Biden Issues Scathing Rebuttal of 'Ridiculous' Trump-Ordered Probe Into His Presidency

Former President Joe Biden pushed back hard against a new White House directive from President Donald Trump ordering an investigation into his use of presidential powers, calling it a distraction from the GOPs push for disastrous legislation.
The probe, launched Wednesday via a Trump-signed memorandum, instructs the White House counsel and Attorney General Pam Bondi to investigate whether top aides during Bidens presidency conspired to deceive the public about his mental fitness, and whether executive authority was exercised unconstitutionally on his behalf. Trump is also questioning Bidens use of an autopen as part of what he called one of the most dangerous and concerning scandals in American history.
Biden dismissed the premise outright in a statement issued late Wednesday. Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency, Biden said. I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations. Any suggestion that I didnt is ridiculous and false.
He accused Trump and Republican lawmakers of using the inquiry to divert attention from their legislative agenda, warning they aim to cut essential programs like Medicaid and raise costs on American families, all to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and big corporations.

At the very least, any senator that served with Joe Biden should be standing up for him. I'll bet Joe personally wished McConnell well when he began having episodes, because that's the decent human being Joe is. Don't even get me started on how Joe felt about John McCain.
F.ck you Felon!

And Biden set it up so Trump could not go after anyone, so he's pissed. In the end, this will go nowhere and just look like the sad little man he is.
