Jake Tapper's Book Exposes Biden Cognitive Decline Coverup - Will Anyone Be Held Accountable?

Will the House Oversight Committee's investigation result in accountability for the cover-up?

Misuse of Autopen. HOC Chairman Comer asserts that Biden's inner circle of advisors were running the show, and using Autopen to sign in Laws which Biden could not understand due to his cognitive state.
That's a crime? Under what statue?

Every executive order Biden he made, he explained why.

No. Statute of limitations has certainly expired.
My question is, should there have been a criminal investigation into Reagan's mental state and FDR's polio?

That's a different matter entirely. This investigation is about a concerted cover-up, similar in some ways to the Watergate break-in/ cover-up.
It's not. You want to go after the blue guy, but not the red guy.
This investigation is not trying to implicate (or even disparage) Biden in any way.
It is indeed designed for that purpose.
The goal is to get some people to admit that they deliberately misled the American people into believing that Biden was mentally fit, when clearly he wasn't.
And you don't want to investigate Trump lying to the public about COVID and the election.
In my opinion no. Biden's cancer treatments are not material to the investigation.
No. That's not what I wrote. My point was, why can't we wait until AFTER Biden gets his cancer treatments done, and then worry about this so-called "cover-up".
 
Talk about a biased poll! :rolleyes:

Not a single proper option. Maybe people creating these polls should try withholding their editorializing of Yes/No responses....
 
That's a crime? Under what statue?
The cover-up, and the misuse of AutoPen are misdeeds, and blatantly corrupt. That's what the House Oversight Committe's job is - to investigate matters that compromise the integrity of the presidency, and the democratic process. It is not a Criminal Court.
Every executive order Biden he made, he explained why. My question is, should there have been a criminal investigation into Reagan's mental state and FDR's polio?
Perhaps with Reagan, but definitely not with FDR, because FDR's polio did not in any way diminish his ability to perform as President and Commander-In-Chief.

It's not. You want to go after the blue guy, but not the red guy.
Reality check needed here. . . I'm not going after anybody.
It is indeed designed for that purpose.
Nonsense. Their intent is get voters to realize what pond scum the democrat influencers are, leading up to the mid-term elections. If the Oversight Committee can create enough distrust among independent voters, that could potentially impact the results of next year's Midterms.


And you don't want to investigate Trump lying to the public about COVID and the election.
I don't want to investigate ANYONE. I have no authority or power to do that.
No. That's not what I wrote. My point was, why can't we wait until AFTER Biden gets his cancer treatments done, and then worry about this so-called "cover-up".
Again, Biden's cancer treatments have nothing to do whatsoever with the investigation on his inner-circle. Postponing the investigation benefits nobody.
 
What did he do to warrant anyone being held accountable?' His ridiculous statements? When has he not made stupid statements? I'm more concerned about stupid people actually believing what he says.
You should pay better attention.

Did he dupe the public the way Jill and Biden's advisors tried to make the entire country believe he was "just as sharp" as ever.?
? How is this any different from every elected and appointed Republican in DC duping the public into believing that Trump isn't losing his mind, when they all know damned well he is?
 
The cover-up, and the misuse of AutoPen are misdeeds, and blatantly corrupt. That's what the House Oversight Committe's job is - to investigate matters that compromise the integrity of the presidency, and the democratic process. It is not a Criminal Court.
No crime was committed, so no cover-up of a crime is applicable. The use of the AutoPen is something Biden certainly CAN authorize, so it's not even a misdeed. As for blatantly corrupt, you must be kidding. Trump's entire administration is corrupt, and he's at the top of the list. Not only has he personally made BILLION$ since getting back into office, but his emoluments violations are completely off the charts.
Perhaps with Reagan, but definitely not with FDR, because FDR's polio did not in any way diminish his ability to perform as President and Commander-In-Chief.

Which statue was potentially violated? I have heard nothing, but conspiracy theories from you. It doesn't matter who used the autopen, if Biden said he was going to issue an executive order, then it is legit.

You just said you want to investigate Joe Biden.
 
I think there should be some sort of bipartisan investigation. It’s more than obvious that people covered up his cognitive decline.
 
We're starting to see the impacts of how people feel about both parties in the growth of those who switch their affiliation to Independent. The problem there is those voters won't be able to vote in primaries, which exacerbates the problem of primaries catering the political extremes of both parties.
FDR wanted the Democrat Party to be a Progressive party and tried to purge Conservatives from its ranks. He wanted the two parties to offer the American people a stark ideological choice. Well, his dream has now been realized, and it’s a nightmare. It’s funny how each party believes that THEY are not extreme but it’s the OTHER side who’s extreme. The reality is that they’re both extreme but too delusional to realize it, kinda like how the villain in the movie never believes he’s the villain but is actually the good guy.

You're not a doctor, a psychologist, a psychiatrist, a neurologist, or a psychoanalyst. Who cares if you say he is losing his mind?

The GOP is going to do whatever they can do keep the coverup story in the minds of voters going into next year.
It's all about political power and keeping control of the House is the most important objective for the GOP.
Otherwise, you can count on the Dems mounting an impeachment attack if they win back the House next year.
 
Didn't recognize my sarcasm.
Your predictable trigger-response did bring me to a realization: all this time, I've only been calling 46 (aka The Real One-Term Mistake) names like "Sleepy Joe" or "Rapey Joe." But to maintain perfect equity, if I'm going to call Harris "Cameldung," I should extend the same analysis to Joe Bidung. Thanks for drawing my attention to my oversight.

Hypothetically Bidung could authorize the use of the Autopen, but is there a record of his having done so? If there is not. then any claim that he made such an authorization has no more documentation than Trump saying that he could automatically declassify materials.

Nice little dance you did there. But no white female politician has ever been called "dung" by any Rightie. It's not like the rest of us don't recognize a racist term when we see it. But you keep dancing and pretending like you didn't mean what you meant.

How do you know? Who told you I'm not? You're not clairvoyant, a mind reader, a wizard, a mystic, or an oracle.
🤣
(I SLAY ME!)
Who cares if you say he is losing his mind?
Why would it matter if I was? You're blind to any negative opinion of your cult leader. You wouldn't accept it if a boatload of the finest psychiatric minds on the planet said he was, but like all cult members, you just won't admit that.

I would suggest you might just open your own eyes and ears, but that would seem to be asking too much of any Trump acolyte.

As long as you proudly fly the Progressive flag, we expect every post to contain anti-Trump content. That's what Progressives are and do.
Show me where negative Trump comments come from and I will tell you if I agree or don't.

Show me a boatload list of the finest psychiatric minds on the planet and I will take your criticisms under consideration. Has anyone been doing anything with those cited criticisms?

What record do you think there needs to be? Biden, an old man with an infirm hand, declares a pile of paper meets his approval for signature and says, "Sign these!". Period. End of story. Why would he sign a document commanding that documents be signed? How stupid is that?

You expect readers to accept the quick findings of an eight-year-old blurb that has no basis in fact?

(from the baseless article)
this is not an attempt to offer a clinical diagnosis of the current occupant of the White House. That would require a personal clinical interview and other procedures.
 
As long as you proudly fly the Progressive flag, we expect every post to contain anti-Trump content. That's what Progressives are and do.
Seriously? Bullshit. Unto itself, my identifying as a progressive does not make me wrong. On what planet does that even make any sense?
Show me where negative Trump comments come from and I will tell you if I agree or don't.
I cited the opinions of the very professionals you claimed I was not! When you face plant in your frittata like that, it's time to surrender.
You've lost the argument. If you can actually listen to one of his extemporaneous speeches, and conclude otherwise, then it begs the question: "What else you don't know?" Trump's mind is totally addlepated - severely. Period. If you think a US President who is asked about important policy decisions should be rambling on and on about windmills and water pressure, then I'm not surprised you'd vote for Trump. Your level of cognition would seem to parallel his own.

I could bury you in even more credible opinions, but you didn't even read the ones I've already provided!
Has anyone been doing anything with those cited criticisms?
Yes - I just did. They are constantly being cited to educate those who insist on remaining deaf and blind to Trump's cascading condition. You remaining deliberately obtuse won't make Trump sane.

Hey - you can tap dance until you open on Broadway, but you're not selling any tickets here. Trump's brain is circling the drain. End of story.

So glad I never voted for Trump. If I did and told you, then that would place me even lower on your ladder of respect for fellow posters. I voted for Nikki Haley.
Never wanted Trump or Kamala, but I am very glad Hapless Harris is not president.
 
Misuse of Autopen. HOC Chairman Comer asserts that Biden's inner circle of advisors were running the show, and using Autopen to sign in Laws which Biden could not understand due to his cognitive state.
Comer is a lying moron from Tex-ass. Nothing he says should be taken seriously.
No. Statute of limitations has certainly expired.

No, it's not.
OK.

This investigation is not trying to implicate (or even disparage) Biden in any way. The goal is to get some people to admit that they deliberately misled the American people into believing that Biden was mentally fit, when clearly he wasn't. And also to get someone to admit using Autopen to sign bills into Law.
Yes, it is. Saying otherwise is dishonest.
In my opinion no. Biden's cancer treatments are not material to the investigation.
Yes, we can wait. Your authorization is not required.
 
Which statue was potentially violated?
I've already explained that it is NOT a criminal investigation. Statutes will not be a factor in this investigation.
I have heard nothing, but conspiracy theories from you. It doesn't matter who used the autopen, if Biden said he was going to issue an executive order, then it is legit.
That's your opinion. The investigation has called upon the ones responsible for the cover-up to come forward and tell the American people what really happened and who was really in charge (it certainly wasn't Joe Biden). They can honor the subpoenas, appear before the HOC, and come clean about the cover-up OR they can refuse the subpoenas, and reveal to Americans the lies and deception from democrats.

Either way, dems are screwed because voters will become aware of the cover-up, and that would likely hurt democrats at the polls in midterms.

"The American people are done being lied to. We’re going to bring the truth into the light, and starting next week, those involved in the cover-up will begin to be put on notice,” - James Comer/House Oversight Committee Chairman
You just said you want to investigate Joe Biden.
BS - I never said that. You fabricated that straw-man.

If there is no crime, what is the point?
 
If there is no crime, what is the point?

Important facts:
• No crime was committed.
• Neither Joe Biden nor ANY members of his family are under investigation.
• There ARE two points to the investigation:

“The cover-up of President Biden’s obvious mental decline is a historic scandal. The American people deserve to know when this decline began, how far it progressed, and who was making critical decisions on his behalf. Key executive actions signed by autopen, such as sweeping pardons for the Biden Crime Family, must be examined considering President Biden’s diminished capacity. Today, we are calling on President Biden’s physician and former White House advisors to participate in transcribed interviews so we can begin to uncover the truth. In the last Congress, the Biden White House blocked these individuals from providing testimony to the Oversight Committee as part of the effort to cover-up Biden’s declining health. Any continued obstruction will be met with swift and decisive action. The American people demand transparency and accountability now,” - HOC Chairman Comer

My opinion:
The HOC's investigation is purposely structured to make American voters (esp. Independent voters) distrust democrats. This distrust should negatively impact dems in midterms, and prevent dems from gaining seats.

Well, by extension I'm also calling all the Bidungs "dung-names," not just Rapey Joe, and not even a Mad Lib could doubt that Jill Bidung is a white female politician, since she and her cohorts took control of the country while their puppet was incapacitated.

Keep feeding me those Mad Lib straight lines; it's loads o' fun.
