In light of the occupation of the U.S. Capitol by a violent mob, U.S. Congresswoman Stephanie Murphy, a former national security specialist at the Pentagon, called on the 25th Amendment to be invoked to ensure a peaceful transfer of power:
“The President incited a violent insurrection against our democracy — proof he’s unable to uphold the Constitution. The 25th Amendment should be invoked and the President removed to ensure a peaceful transition of power. Protecting our democracy will always be my top priority.”
