**BREAKING: Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker Calls for Donald Trump’s Removal Under the 25th Amendment**

**Chicago, IL —** In a forceful public statement Tuesday, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker urged that President Donald Trump be removed from office under the 25th Amendment, citing serious concerns about Trump’s mental fitness and recent rhetoric.

Speaking to reporters, Pritzker sharply criticized Trump’s recent speech to military leaders in Quantico, Virginia, where the president floated the idea of using American cities — including Chicago — as “training grounds” for U.S. troops. The governor described such remarks as deeply alarming, warning they reflect a dangerous mindset.

> “It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in, but he’s copying tactics of Vladimir Putin,” Pritzker said.

> He went on: “Sending troops into cities … thinking that that’s some sort of proving ground for war … is just, frankly, inane — and I’m concerned for his health.”
> Pritzker concluded with a pointed call: “There is something genuinely wrong with this man, and the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked

The 25th Amendment allows for the transfer of presidential power if it is determined that a president is “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office. However, invoking it requires a majority of the Cabinet and the vice president to agree, which makes such a move both rare and politically fraught

Reaction has been swift. Some supporters praise Pritzker for speaking out, while critics argue invoking the 25th Amendment would be a drastic, destabilizing step. At least one Democratic member of Congress has publicly backed Pritzker’s demand.

For his part, Trump has not directly addressed calls to invoke the amendment, though the White House has repeatedly defended his “commitment to the safety and security of all Americans.”

Political analysts note that even if such a push gains traction in the court of public opinion, the procedural and constitutional hurdles are high — and a successful invocation would represent a historic moment in American governance.
