Republican Rep. Nancy Mace (R-NY) has demanded that Democrat President Joe Biden be removed from office.
In a post on X, Mace called on Vice President Kamala Harris to invoke the 25th Amendment to remove Biden.
The congresswoman made the call after Biden dropped out of the presidential race with a social media post on Sunday.
In a statement, Mace said:
“If Joe Biden does not have the cognitive ability to seek reelection, he does not have the cognitive ability to serve the remainder of his term.
“Tomorrow I will introduce a resolution calling on Kamala Harris to invoke the 25th amendment and assume the duties of acting President.”
In the post, Mace included the text of her resolution.
The resolution noted that “for years it has been clear to the American people that President Joseph R. Biden Jr. was experiencing severe cognitive decline and was mentally incapable of discharging the powers and duties of his office.”
She also noted that Biden’s debate performance raised “new concerns” about his cognitive state.

Many have argued that Biden’s decision to step down from the 2024 election means he is incapable of being president until then.
Biden has dropped out amid growing concerns about his health as Democrats fear he wasn’t up to challenging President Donald Trump.
It has become increasingly obvious that Biden is not capable of doing the job as president.
The situation has led to mounting questions about who is actually running the country.
If Biden is not fitting enough to continue running his campaign, it certainly raises concerns about him running the country until January 2025.
However, if Biden is removed, he will be replaced by Harris, which could be even worse.
Biden’s departure will completely change the trajectory of the 2024 election.
He and most other Democrats have endorsed Harris, but she has worse approval ratings than Biden.
Biden posted his intention to step down from his re-election bid on X, and no one has seen him since.
He said in “his letter” that he would explain his decision at a later date.
However, the detached way the announcement was made has raised questions about whether Biden even knows about it, or whether his staff posted on his behalf.
The signature on the letter doesn’t match any other official documents and it wasn’t stamped with the presidential seal.
The official narrative is that Biden tested positive for Covid last week and is “self-isolating.”
