On 20 February 2019, an article reporting that President Donald Trump had invoked the 25th Amendment to remove Nancy Pelosi as House Speaker for mental health reasons was published by the website BustaTroll.org, an extension of the America's Last Line of Defense network of junk news websites: This was not a genuine news report but rather a piece of fiction of published by a well-known purveyor of junk news. The 25th Amendment governs issues regarding the removal and replacement of the President and Vice President of the United States, not the Speaker of the House of other members of Congress. America's Last Line of Defense is a network of political trolling sites that mock President Trump and his base of supporters under the guise of proffering satire. This article, for example, was tagged Pelosi satire so rubes have a woman to hate category.
