The GOP’s obsession with former President Joe Biden reveals no indicators of letting up. After Rep. James Comer’s 15-month impeachment investigation throughout Biden’s presidency failed spectacularly, the chair of the Home Oversight Committee has now latched on to a conspiracy idea pushed by fellow Biden stalker Donald Trump again in March.
“A few of these bureaucrats, these unnamed bureaucrats within the White Home had been utilizing the autopen to signal Joe Biden’s identify on essential issues like pardons and like government orders,” Comer babbled to Fox Information on Thursday.
Comer’s proof contains “whistleblowers within the administration” and Jake Tapper’s new e-book, which claims the now-82-year-old Biden was considerably impaired throughout his last months in workplace.
“It raises lots of questions as to, what was the choice course of and who was forging,” Comer stated. “As a result of if Joe Biden wasn’t authorizing, somebody was forging his identify on some essential paperwork.”
The muse of this newest “investigation” is similar conspiracy idea Trump himself promoted when he claimed Biden was incapacitated whereas president as a result of he used an autopen—a tool presidents have used for many years to signal paperwork remotely. Lower than 24 hours after pushing this idea, Trump himself admitted to utilizing an autopen whereas in workplace.
That is simply the most recent instance of Trump and the GOP’s endless beef with Biden. Following the previous president’s announcement of his Stage 4 prostate most cancers prognosis, Home Republicans launched an investigation into the previous president’s well being whereas in workplace in an additional try and beat that lifeless horse.
Republican lawmakers’ fixation on all issues Joe mirrors their cult chief’s preoccupation with the person he misplaced to in 2020. Simply final month, Trump even used the passing of former President Jimmy Carter as a chance to insult Biden.
Comer’s repeated failures to show the existence of a shadowy Biden household crime syndicate solely highlighted how the Kentucky congressman did the precise issues he accused Biden of doing. Even after Biden dropped out of the race and Trump received the presidential election in November, Comer stored pushing his evidence-free investigation, telling Newsmax he needed to proceed it.
With regards to being the goal of a petty vendetta, it appears Biden’s biggest mistake was being the final president since Barack Obama to win greater than 50% of the favored vote.
