U.S. Senator Ed Markey calls for invoking the 25th Amendment

Massachusetts Senator Ed Markey has urged action under the 25th Amendment to remove President Donald Trump from office, citing reports about Trump’s comments linking Greenland, NATO ally Norway, and the Nobel Peace Prize. According to those reports, Trump suggested that not receiving the Nobel Prize freed him from focusing solely on peace while pursuing U.S. interests. Markey argued that such remarks demonstrate unfitness for office and could endanger national security, sharing a news report on social media to press for action. The White House dismissed the call as political theater, while legal experts note that removal would require the vice president, Cabinet approval, and substantial congressional support—making it unlikely.
