US VP Mike Pence told House leaders he will not invoke 25th Amendment to remove Donald Trump, all but guaranteeing an imminent impeachment vote against the president

President Donald Trump hands copies of his speech to House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and VP Mike Pence during a joint session of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington on Feb. 4, 2020.

"I do not believe that such a course of action is in the best interest of our nation or consistent with our Constitution," he said, hours before the House was to vote on a measure calling on him to initiate the 25th Amendment process or risk an impeachment vote against Trump. The group, led by Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick of Pennsylvania, said in a statement Tuesday that they believe Democrats’ push to impeach the president for a second time is unrealistic and would likely result in acquittal by the Senate.
