I'm not a fan of Dershowitz, but I don't see any plausible counterargument here. Either way, invoking the 25th Amendment would obviously not be the purview of the FBIhttps://twitter.com/AlanDersh/status/1096433289311731712 …

Saying that using a provision found in the Constitution is inherently un-Constitutional, though, doesn't exactly mark one as the sharpest knife in the drawer.

That's not what I'm saying. The Constitution is always dubiously and wrongly cited to justify things that turn out to be illegal

The 25th Amendment specifies who can invoke it, and it isn't any bureaucratic cabal.

The FBI isnt a fourth branch of government. There like an artificial intelligence program that has turned on its creator.... This is a serious problem

The 2nd amendment is also in the constitution. Lord knows what that justifies.

The really dumb part when you game it out is that it would ultimately require 2/3 majorities of both houses of Congress to make it stick. If there's that kind of support for removing a President, impeachment is easier.

Jim Acosta pushed that talking point as a "fact check", and he's the one who got mad at Trump for pointing out the rise in Fake Fact Checking.

Read it: VP and "principal officers of the executive departments..." would say Trump is unfit and Pence would be President immediately. IF Trump disagrees...then ONLY Congress decides!

But the same folks have no problem understanding why trump invoking a national emergency improperly is unconstitutional. Not sheer stupidity. Naked partisanship. Same thing I guess.

Obama declared an emergency to take action in Burundi. This has nothing to do with national security. The media said not a peep.

It reminds me of when Eric Holder said Obama's assassination program was constitutional because there was a process involved, and that counts as "due process"
