Rep. Adam Kinzinger, a Republican from Illinois, tweeted a video message Thursday calling for the 25th Amendment to be invoked and President Trump to be removed from office.
Kinzinger said that yesterday, it became evident that Trump "has abdicated his duty to protect the American people and the people's house."
Kinzinger said Trump "invoked and inflamed passions that only gave fuel to the insurrection that we saw here."
"It's time to invoke the 25th Amendment and end this nightmare," he added.
It’s with a heavy heart I am calling for the sake of our Democracy that the 25th Amendment be invoked. My statement: pic.twitter.com/yVyQrYcjuD
