Trump's 25th Amendment Bill

Trump's 25th Amendment Bill

Led by Representative Jamie Raskin, the bill would create a permanent congressional body to assess the president's mental fitness.

More than 70 Democrats have signed on as sponsors, citing Trump's threats to 'annihilate' Iranian civilization as evidence of instability.

While the bill is unlikely to pass a Republican-controlled Congress, it highlights the deepening divide over the president's leadership style.

Trump has dismissed the effort as a 'partisan witch hunt,' while his supporters in the Senate have rallied behind his wartime powers.

The move reflects growing concern among critics that the president's behavior is becoming increasingly unpredictable.
