He appointed allies Pam Bondi and David Warrington to examine whether Biden&#8217;s aides concealed his mental decline and unconstitutionally exercised presidential powers on his behalf.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"480\" data-end=\"773\">The probe will look into claims that Biden\u2019s cognitive state was so diminished that staffers effectively governed in his name\u2014often using an <em data-start=\"621\" data-end=\"630\">autopen<\/em> to sign documents without his direct input. The order suggests this may have invalidated numerous executive actions during Biden\u2019s presidency.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"775\" data-end=\"1078\">The investigation follows the release of <em data-start=\"816\" data-end=\"830\">Original Sin<\/em>, a book by Jake Tapper and Alex Thompson, detailing Biden\u2019s alleged decline since 2015. Trump\u2019s order also questions whether videos of Biden\u2019s lapses were falsely discredited and if aides coordinated efforts to mislead the public about his health.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1080\" data-end=\"1337\">While autopens are not uncommon in government, Trump argues Biden was unaware of key decisions and signatures. If true, the order claims, this would be an unconstitutional abuse of power with far-reaching implications for the legality of Biden-era policies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1339\" data-end=\"1498\">Ironically, Trump himself recently disavowed knowledge of an executive order bearing his signature, but maintains Biden\u2019s case is far broader and more serious.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trump Orders Probe Into Biden\u2019s Mental Fitness and Use of Autopen Among several new executive orders issued today, Donald Trump announced a controversial investigation targeting Joe Biden.
