During an interview with Fox News, Comer revealed a significant increase in executive actions and pardons during Biden&#8217;s last 100 days in office, claiming that more activity occurred in that time than in the prior three years. <\/p>\n<p>Comer stated that four staff members who where requested for interviews have sought legal depiction, indicating the gravity of the situation. He emphasized that the use of the autopen and questions about Biden&#8217;s cognitive fitness were acknowledged by all parties involved. His examination aims to clarify who was truly executing these actions if not Biden himself and whether legal accountability will follow. The implications of these findings raise concerns about the abuse of executive power during Biden&#8217;s presidency, especially considering the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/san-francisco-school-board-reverses-decision-to-rename-schools\/\" title=\"San Francisco School Board Reverses Decision to Rename Schools\">controversial decisions made<\/a> in the final days of his term.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>There has been a new layer added to the autopen scandal &mdash; courtesy of Kentucky Republican Rep. and House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/comer-tracked-autopen-users-making-move-get-justice\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Comer spoke with Fox News<\/a> earlier this month, stating he had identified the individuals effectively doing the work of the executive in place of former President Joe Biden by signing executive orders and pardons via autopen.

No one now is denying that Joe Biden wasn&rsquo;t mentally fit to make some of these decisions.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Although each side may disagree on&nbsp;<em>when <\/em>Biden became unable to serve, the last 100 days Comer mentioned were during the last three months of 2024 through <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/michelle-obama-comes-clean-missing-trump-inauguration-vain-imagine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Trump&rsquo;s inauguration<\/a> in January &mdash; well after his disastrous June presidential debate with Trump forced him out of the presidential race and compelled his defenders in the Democratic Party to withdraw their support.<\/p>\n<p>Clearly, the four staffers mentioned have a lot to explain.<\/p>\n<p>More executive action took place in those days than the rest of the term, including the pardons of Dr. Anthony Fauci, retired Gen. Mark Milley, the Jan. 6 committee, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/fbi-analyst-vetted-steele-dossier-dismissed-evidence-hunter-biden-russian-disinformation-gets-brutal-news-bureau\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hunter Biden<\/a> took place during that time and numerous executive orders.<\/p>\n<p>But if these weren&rsquo;t done at the behest of Joe Biden, then who abused the executive power?
