Was Biden Just a Signature? a Presidency on Autopen
Use of Autopen for Official Documents The House Oversight Committee is investigating President Biden’s use of an autopen to sign executive orders and pardons. Allegations suggest that Biden may not have been directly involved in the decision-making process for these documents. Claims of Cognitive Decline Representative James Comer and others allege a “cover-up” of President Biden’s cognitive decline. Staffers reportedly gave conflicting accounts about Biden’s involvement and the authorization process for using the autopen. Several aides and officials allegedly had minimal or no direct contact with Biden during key decision-making periods. Lack of Documentation and Chain of Custody The report claims there are no notes, meeting records, or evidence showing Biden’s involvement in signing or approving the documents. The White House physician, Dr. O’Connor, reportedly invoked the Fifth Amendment when questioned about Biden’s health. Media and Public Perception The episode criticizes mainstream media for allegedly downplaying or denying signs of Biden’s cognitive decline. It includes quotes and testimonies from former staffers and media figures, some of whom express concern or contradict public statements. Hunter Biden’s Role There are claims that Hunter Biden played an outsized role in decision-making, likened to acting as a “chief of staff.” Allegations suggest that family members or unelected officials may have influenced presidential duties.

Al-Shabaab & the Minnesota Taxpayers, University Declares ‘Whiteness’ a Pandemic plus Texas Takes Aim at Terror Week In Review
Massive Welfare Fraud in Minnesota Funding Terrorism Allegations that Minnesota taxpayers indirectly funded the terrorist group Al-Shabab through fraudulent welfare programs. Fraud reportedly involved members of the Somali community, with billions of dollars stolen and millions sent to Somalia, some ending up with Al-Shabaab. The program cited is Minnesota’s Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services (HHS), which ballooned from an estimated $2.6 million to over $104 million annually before being scrapped. Criminal indictments have been announced, but the commentary criticizes lack of media coverage and political accountability. University of Minnesota’s “Whiteness Pandemic” Concept The university published material describing “whiteness” as a cultural pandemic driving racism. Family systems perpetuate whiteness and calls for self-reflection and re-education for white individuals. The commentary strongly condemns this as Marxist, anti-family, and anti-American ideology, framing it as indoctrination in higher education. Texas Designates Muslim Brotherhood and CARE as Terrorist Organizations Texas Governor Greg Abbott declared CARE (Council on American-Islamic Relations) and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations. This move prevents these groups from acquiring land in Texas. The discussion highlights CARE’s alleged financial support for anti-Israel campus protests and the broader legislative push to federally designate the Muslim Brotherhood as a terrorist organization. Mentions bipartisan efforts in Congress (Senators Ted Cruz and John Fetterman) and resistance from the State Department. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.

Incident Details Location: Near Farragut West Metro Station, close to the White House. Victims: Two National Guardsmen (one female shot in chest and head, another hit in the neck). Suspect: 29-year-old Afghan national, entered U.S. in 2021 during evacuation, overstayed visa. Attack: Ambush-style, suspect fired multiple rounds, seized a guard’s weapon, and was subdued after being shot.

There are systemic failures in vetting Afghan evacuees, citing DHS admissions of “derogatory information” on thousands of entrants. Ideological Tone The attack is part of a pattern of jihadist violence. The phrase “Allahu Akbar” is a battlefield cry linked to global terrorism. The event is evidence of open-border policies endangering national security. Media and Rhetoric Mainstream media is downplaying the terrorist angle.
