Wow. There must be a limit as to how much Mitch baby needs from China.

25th Amendment
Whenever the Vice President and a majority of either the principal officers of the executive departments or of such other body as Congress may by law provide, transmit to the President pro tempore of the Senate and the Speaker of the House of Representatives their written declaration that the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office, the Vice President shall immediately assume the powers and duties of the office as Acting President.

Resigning Cabinet Secretaries lowers the majority threshold for invoking the 25th Amendment

This is ominous. The ground is being laid for some next-level action against Trump. Or they’re just impressing on him that he cannot take any action as president - it’s over, so no reclassifications or other challenges to the empire’s rulers.

And I do mean empire. The US is an empire of you hadn’t yet admitted that to yourself. We have troops in far more locations than Rome did. And if you think they’re there as guests who can be asked to leave, watch some country ask them to leave and see how quickly it happens.

I guess she doesn’t think the 25th Amendment strategy will work.

Before her chi-com payoffs will be revealed and she and Mitch put in the ditch-— owned entirely by chi-com shipyards. Imagine— Sec. of Labor (coolie control?) and then Sec. of Transportation (shipping regulation steering/avoidance for daddy’s and her firm in Taiwan).

That she was in the Cabinet to begin with shows how controlled he was in his actions from the start.

Ms. Chao is a principal family member in a large shipping company that operates out of China. She and her husband, Mcconnell have been compromised for years in their business interests and Federal Gov’t positions. Good riddance.

If there is no cabinet left, can they invoke the 25th amendment?

She wants to stay on China’s good side.

IMHO, she has always been on China’s good side and was at no risk of losing their favor.
