Johnson Removes Stanton as War Secretary in Lincoln Era Turmoil
Washington reports intense turmoil after President Johnson declared Stanton removed as Secretary of War. The Senate and House convened in executive sessions, with Commitees visiting Stanton and Grant to assess loyalty and determine a path. A subsequent order appointing Lorenzo Thomas ad interim sparked protests and delayed action as Congress debates impeachment and constitutional limits. Midnight crowds, rumors, and a looming court challenge shape a day of historic crisis.
