office and to immediately exercise powers as Acting President.”
The move comes amid the recent release of Special Counsel Robert Hur’s report on the investigation into President Biden’s handling of classified documents. The report described President Biden as “a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory.” The report also referred to the president’s mental fitness as “hazy,” “significantly limited,” and showing signs of “diminished faculties and faulty memory.”
Following the report, President Biden held a press conference, dismissing the special counsel’s findings. “My memory is fine,” President Biden said angrily amidst intense questioning from the press. But he mixed up the presidents of Mexico and Egypt during the press conference.
‘The Time Has Come’
The White House also refuted the report’s findings about the president’s memory, calling them “gratuitous” and “politically motivated.”
