Friday Funnies: “Diminished Faculties”
Time to retire, Mr. President
Time to retire, Mr. President.
“In his interview with our office, he did not remember when he was vice president, forgetting on the first day of the interview when his term ended (‘if it was 2013 – when did I stop being Vice President?’), and forgetting on the second day of the interview when his term began (‘in 2009, am I still Vice President?’).”
“He did not remember, even within several years, when his son Beau died,” the report adds.
If Biden won’t step down, it is time for the 25th amendment to be activated.
The 25th Amendment deals with presidential (and vice presidential) succession and disability. It was passed by Congress in July 1965 after considerable public debate and consideration in the House and Senate. It took about 18 months for three-quarters of the states to ratify the amendment.
Sections 3 and 4 deal with situations where a President may suffer an “inability” or “disability.” The 25th Amendment’s Section 3 allows the President to tell Congress that the Vice President can act as President until he or she is able to resume work.
Section 4 is the most controversial part of the 25th Amendment: It allows the Vice President and either the Cabinet, or a body approved “by law” formed by Congress, to jointly agree that “the President is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.” This clause was designed to deal with a situation where an incapacitated President couldn’t tell Congress that the Vice President needed to act as President.
It also allows the President to protest such a decision, and for two-thirds of Congress to decide in the end if the President is unable to serve due to a condition perceived by the Vice President, and either the Cabinet or a body approved by Congress. So the Cabinet, on its own, can’t block a President from using his or her powers if the President objects in writing. Congress would settle that dispute and the Vice President is the key actor in the process.
For the good of the country, President Biden needs to step down gracefully, before the indignity of being removed becomes more than a remote possibility.

People who watch Vladimir Putin's interview with Tucker Carlson cannot help but notice the difference in mental acuity between the Russian president and the US president.
What a state we’re in. Ok, I get it, special prosecutor Robert Hur pretty much cleared Joe Biden of all previous crimes because of his dementia. Does this make him immune for any and all future crimes? J.Goodrich
