West Virginia Attorney General Patrick Morrisey is urging Vice President Kamala Harris to invoke her powers under Section 4 of the 25th Amendment and declare that President Joe Biden is unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.
The attorney general wrote a letter to Harris on the heels of a scathing report from Special Counsel Robert Hur that raised serious concerns about the 81-year-old president’s mental and physical condition.
Hur found that charges were not warranted against Biden for his mishandling of classified documents from his previous positions as vice president and senator.
Hur noted that “Mr. Biden would likely present himself to a jury, as he did during our interview of him, as a sympathetic, well-meaning, elderly man with a poor memory,” according to the attorney general’s Office.
“President Biden’s cognitive decline is of great concern to Americans, especially during these times that our nation is facing crisis after crisis both here and abroad,” Morrisey said, writing in the letter, “We need a president who is mentally fit.”
