[Answer] What amendment can be invoked to remove a President from office?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What amendment can be invoked to remove a President from office?"



...The 25th Amendment, ratified in 1967, clarifies presidential succession and establishes the process for declaring a president unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office. Section 4 of the amendment allows the vice president and a majority of the cabinet to formally declare the president incapacitated—temporarily or permanently—enabling the vice president to assume presidential responsibilities. This provision has never been fully invoked, but it remains a crucial constitutional mechanism designed to maintain stability during moments of presidential disability or crisis.

[Answer] What was the name of the character known as “The Professor” on the sitcom Gilligan’s Island?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "What was the name of the character known as “The Professor” on the sitcom Gilligan’s Island?"



...Although he was almost always called simply “The Professor,” the character’s full name—Roy Hinkley—was mentioned only once during the show’s entire run. Played by Russell Johnson, the ever-resourceful botanist and science teacher from Cleveland served as the brainy problem-solver among the castaways, building gadgets, conducting experiments, and routinely devising clever (though unsuccessful) plans to get everyone off the island. His seldom-spoken full name has since become a favorite nugget of trivia for fans of the classic television sitcom.

[Answer] Which Cheers cast member got his early break playing Private LaRoche on M*A*S*H?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Which Cheers cast member got his early break playing Private LaRoche on M*A*S*H?"



...Before becoming the beloved bar-stool regular Norm Peterson on Cheers, George Wendt made a memorable appearance on M*A*S*H. In the show's Season 11 Halloween episode, he played Private LaRoche, a soldier who arrives at the 4077th with a billiard ball lodged in his mouth—an offbeat role that helped showcase his comedic timing. Just a few years later, Wendt would join the cast of Cheers and turn “Norm!” into one of the most iconic entrances in television history. His brief stop in Korea remains a fun piece of TV trivia linking two classic sitcoms.

[Answer] Queen Elizabeth II owned many generations of which dog breed?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "Queen Elizabeth II owned many generations of which dog breed?"



...Queen Elizabeth II’s bond with corgis became one of the most recognizable aspects of her public image. Her affection for the breed began in 1933 when the royal family brought home their first corgi, Dookie, sparking a fascination that would last her entire life. In 1944, Elizabeth received her own corgi, Susan, for her 18th birthday—a gift that proved especially meaningful. Nearly every corgi the queen owned for the next 14 generations descended from Susan, creating a true royal bloodline of beloved companions. Over the course of her 70-year reign, the Queen owned roughly 30 corgis in all.

[Answer] The sinking of what ship led to the Spanish-American War in 1898?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "The sinking of what ship led to the Spanish-American War in 1898?"



...The USS Maine exploded and sank in Havana Harbor on February 15, 1898, killing more than 260 American sailors. Although the exact cause of the explosion remains debated, sensationalist newspaper coverage—often called “yellow journalism”—blamed Spain. The rallying cry “Remember the Maine! To hell with Spain!” swept across the United States and became a driving force behind the decision to declare war. The incident transformed a long-brewing tension into conflict, marking the start of the Spanish–American War.
