President Autopilot

The president who wasn't there:
The Heritage Foundation dove deep on official documents from Biden’s time in office and found that nearly all bore the robot’s signature; the chief exception was the one dropping his bid for re-election. Which raises the question: What did the president even know about what he was signing? Fine, other presidents sometimes use the autopen, but none has shown the same symptoms of senility and dementia — issues we now know plagued Biden from his first days in the Oval Office. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) has publicly named at least one Biden executive order (mandating a pause on liquid natural gas exports) that went out the door with the president having a fundamentally incorrect idea what the order actually did. What other orders did Biden “sign” under similar misunderstandings? Were there any orders he never saw at all? And who was actually deciding what got signed? Consider the flurry of left-pleasing executive orders in Biden’s final weeks in office — a blitzkrieg that supposedly originated with a man who months earlier on national TV had revealed himself to be incapable of basic argument or even recalling simple facts. Thanks to the determined professional incuriosity of our journalist class throughout Biden’s decline, it’s likely impossible to ever be sure just who called which shots.
Biden himself couldn't actually tell us...
