GOP lawmaker calls on Cabinet to ‘explore’ removing Biden under 25th Amendment (Rep. Claudia Tenney)

Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-N.Y.) called on members of the Biden administration to “explore” removing President Biden under the 25th Amendment after a special counsel cleared him of any wrongdoing but painted him as an elderly man with a failing memory.

In a letter obtained by Fox News Digital, Tenney reportedly wrote to Attorney General Merrick Garland Thursday night to share her “grave concerns.”

“After concluding that President Biden knowingly and willfully removed, mishandled, and disclosed classified documents repeatedly over a period of decades, Mr. Hur nevertheless recommended that charges not be brought against him,” her letter said. “Special Counsel’s reasoning was alarming.”

Special Counsel Robert Hur released his findings Thursday in the case into Biden’s handling of classified materials. Hur’s 388-page report investigated how documents from Biden’s time as vice president ended up at his Wilmington, Del., home and an old office space. Hur determined that he “willfully” retained the documents but didn’t bring forth any charges, describing Biden as an “elderly man with a poor memory.”

Tenney argued that the Department of Justice “cannot ethically” bring charges against former President Trump and decline to bring them against Biden.

She argued that Biden, who is 81, is lacking the ability to execute his responsibilities as president.

Dumb move.

Anyone else they would replace him with will most likely have a better chance of winning.

All of that 45-47 Trump gear becomes a collectors item. They will start making 45-48 gear.

Good point.

The DOJ won’t prosecute because they are worried that a jury will expose Biden for what he is…suffering some cognitive issue that is at this point, dangerous. For safety and national security reasons…how is he fit to be president?

That’s a very good point about the possible conflict of interest because of line of succession. I overlooked that.

Of course, he’s probably working quietly behind the scenes on strategy.

Yes. Him and the Laughing Hyena.

There don’t seem to be many good options left for the Dems. Replacing Biden wouldn’t solve all their problems. Whoever stepped in to take his place would still have Biden’s record as an albatross around their necks. Getting Michelle Obama to run would probably be their smartest move but she doesn’t appear to want it.

Will a 25th Amendment action provoke a Constitutional Crisis (based on the ineligibility of Kamala Harris to assume the Presidency)?
