On Wednesday, we reported on President Donald Trump ordering the Counsel to the President to investigate "whether certain individuals conspired to deceive the public about Biden’s mental state and unconstitutionally exercise the authorities and responsibilities of the President."

According to the presidential memorandum, the counsel, in consultation with Department of Justice Attorney General Pam Bondi and, if necessary, any executive department heads, is to look into, among other things, "the policy documents for which the autopen was used, including clemency grants, Executive Orders, Presidential memoranda, or other Presidential policy decisions."

The order came as House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer announced he was subpoenaing Dr. Kevin O'Connor, who served as the White House physician during the Biden-Harris administration, as part of the committee's investigation into the Biden decline cover-up.

Later in the evening, multiple news outlets shared the former president's alleged "response" to Trump's order. I say "alleged" because, incredibly, the response came in the form of a written statement:

 "Let me be clear: I made the decisions during my presidency. I made the decisions about the pardons, executive orders, legislation, and proclamations," Biden said in a statement shared with outlets including Axios. "Any suggestion that I didn't is ridiculous and false."

• "This is nothing more than a distraction by Donald Trump and Congressional Republicans who are working to push disastrous legislation that would cut essential programs like Medicaid and raise costs on American families, all to pay for tax breaks for the ultra-wealthy and big corporations," he added in the emailed statement.

Immediately, that prompted questions of "who wrote it?" 

I mean, I can't think of a worse way to respond to something of this magnitude than a written statement. Though in fairness, even a video statement wouldn't quell the questions, considering so much of Biden's presidency (and his 2020 and 2024 campaigns) was tightly staged, scripted, and managed by those around him.

Further, something else unintentionally revealing about the statement is what it did not specifically address:

Bingo. Maybe Comer should add whoever wrote the "Biden statement" to his list of people to subpoena.
