image for Trump calls for modifying the 25th Amendment and says a VP “engages in a conspiracy to cover up the incapacity of the president” they should be removed

Former President Donald Trump speaks behind bullet-resistant glass during a campaign event at Central Wisconsin Airport on Saturday, September 7, 2024.

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday called for “modifying” the 25th Amendment to allow for the removal of a vice president who “lies or engages in a conspiracy to cover up the incapacity of the president,” a political nonstarter and the latest escalation of his attacks on President Joe Biden and the change atop the Democratic ticket.

“He has the intelligence, the commitment and the judgment and disposition that I think the American people rightly deserve in their president.”.

The 25th Amendment lays out presidential succession and the process for removing a president, which would require the support of the vice president and a majority of the president’s Cabinet.

Trump was twice impeached by the House during his first term, but was not removed from office by the Senate.

Trump’s call to alter the 25th Amendment invokes past calls to remove him from office.

Some members of the former president’s Cabinet discussed using the 25th Amendment to remove him after the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol. »

Ukrainian defense intelligence sources have given CNN a list of 15 cases since November, most supported by drone video or audio intercepts, in which they say surrendering Ukrainian troops were killed by the Russians on the front lines, rather than being taken prisoner.

Ukrainian prosecutors said Friday they were now investigating “the possible execution of 73 Ukrainian prisoners of war by the Russian military.”.

Drone footage from eastern Ukraine last month captures the moment three Ukrainian soldiers stagger onto a dusty track and kneel down, hands on their heads, seeking to surrender. »
