    I'm glad we get to find out how democracy works behind the scenes like this. At least whenever someone is drumming up pre-orders for their book.

    So it was right at the start of his term, too? Wow. The crazy thing about American politics in 2019 is that I can see this being a bombshell or being a news nonentity.

    "There were meetings at the Justice Department at which it was discussed whether the vice president and a majority of the Cabinet could be brought together to remove the president of the United States under the 25th Amendment," Pelley said. "These were the eight days from Comey's firing to the point that Robert Mueller was appointed special counsel. And the highest levels of American law enforcement were trying to figure out what do with the president."
