Tired of the toxicity of social media? Why not join Ricochet for just $5/month? Think of it as an online bar. Come in, have a drink, hang out, say whatever you want. But don’t badger, bully, or berate the other drinkers. That's our only rule.
Some say it was President Autopen, some say Mr. Magoo, while others say Jill Biden. Clearly, it wasn’t Joe Biden. After Trump won, I was really worried another country would pull some shenanigans. Although the world fell apart during the
autopen administration, it could have been worse here.
Our on-staff medical team seems to agree that a person having metastatic prostate cancer overnight is highly unlikely. With a sitting president, there would obviously be the best medical observation and treatment money could buy. It’s safe to say they knew for a long time.
There has never been a presidential scandal bigger than this, and nobody seems to care. Biden didn’t implode at the debate; he was already incompetent, and everyone knew it. They just decided it was time for him to go and threw him to the wolves. He ran for president while hiding in his basement and won! Absolutely pathetic.
According to Lindy Li, who worked on the Biden team, we didn’t have a president; we had a council, referring to Mike Donilon, Anita Dunn, and Steve Bruschetti. (Go to 22:00)
House Oversight Chairman James Comer has identified the staffers who operated the autopen. “Biden” had signed thousands of pardons and piles of executive orders. He didn’t have a clue what was going on. When confronted about his order to cancel LNG shipments to Europe, he said, “I didn’t do that.” Well, buddy, your auto pen did.
Whoever the president was decided that Joe Biden wasn’t the best faceplate for re-election, opting for the next best empty suit: Giggle Girl.
Our economy was destroyed. We had an invasion from the southern border. With nobody in charge, we now have wars in Ukraine and Israel. Heck, even pirates became a thing again.
We didn’t come out of the Biden administration unscathed, but we’re on a decent track to fix it. Let’s get to the bottom of this faux administration to ensure something like this never happens again. We figuratively dodged a bullet, unlike our president.

And now the ones who did this, who built the whole preposterous creaking machine of lies that was the Biden administration, are furiously demanding that we all just move on, let an old man have his dignity. Now is not the time to start looking into all of this, it would be too damaging.
In other words, when finally caught, the utterly corrupt Democrats claim that they are too big to fail.
I say time for the Truth. No matter how damaging, this can’t be allowed to be swept under the rug. Not if we are ever to believe anything about our government or anything the Media claim.
If we get in now and cut out the cancer that has been growing in our country, we might still be able to end up with something. NOT revealing just what has actually been going on will destroy us.

It seems that if they deconstruct the OughtaPen many of the worst policies could be struck down. How many EO could be found null? Challenging his signature on the worst spending bills seems un-doable, but so many personal opinions turned into Policies. This is medieval politics. I vote for medieval consequences.

If the President didn't direct the autopen to be activated to sign the Presidential pardons, were they in fact signed? As Biden would have had a hard time keeping up with a game of Crazy Eights, who was running that thing?
