| [WSJ] The American people have largely taken the disruptive Trump Presidency in stride, going about their lives and expressing their approval or not the constitutional way‐at the ballot box. The same can’t be said for many of the country’s panicked elites, as we are learning anew about the Federal Bureau of Investigation as former deputy director Andrew McCabe hawks a new memoir. Mr. McCabe now says that, after Mr. Trump fired FBI director Jim Comey in May 2017, Mr. McCabe and senior Justice Department officials "discussed whether the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet could be brought together to remove the President of the United States under the 25th Amendment." That’s according to Scott Pelley’s account of his interview with Mr. McCabe aired Sunday on CBS’s "60 Minutes." In the interview, Mr. McCabe says Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein raised the 25th Amendment scenario "and discussed it with me in the context of thinking about how many other cabinet officials might support such an effort." Mr. McCabe says he didn’t contribute much but seems to excuse the conversation because "it was an unbelievably stressful time." |
