It's been an interesting day for news about investigations of Democrats.
I wrote earlier about the report that a criminal referral had been made to the Department of Justice regarding Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) for potential mortgage fraud.
Now, there's more for the Democrats to worry about. The White House has launched an investigation into the Biden autopen scandal. The investigation is being led by the White House Counsel's Office; however, they are coordinating with the Justice Department.

A senior administration official told Fox News Digital that they are not yet ready to discuss any discoveries, but said NARA already has provided more than 27,000 records to the White House.
The White House is reviewing the communications and the procedures in place around the use of the autopen. But there's a lot to go through.

The question is, did Biden surrender his Article II executive authorities to unelected staffers that the American people don’t know, and to a machine that holds the same legal authority as his right hand, because he wasn’t capable of doing the job?" one official said. "Did unelected staffers, radical staffers, use the power of this machine to radically transform America?"
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt excoriated the Biden team for their alleged actions.
"Joe Biden was the worst, most incompetent, and senile president in our country's history," press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Digital Tuesday. "It has been widely reported that Joe Biden handed the power of the presidency to an autopen controlled by unelected leftist staffers, who were allowed to make terrible decisions that destroyed our country."
The White House investigation will likely not hold back, especially if they are coordinating with the DOJ. So that's likely to increase the chance of finally getting some consequences for the cover-up regarding Biden.
That investigation is in addition to the congressional investigation already looking into Biden's cognitive decline.
In the congressional investigation, House Oversight Committee Chair James Comer (R-KY) has now subpoenaed Joe Biden's former Deputy Chief of Staff, Annie Tomasini. They've also subpoenaed Jill Biden's top aide, Anthony Bernal, who was so powerful on the Biden team. Former Director of the Domestic Policy Council Neera Tanden and former Deputy Director of Oval Office Operations Ashley Williams have both already testified. Joe Biden's doctor, former White House physician Kevin O'Connor, took the Fifth and refused to answer questions.
Bottom line? This gives the Biden team a lot more to worry about.
