JUST IN; Gavin Newsom Calls for 25th Amendment to Remove Donald Trump amid escalating tension with Iran and Trump’s threat to end a whole civilizationhe is going to ruin us all

In a dramatic escalation of political tensions, California Governor Gavin Newsom has publicly called for the invocation of the 25th Amendment to remove President Trump from office.

Speaking amid growing national and international concern, Newsom argued that the current situation demands urgent constitutional action, stating that the president is “unable to effectively discharge the powers and duties of the office.” While he did not provide detailed evidence in his initial remarks, the call underscores mounting pressure from some political figures who believe the country is entering a period of instability.

The 25th Amendment, ratified in 1967, provides a mechanism for the vice president and a majority of the president’s Cabinet to declare the president unfit to serve. If invoked, power would be temporarily transferred to the vice president—currently JD Vance—who would assume the role of acting president. However, such a move would almost certainly trigger a fierce political and legal battle, particularly if the president contests the declaration.

So far, there has been no official indication from the White House or senior Cabinet members that they intend to pursue this course of action. Allies of President Donald Trump have dismissed the call as politically motivated, arguing that any attempt to invoke the amendment without broad bipartisan support would deepen divisions in an already polarized political climate.

Political analysts note that invoking the 25th Amendment is extremely rare and has never been used to permanently remove a sitting president against their will. Past uses have largely been temporary, such as during medical procedures.

Newsom’s remarks are likely to intensify debate in Washington, as lawmakers, constitutional experts, and the public weigh the gravity of such a step. Whether his call gains traction among federal officials remains uncertain, but it signals a significant moment in an already volatile political landscape.

As the situation unfolds, attention will turn to the vice president and Cabinet—whose collective decision would ultimately determine whether the constitutional process moves forward or remains a political flashpoint.
