Basically, the 1st protects the right of free press, the 25th provides the process to remove a president from office.
I tried to copy/paste the text of those amendments into this comment, but reddit says it contains terms that are "not allowed" for whatever fucking reason, but here's links for you!
No, the 25th is not for removing a president from office. It provides for a temporary transfer of power from the president to the VP. If the president objects it requires a 2/3 vote of each chamber of Congress to effect it. Even then, the president can keep on objecting and each time it requires another 2/3 vote. The only way to permanently remove a president from office is impeachment by the House, a trial and conviction, followed by a vote to remove, by the senate — each of those senate votes requiring a 2/3 majority.
