Calling a spade a spade











... it is clearly an attempt at a coup d’état ...





Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz on Thursday said the Department of Justice’Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz on Thursday said the Department of Justice’s discussions to employ the 25th Amendment to oust President Trump-- if true-- amounted to an attempted coup.

Dershowitz appeared on Fox News’ “Tucker Carlson Tonight,” to give his take on former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe’s descriptions of Justice Department meetings where he said officials discussed ousting the president.

“If [McCabe’s comments are] true, it is clearly an attempt at a coup d’état,” Dershowitz said.

Evoking the 25th Amendment, Dershowitz added, would be a fundamental misuse of its original purpose. He said it was originally "about Woodrow Wilson having a stroke. It’s about a president being shot and not being able to perform his office." discussions to employ the 25th Amendment to oust President Trump-- if true-- amounted to an attempted coup.

Nanners can't tell the difference between Valentine's Day and Thanksgiving, but President Trump is unfit.

Skoonj- link worked for me OK.

Dershowitz is right, this 25th Amendment talk is talk about a coup. I still can't believe that we don't have multiple high-profile arrests of top FBI, CIA, & DOJ people, who are on record as conspiring to overthrow the duly elected president of the USA by illicit means.

I realize that our government agencies are corrupt, and our Fake News Media is bought & paid for, but this is mind-boggling!
