Allegations of an 'Autopen Presidency'

  • πŸ“Œ Congresswoman Beth Van Duyne alleges that President Biden was not actively running the country, citing internal emails about his use of an autopen for official decisions.
  • πŸ’‘ The autopen was reportedly used to sign off on 2,500 criminal pardons in the final days of his presidency, raising concerns about who was actually in charge.
  • ⚠️ A White House lawyer is quoted stating, "Biden does not review the warrants," further fueling claims that decisions were outsourced.

'Weekend at Bernie's' Presidency

  • 🎭 Van Duyne likens the situation to a "Weekend at Bernie's auto pen presidency," suggesting a lack of presidential engagement and control.
  • πŸ›οΈ She questions the extent of this practice, implying that numerous executive orders and directives might have been issued without Biden's direct review.
  • πŸ” The investigation into these pardons and the autopen usage is described as the "worst scandal" in US history, with more revelations expected.

Concerns Over Presidential Capacity

  • πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ She implies that the 25th Amendment should have been considered if there were doubts about his ability to discharge his duties.

Criticism of the Democrat Party

  • 🚩 Van Duyne criticizes the current direction of the Democrat Party, pointing to figures like Illinois Governor JB Pritzker encouraging citizens to record law enforcement.
  • 🚫 She argues that Democrats are "doubling down on their crazy" by defending individuals involved in drug trafficking, violence, and illegal immigration.
  • πŸ“‰ This perceived shift is seen as a reason for the party's electoral losses and low support numbers, with predictions of a "bloodbath" in upcoming midterms.
