"I Saw It on TikTok. It's Actually in the Congressional Record."

I Saw It on TikTok. It’s Actually in the.Congressional Record.

The Senate has it on record. The press doesn’t. Here is the document, the history, and the gap between them.

STATEMENT FROM MEDICAL PROFESSIONALS; Congressional Record Vol. 172, No. 76 (Senate - April 30, 2026)
https://www.congress.gov/congressional-record/volume-172/issue-76/senate-section/article/S2162-1


The author, Rachel @ This Woman Votes, was startled to learn about the statement for medical professionals on TikTok rather than on professional news sources. She provides a very thought-provoking discussion of why the Press has not picked it up.

She really examines the whole question of a president who has become incompetent and the history of the 25th amendment and how it was set up. Why has it been historically hard to remove a President who needed to be removed?

Insightful.

The somnolence is a new concern but he is almost 80... everything else is not new behavior. It is ingrained in his character and how he has always operated.
