It’s possible that they had to go to the underlying storage, but it probably didn’t even take that.





This is slightly incorrect. Congress can pass a law forming a body which can then determine if the president is unable to perform their duties and invoke section 4 of the 25th amendment.
Passing such a law would almost certainly require a veto override, and even then, Congress would still need a two thirds majority of both houses to make section four stick.
This bill’s primary purpose is to force Republicans to be on record that they are just fine with whatever unhinged things Trump is doing. Just like the war powers bills.
