Nancy Pelosi, President of the United States House of Representatives, wants to prevent Donald Trump from unleashing a nuclear war and, in that sense, has developed contacts so that the occupier of the White House does not have access to nuclear codes.
Pelosi questioned the chief of staff of the American Armed Forces, Mark Milley, about “what mechanisms are available to prevent an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or having access to nuclear launch codes,” according to Bloomberg.
The request sent to the Pentagon came after Pelosi and Democratic Senate leader Chuck Schumer asked the vice president, Mike Pence, to invoke the 25th Amendment so that Trump would be removed from office for instigating his supporters’ invasion. to the Capitol.
“The situation of this unbalanced president could not be more dangerous and we must do everything we can to protect the American people from their attacks on our country and our democracy,” said Pelosi in that letter.
The House of Representatives leader also called on Congressional Republicans to pressure Trump to step down immediately. Donald Trump ends his term on the 19th, passing the presidency into the hands of Joe Biden on the 20th, the date of the inauguration.
