Following the January 6 Coup incited by the President, my most immediate concern is that the US is effectively leaderless
This at a time leadership is desperately needed.
Cabinet and other Administration officials are resigning or acting independently. Numerous agencies are operating under acting heads and other senior positions, many installed since the election, including DoJ and DoD.
The Vice President ordered deployment of the National Guard, and the Military complied, despite the office being entirely outside military command. The order and response, though the right ones, were entirely outside legal authority.
Military allegiances appear in at least part divided, though generally alligned with Nation and Constitution, rather than the Person of the President.
Law enforcement allegiances are much more dubious, and general uncertainty widespread.
Numerous members of the Legislature, though not leadership, remain seditiously alligned with the Person, rather than Office, of the President.
Integrity of the Secret Service is openly questioned.
Trust and integrity of the Executive branch are in question.
The current President of the United States is the country's greatest national security risk, a fact openly acknowledged.
Should further external or internal threats emerge the nation is in immediate peril. Capability to assess and act in the Nation's are disrupted.
A 25th amendment removal, even if followed by a post-term impeachment, would address that lack. Failure to remove a clear and present danger, or obstruction of same, are themselves abdication of responsibility aiding the insurrection, itself impeachable.
