Republican Senator Josh Hawley has called for Congress to consider using the 25th Amendment to remove Democrat President Joe Biden from office.
The call comes in response to Biden’s disastrous press conference on Wednesday.
During the presser, Biden stunned the world with comments that seemed to greenlight Russia’s “incursion” into Ukraine before casting doubt on our own elections.
It was such a debacle multiple attempts were made to clean up the mess Biden made.
Sen. Hawley said: “Store shelves are empty, prices are soaring, real wages are declining, American cities are engulfed in violence, the border is controlled by the cartels & parents are treated as terrorists while actual terrorists go free.
“When do the Dems seriously consider the 25th Amendment?
“Joe Biden dangerously claiming results of 2022 elections will be illegitimate unless Congress passes his election power grab. Resign.”

One Ukrainian official who spoke to CNN said that “Kyiv is stunned.”
The official said he was “shocked that the US President Biden would distinguish between incursion and invasion.
“This gives the green light to Putin to enter Ukraine at his pleasure.”
CNN’s Matthew Chance reported from inside Kyiv and said Ukrainian officials “watched those remarks with horror.”
Biden said:
“It’s one thing if it’s a minor incursion and we end up having to fight about what to do and not do.
“But if they actually do what they’re capable of doing with the forces amassed on the border, it is going to be a disaster for Russia if they further invade Ukraine.
“If they further invade Ukraine.”
If that is not a pass to invade some of Ukraine it is tough to imagine what would be considered a pass.
“It’s very important that we keep everyone in NATO on the same page.
“That’s what I’m spending a lot of time doing, and there are differences.
“There are differences in NATO as to what countries are willing to do, depending on what happens.
“I’m not so sure he is certain what he is going to do. My guess is he will move in. He has to do something.
“He is trying to find his place in the world between China and the west.”
