Trump orders investigation into Biden’s actions, claiming cognitive decline
- President Donald Trump ordered a formal investigation on June 4, 2025, into Joe Biden's use of an autopen and his mental fitness during his presidency in Washington, D.C.
- Trump and aligned Republicans initiated this inquiry amid claims Biden's aides may have usurped presidential authority and masked his cognitive decline, despite no direct evidence of forgery.
- The investigation involves House Oversight led by Rep. James Comer and a Senate effort, focusing on Biden's last executive actions, including pardons and executive orders signed possibly via autopen.
- Legal experts note that autopen use is longstanding and legal, and criminal prosecution faces high evidentiary hurdles, while John Yoo suggests the focus should update 25th Amendment laws instead.
- Biden rejected any suggestion he lacked awareness, stating, "I made the decisions during my presidency," while the inquiry continues amid political debate over constitutional and legal implications.
