Staff Reports
The latest chapter in the Biden White House saga reads like political satire, but the implications are deadly serious. President Trump has ordered a sweeping investigation into whether Joe Biden’s aides used an autopen—a mechanical device that replicates a signature—to sign critical documents, including thousands of pardons, during Biden’s final days in office. This move comes amid mounting evidence and testimony suggesting Biden’s cognitive decline was so severe that unelected staffers may have been running the executive branch from behind the scenes, using the autopen to push through radical policy shifts without the president’s direct involvement.
For years, presidents have used the autopen for routine paperwork, but never before has there been such widespread and consequential use as alleged under Biden. Reports indicate that, as Biden’s mental and physical health deteriorated, his aides increasingly relied on the autopen to sign not just minor documents, but sweeping executive orders, pardons—including for family members and violent criminals—and even federal judge appointments. The House Oversight Committee, led by Chairman James Comer, is now demanding testimony from top Biden aides and has not ruled out subpoenas for both Joe and Jill Biden, as questions swirl about who was calling the shots in the Oval Office.
The seriousness of these allegations cannot be overstated. If unelected staffers were indeed using a mechanical device to authorize the release of convicted murderers or grant sweeping clemency, it raises fundamental constitutional questions about the legitimacy of those actions. The Justice Department is now investigating whether Biden was competent to authorize such decisions or if others were exploiting his condition to advance their agenda. Trump and his allies argue that this represents one of the greatest scandals in American history—a deliberate cover-up that kept the American people in the dark about who was exercising presidential power.
Adding to the intrigue is the role of First Lady Jill Biden. While conspiracy theories abound, even some mainstream sources now acknowledge she wielded extraordinary influence within the West Wing as her husband’s health faltered. Books and insider accounts describe her as a behind-the-scenes power broker, fiercely protective of her husband and actively involved in managing White House operations. While no direct evidence has surfaced that she operated the autopen herself, her involvement in decision-making is now a subject of congressional scrutiny.
This unfolding drama is more than just political theater—it’s a wake-up call about the dangers of unchecked bureaucracy and the erosion of presidential accountability. Americans deserve to know who is truly making decisions in the White House. The use of the autopen, under these circumstances, is not just a technicality; it’s a symbol of a presidency that may have been hijacked by unelected insiders. As the investigations continue, the country waits for answers—and for the restoration of trust in the highest office in the land.
