25th Amendment Revelations: ‘One of the Most Significant Moments in American History if It’s True’
Breitbart ^ | 2-19-2019 | Jeff Poor

Monday on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) sounded off on former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s claim Justice Department officials considered using the 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump from office in 2017.

The South Carolina Republican vowed to conduct oversight over “those who watch us.”

“It’s one of the most significant moments in American history if it’s true,” Graham said. “You had the acting head of the FBI talking to the deputy attorney general about replacing the president.

So what I’ll do — oversight is part of my job. We do have checks and balances, so the Congress will watch those who watch us.

Rush Linbaugh has had a good segment on this coup attempt on his radio program today. He said that this is the most important thing going on in the country presently...even larger than the WALL.

I agree....SOMEBODY BETTER START DOING SOMETHING TO THE TRAITORS STILL HARRASSING THE ELECTED PRESIDENT!

Someone else should be joining Graham, I don't trust him to do the right thing just by himself.

Hillary started the coup with 6 million for a fake dossier. Obama left it going with a fake application for a FISA warrant. The doj and FBI are minions.

That’s not how the 25th works.
A bunch of bureaucrats cannot conspire to invoke the 25th because they lost.

It would be the same as the town counsel of Bangor,Maine invoking the 25th and trying to remove the President or, the occupants of skid row in S.F.

I'm sure the plan was to blackmail cabinet officers into doing it. When the Deep State has the NSA that's child's play.

What if Rosenstein was wearing a wire during this conversation?

Maybe linda could focus on getting a judge or two through. Has he even gotten one through yet? All talk no action.

The conspirators would have needed Pence to join their plot, which seems very unlikely to have happened. Then Trump could declare that he was not incapacitated, and it would have required a two-thirds vote in both Houses to remove him. Even with the RINOs it would have been hard to reach that level. Plus would the country have stood by impassively while such a charade was going on?

At best they could have made Pence Acting President--he would not have become President.

The real danger may come in 2020 if it appears that the Democrat nominee has not much chance of beating Trump. At that point the Deep State may decide that Trump has to be removed by assassination.

Fortunately, the NSA Chief at the time wasn't besties with Barack.
