WASHINGTON—Today, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released a staff report titled “The Biden Autopen Presidency: Decline, Delusion, and Deception in the White House.” The report exposes how President Joe Biden’s top advisors, political operatives, and personal physician concealed the President’s mental and physical decline from the American people. The findings reveal that as President Biden’s condition deteriorated, his aides exercised presidential authority and facilitated executive actions without his direct authorization, including misusing the autopen and failing to properly document decision-making processes.
Following the findings of its investigation, the Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.) sent a letter to the U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi requesting the U.S. Department of Justice conduct a comprehensive review of all executive actions taken during the Biden presidency and scrutinize key Biden aides—Dr. Kevin O’Connor, Annie Tomasini, and Anthony Bernal—who pleaded the Fifth Amendment during the investigation. Chairman Comer also sent a letter to the District of Columbia Board of Medicine seeking its review of actions taken by Dr. O’Connor to determine any potential wrongdoing in his medical care of the former president.
“The Biden Autopen Presidency will go down as one of the biggest political scandals in U.S. history. As Americans saw President Biden’s decline with their own eyes, Biden’s inner circle sought to deceive the public, cover-up his decline, and took unauthorized executive actions with the autopen that are now invalid,” said Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.). “Our report reveals how key aides colluded to mislead the public and the extraordinary measures they took to sustain the appearance of presidential authority as Biden’s capacity to function independently diminished. Executive actions performed by Biden White House staff and signed by autopen are null and void. We are calling on the U.S. Department of Justice to conduct a thorough review of these executive actions and scrutinize key Biden aides who took the Fifth to hide their participation in the cover-up. The D.C. Board of Medicine must also review the actions taken by President Biden’s physician to hide his true condition. We have provided Americans with transparency about the Biden Autopen Presidency, and now there must be accountability.”
The report is based on 14 depositions and transcribed interviews with key Biden aides. During the investigation, Oversight Committee Democrats did not consider the question of who was running the country for four years to be worth further inquiry. Democrat Members and staff asked only about 3 hours and 30 minutes’ worth of questions over nearly 47 hours of depositions and transcribed interviews. On average, across the 14 interviews and depositions conducted by the Committee, Democrats spent just 15 minutes questioning each witness.

House GOP Seeks DOJ Probe Into Biden’s ‘Autopen Presidency’
Why It Matters
If Biden’s executive actions are ultimately deemed invalid, the fallout could raise significant constitutional and legal questions. Presidential pardons, including those granted to members of Biden’s family and other political figures, could be challenged or rescinded, raising unprecedented questions about due process, double jeopardy, and the permanence of clemency.

Biden autopen orders should be void — as elderly president’s actions were ‘not all his own’ after health cover-up, bombshell report finds
WASHINGTON — Dozens of Joe Biden’s executive actions “cannot all be deemed his own” after his closest advisers “went to great lengths to prop up” the 46th president as he suffered physical and cognitive decline in office, according to a bombshell report released Tuesday.
The House Oversight Committee staff document — based on more than a dozen interviews with Biden aides — lays out how the Democrat’s “inner circle” took steps to “meticulously stage-manage” his public appearances, lighten his private workload, and even block lawmakers from talking to him.
Biden’s autopen pardons are null and void due to ‘mental decline’, House Oversight Committee says
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have written to Attorney General Pam Bondi claiming that former president Joe Biden’s “cognitive decline” was so severe he may not have been aware of pardons he allegedly signed by autopen.
Conservatives on the committee advise Bondi that the 4,245 presidential pardons and commutations issued by the Democrat, 82, should therefore be placed under review and could be considered invalid.
This would potentially open up prosecution of the recipients, including Biden’s own son Hunter, currently protected by his clemency orders.

Biden staffers exercised presidential powers without authorization, House GOP Oversight report finds
The 90-page report, “The Biden Autopen Presidency: Decline, Delusion, and Deception in the White House,” accuses Biden’s inner circle of running the government in his stead and concealing his medical deterioration through stage-managed appearances and manipulated decision processes. Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) said the findings raise “constitutional and criminal concerns” about the validity of executive actions taken between 2021 and the end of his term in office.

Joe Biden WAS NOT running the show.
Our new report EXPOSES how Biden’s decline was real and his aides covered it up.
Aides didn’t even know WHO was operating the autopen to sign official documents and pardons.

Speaker Johnson: “EVERY executive action signed by the autopen without written authorization from Biden should be voided. The actions of President Biden were not all his own actions. And there are major implications to that, including all the pardons he signed.” pic.twitter.com/N0E5RZKhjh
