A number of congressional Democrats were raising concerns and demanding that it was time to invoke the 25th Amendment on Tuesday after President Donald Trump raised a serious threat to permanently damage Iran and its people. Trump said via his Truth Social platform that if Iran did not meet his negotiation deadline by 8 p.m. ET, "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don’t want that to happen, but it probably will." Lawmakers responded to the president's comments, citing it was time to force Trump from office and pass presidential powers and duties to Vice President JD Vance. On social media, Democrats made it known where they stood: "I’m sick to my stomach. The fate of millions of innocent civilians now depends on the whims of a sick and demented man. This is pure evil. Republicans, if there were ever a time to stand up, it’s now. We must invoke the 25th Amendment before it’s too late," Rep. Sydney Kamlager-Dove (D-CA) wrote on X."Trump is escalating a devastating, illegal war, threatening massive war crimes and targeting civilian infrastructure in Iran. In the last 48 hours alone, the rhetoric has crossed every line. Pete Hegseth is complicit. I’ve called for the 25th Amendment and am introducing Articles of Impeachment against Hegseth," Rep. Yassamin Ansari (D-AZ) wrote on X. "After bombing a school and massacring young girls, the war criminal in the White House is threatening genocide. It's time to invoke the 25th Amendment. This maniac should be removed from office," Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) wrote on X."Donald Trump must be removed from office. Not only is he waging an illegal war—he’s threatening war crimes. To the members of our military: remember, you do not have to follow illegal orders," Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) wrote on X."This is sick and twisted from anyone, much less the president of the United States. Trump’s genocidal language and indiscriminate warfare cannot be normalized or accepted. He should be removed from office," Rep. Summer Lee (D-PA) wrote on X."Donald Trump is an unhinged warmonger and war criminal using violence for personal gain and profit, while innocent people pay the price. We must stop this war immediately. Every member of Congress must stand up to these threats and put an end to this before more lives are lost. Congress must reconvene to pass the War Powers Resolution. The 25th Amendment must also be invoked. Congress has to do our damn job. War powers and impeachment," Rep. Maxwell Alejandro Frost (D-FL) wrote on X.
