Rep. Adam Kinzinger is first GOP lawmaker to call for invoking 25th Amendment to remove Trump: "The President is unfit and the President is unwell. And the President now must relinquish control of the Executive Branch voluntarily or involuntarily." https://t.co/MJ4zanadOypic.twitter.com/biDGbWMUAp
Trump fired his Secretary of Defense and appointed Christopher C. Miller as acting SOD several weeks ago.
In Jan 6, after the mobs broken in the Capital Hill, Miller rejected the request for help.

DC Council Statement on the Department of Defense’s Denial of DC’s National Guard Deployment Request
JANUARY 06, 2021
Today, the Department of Defense denied a request by Mayor Muriel Bowser to expand the responsibilities of the District of Columbia National Guard so that they would be authorized to protect and restore order at the Capitol Building. That request was denied.
The Council is in full support of the Mayor’s request. We are appalled that this fundamental request was denied. We urge the Department of Defense to reconsider their decision, and to allow the National Guard to restore safety and sanctity to the Capitol, the cornerstone of our Democracy.
The Pentagon blocked the DC National Guard from receiving riot gear or interacting with protesters without explicit approval from Trump's NEW Acting defense secretary
According to Washington Post
1) The Pentagon placed major restrictions on the DC National Guard leading up to Wednesday's attempted insurrection.
2) Officials curtailed the ability of DC guardsmen to deploy troops, receive ammo and riot gear, engage with protesters, share equipment with local police, and use surveillance without explicit approval from Trump's acting Defense Secretary, Christopher Miller, according to the Post.
3) Guardsmen didn't arrive to support US Capitol Police — who were ill-prepared and quickly overrun — until more than two hours after the USCP chief called for them

Pence took lead as Trump initially resisted sending National Guard to Capitol
国民警卫队也不是川普调去的. 是彭斯调去的.
哪怕用脚后跟都会想明白,是川普把人召进首都的. 他非常高兴把事情搞大. 不可能第一时间就把"抗议者"镇压下去的.
Trump lied again in his Jan 7 speech (in which he said he called the national guard).

偷鸡不成蚀把米,自恋狂根本就是无法无天的傻子,官司都输了,最高法院也表态了,还不死心,挑战美国民主制度,不是有精神病,也是缺心眼。这下完蛋了,犯下叛国的大罪,大嘴是吃不了 兜着走。黄川粉也真可怜,不断地舔腚吃屎,然后被啪啪啪,把脸打成屁股了。

美国众议院议员亚当·金辛格 (Adam Kinzinger)成为首位公开呼吁罢免特朗普总统职务的共和党籍国会议员,他于周四(7日)公开呼吁援引美国宪法第二十五修正案解除总统职务,并让彭斯继任。
据美国广播公司7日消息,金辛格在社交媒体上发布的一则视频中表示,美国总统在6日不仅放弃了保护美国人民和美国国会的职责,而且还激起了煽动性的热情,令世人看到了美国的骚乱。金辛格称,所有迹象表明,美国总统已经不受限制,他呼吁副总统和内阁成员,确保接下来几周美国民众的安全,及美国能有个理智的领导人。
在支持特朗普的暴力抗议者6日冲进美国国会大厦后,越来越多的共和党人告诉美国有线电视新闻网(CNN),他们认为特朗普应该在1月20日之前就被免职。CNN称,接受其采访的其中4人呼吁援引美国宪法第二十五修正案,另2人则表示特朗普应该被弹劾。
美国《国会山报》报道称,6日晚间得到证实,联邦政府官员已经开始讨论是否可以通过美国宪法第二十五修正案将特朗普免职。报道称,这将是非同寻常的一步,需要多数内阁官员和副总统彭斯向国会宣布,特朗普已无法履行其总统职责。
